The idea is that scores from different trials might be compared, for example in multicentre trials.
Quantitative comparisons of chemicals in one assay system can already give valuable information when compounds are compared, for example, in read-across procedures as used in the European Union chemicals regulation law Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) or in the preselection of drug candidates for further development.
We furthermore recognize the limitations of collecting robust qualitative data using a survey format as compared, for example, to conducting in-depth interviews, which invariably provide more detailed information with greater nuance.
Despite the appreciably lower incidence of ALK mutations in NSCLCs when compared, for example to mutated BRAF alleles in melanomas, the strong oncogenic activity of EML4-ALK offered a solid pre-clinical rationale for therapeutic targeting (McDermott et al, 2008).
This requirement is, of course, absurd, for what kind of advantage, in the cosmic scheme of things, do people give Earth as compared, for example, with the planet in orbit around the star 51 Pegasi (the first exoplanet ever discovered, in 1995)?

Fully 30% of Londoners will be watching "every day", as compared – for example – to 22% of respondents in Wales, and 25% in the north.
99mTc-Labelled radiopharmaceuticals, compared with for example In-labelled compounds, may improve the quality of images and radiation safety for patients and the staff as a natural consequence of this isotope's physical properties.
"In 2011-12 Liverpool will still receive a central government grant of £796 per head, compared for example to £125 per head in Wokingham," he said.
"In 2011/12 Manchester will still receive a central government grant of £713 per head, compared, for example, to £125 per head in Wokingham," he said.
