We compare the resulting stellar radius with empirically derived estimates from temperature and brightness measurements, confirming the latter can be biased for stars with ambiguous stellar classifications.
Our estimates of prevalence of self-reported diabetes and hypertension in KG Halli are comparable or higher than bio-medically derived estimates from slums in Bangladesh and Kenya [ 4, 6].
Several studies have measured mosaicism frequency among children ascertained for clinical diagnostic testing (Table 1) and have derived estimates from ∼0.2 1%.
Data concerning treatment efficacy, i.e. transition probabilities and relative risks of exacerbations, were mainly obtained from the Hettle et al. [ 28], who in turn derived estimates from UPLIFT [ 17].
We included losses of quality of life during the acute disease episode, deriving estimates from a recent Public Health England study using EQ-5DY in children up to a year after the illness (Iain Kennedy, personal communication).
For instance, Auray and Fonteneau [ 23] suggested possible group methods using consensus-building techniques, notably the Delphi and the Nominal Group Technique (NGT), to derive estimates from expert opinions on prevalence of hospitalizations, incidence of illness etc.
The problem of deriving estimates from only a small number of data sources is a common problem especially in fields of application where empirical information is sparse due to the rarity of the condition in question.
This equation estimate was highly correlated with peak BrAC, accounting for 76percentt of the variance; it also was validated using a previous dataset (Dougherty et al. 2012) that had demonstrated a very high correlation (Spearman r = 0.86, p < 0.0001) between peak BrAC and its equation-derived estimate from TAC records.
This quota sampling technique was derived from estimates obtained from the 2010 Quarterly National Household Survey [ 22].
These criteria have been derived from estimates based on data from cancer-prone families or from BRCA1/2 mutation families.
This estimate is derived from the estimate of 30 000 new cases of chronic heart failure per annum.
