The method can be generally applicable in exploring the sensitivity of protein epitopes to an agent or condition of interest.
A case series is a descriptive report on a series of patients with a condition of interest.
Such functional analysis may help to elucidate the biological function of a miRNA implicated in the condition of interest.
A total of 120 T2*-weighted volumes were acquired during the word generation task, resulting in 60 volumes per condition of interest per subject.
A total of 212 T2*-weighted volumes were acquired during the landmark task, corresponding to 48 volumes per condition of interest per subject.
A total of 324 T2*-weighted volumes were acquired during the faces task, corresponding to 96 volumes per condition of interest per subject.
They defined the gold/reference standard to be "the best available method for establishing the presence or absence of the condition of interest".
The positive predictive value is the proportion of people who test positive (i.e. are 'positive' on ITIS) who actually have the condition of interest.
The target condition of interest was chronic Chagas disease.
In this design, each condition of interest is compared with samples taken from a standard reference.
Stratified by condition of interest (pharyngitis, rhinosinusitis, acute bronchitis, and exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease).
