On the other side the false positive cases would have the effect of diminishing estimate of the true increased risk.
This study also may have had negative exposure confounding causing diminished effect estimates.
Allowing some degrees of freedom in camera motion requires tracking the target objects to be diminished or estimating the camera motion (e.g., panning motion [16, 17]).
Poorer survival in people with both histories of cardiovascular disease and LEA compared with those with cardiovascular disease without LEA suggests that selective mortality may have diminished the estimate of the effects of risk factors such as smoking or hypertension (K.S., unpublished data).
Manipulation of any of these parameters one at a time across reasonable ranges can diminish damage estimates by as much as 84% or, in the case of extending the time horizon with the Review's low discount rate, increase damage estimates by 900%.
Therefore, we could not use a design based on mark-recapture to determine if, in fact, our sampling protocol produced stable, increasing, or diminishing prevalence estimates over successive trapping sessions.
Thus, our reciprocal diminishing returns estimate (= the regression coefficient b) differs from the saturation estimate (= the number of intervals) of Panissal-Vieu and Drake.
However, in SPs the respective estimates diminished by at least 0.30 log10 (a two-fold difference).
Because our results showed consistent trends between pancreatic cancer and dose and duration of alcohol exposure and, as noted earlier, underreporting would have diminished the risk estimates toward the null, recall bias may have had limited influence.
