Pre-treatment included: gender [Male/Female], age [1 105], ethnicity [White-British/BME/Not stated], able to communicate in spoken English [Yes/No], understand written English [Yes/No], source of referral [GP/self-referral], PHQ-9 first score [0 27] and GAD-7 first score [0 21] and postcode converted to Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) [1 70].
Additionally, a descriptor set based on a VARIMAX analysis of physicochemical properties which were subsequently converted to indices based on the BLOSUM62 substitution matrix (BLOSUM) [31].
Additionally, a descriptor set based on a VARIMAX analysis of physicochemical properties which were subsequently converted to indices based on the BLOSUM62 substitution matrix (BLOSUM) [27].Furthermore a descriptor set only describing each AA by a single feature was tested ProtFP (Feature) [5, 28].
All costs were based on data from the Netherlands and were converted to the index year of 2013 according to the consumer price index (CPI, 2013).> -wrap-foot> Cost per couple = unit price times volumes of use.
The resulting 10 speckle contrast images were then converted to speckle index images by calculating their inverse squares multiplied by the exposure time in seconds, so that larger index values corresponded to faster blood flow.
As the cells multiplied, the electrical impedance created by the cells was converted to cell index values corresponding to each well.
Vaginal epithelial cells were treated with different numbers of yeast form C. albicans parental (DIC185) or mutant (hxk1Δ) strains and the impedance was measured for 24 hours and the data converted to cell index (CI) (as described in Section 2.5).
This was based on the method of Sacks for light scattering [ 10] but converted to an index [ 15], using the spread in azimuthal angle of, typically, the sixth order peak at approximately 0.055 0.059 Å−1.
The five domains (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression) are scored on three levels (1, no problem; 2, some problem; 3, serious/extreme problem/unable) giving a theoretical maximum of 243 different health states which are converted to single index utility values (range −0.59 for score 33333 to 1.0 [perfect health] for score 11111), using UK tariff tables.
As before, the rate vector part can be converted to corresponding power index vector.
To facilitate comparison between cultures, these Trep values were converted to replication indices (Friedman et al. 1996) by assigning ARS305 a replication index (RI) of 0 and R11 a RI of 1.0.
