At a recapitulatory final meeting ("team review" in Figure 1) the team appraised the translated questionnaire according to four criteria: adherence to the original meaning, significance for TCM, clinical usefulness, and psychological impact on patients.
Based upon the pharmacy refill criterion for adherence (i.e.,≥80% attendance to study medication refill visits), despite a prolonged 36-month period of prophylaxis, participants in our trial had a 78% adherence rate which is similar to the 69 86% rates reported by other clinical trials that provided 6 months of IPT [16] [18].
The second criterion was adherence, in order to find the barriers and facilitators to HIV medical follow-up, a comparison was made between women who interrupted the treatment and those who had a correct adherence.
This survey of 824 children showed a high level of compliance to daily r-hGH administration using easypod™ over a 3-month period, with almost 90% of children meeting the criterion for adherence to treatment.
These criteria included adherence to plastic in standard culture conditions, positive expression of CD105, CD73, CD90 for at least 95%, negative expression of CD45, CD34, CD14 or CD11b, CD79a or CD19, and HLA-DR, as well as ability for in vitro differentiation into osteoblasts, adipocytes and chondroblasts.
Fewer than half of the studies described offloading well enough to assess if they met the offloading criteria and adherence standards proposed by Boulton and Armstrong; 18 of these, only one met their criteria and this had no control group.
The nurse investigates the patient's status concerning the MDD criteria, his adherence to GPs prescriptions, possible side effects of medication, and treatment goal attainment.
In fact the managers did not fully engage with all the learning activities in the e-learning programme and did not all attend the two face-to-face meetings—and these were not included as criteria for adherence.
Looking at the recorded dose history for only those children who provided complete data sets, 87.5% of children met the criteria for adherence to treatment over the 3-month period.
In cell culture, MSCs minimally have to meet the following criteria: (i) adherence to plastic, (ii) the expression of specific cell surface markers, including CD90 (THY-1), CD105 and CD166 and (iii) potential to differentiate into osteoblasts, adipocytes and chondroblasts (Dominici et al., 2006).
