Previous studies described a threshold level of proteins to promote tumorigenesis, which indicated that the expression level of one protein needs to reach the threshold level before promoting tumorigenesis [ 26, 27].
A RFG score ≥35%% has been described as a threshold of clinical rehabilitation effectiveness [ 10, 17, 23] and no higher distribution has been published to date.
The first of them describes a threshold mechanism for CD95-induced apoptosis implying that this process is completely stopped when CD95L concentration is below the critical value.
As previously described, we used a threshold of 0.5 to decide the class membership and computed sensitivity and specificity for each classifier.
These findings are in agreement with previous pyrosequencing studies, which have described a mutation detection threshold of 5 10% of mutant cells (Ogino et al, 2005; Dufort et al, 2009).
For every parameter previously described, a set of threshold values was defined in order to be able to distinguish between sleep stages.
In the original publication describing geNorm [ 14], a threshold of 0.15 or lower for the pairwise variation was proposed to indicate that inclusion of an additional reference gene is unnecessary.
It includes importing the data, data quality assessment, preprocessing of the data and identifying ChIP-enriched regions in a similar way as described in [ 16], with a threshold of 1 on the normalized log2 ratios.
In critically ill patients with multiorgan failure, the T/I Ca2+ ratio appears a specific prognostic biomarker and, similarly to that described in liver failure patients, a threshold of 2.4 seems to reveal severely impaired hepatic function and should not be exceeded when RCA is used.
A strong rejection was defined as follows: denoting R s the set of triplets of a multigenic tree (supermatrix or BUCKy), and R b the set of triplets of the 2,700 bootstrap gene trees (100 per locus), a triplet of R s was said to be strongly rejected if it contradicted at least one triplet of R b and failed the χ2 test described in [ 56] with a threshold of 0.9.
