Hence, in this steady, we considered negative values of θ r.
Values <0.15 were considered negative, values ≥0.15 positive.
We considered negative values of use (caused by storage and the like) uninformative and excluded them from further analyses.
Values <1.3 are considered negative, values between 1.3 and 2.67 are considered indeterminate and values ≥2.67 are considered positive for advanced fibrosis.
Samples presenting S/P values less than or equal to 50%% were considered negative, S/P values between 50 and 60%% were considered doubtful and S/P values greater than 60%% were considered positive.
Titers >1 160 were considered positive, values <1 40 were considered negative, and a value of 1 80 was considered doubtful (9 ).
Sera with values below 30% were considered negative, sera with values between 30 and 40% were considered inconclusive, and sera with values greater 40% were considered as positive.
Specimens with relative light units/cutoff (RLU/CO) value < 1.00 were considered negative; specimens with RLU/CO value ≥1.00 were considered positive for one or more of the carcinogenic HPV types detected by the test.
An ISI value of 0 1 is considered negative, while an ISI value of > 1 is considered positive, with the 4 groups (i.e., > 1 3, > 3 6, > 6 9, > 9 12) indicate an increasing level of expression intensity and rate.
If a subject's trial value comes less than this cut-off, then it may be considered negative (normal), and if value comes greater than or equal to cut-off value, then it is considered positive (diseased).
