In this evaluation of roughly 25% of the Austrian TNF-blocker patients, initiated in 2006, a great number of patients appeared to be far below the usual thresholds for disease activity applied in clinical trials.
Due to the high computational effort associated with black-box optimisation, where the number of CFD evaluations scales roughly linearly with the number of design variables, the explorable design space is very limited: In our current practice, these methods cannot afford more than ten design parameters.
We now illustrate how GTO would approach the same problem, following the steps in table 2. The first three evaluation steps correspond roughly to the three fundamental questions of the model for improvement in figure 1, and are designed to find an appropriate solution to the problem.
With Democrats running Congress and Mr. Bush's troop increase due for an intense re-evaluation in September, roughly 50 lawmakers have tromped through Iraq this summer, and their impressions are having a profound effect on the debate.
We collected reviews of registrant-submitted toxicity studies, known as data evaluation records (DERs), for roughly 400 chemicals from the U.S. EPA's Office of Pesticide Programs OPPP) within the Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxic Substances (OPPTS).
The sharp drop in inspections and evaluations last fiscal year — to roughly 10,600 — is only half the number EPA conducted at its peak in 2010, and continues a downward trend that began in 2012.
The carbon sequestration ability of wetland can be roughly evaluated from the amount of carbon fixed through plant's photosynthesis, but the decomposition properties of plant litter returning to soil are also essential to its evaluation.
Using QSI-induced damage to replace LVI-induced damage provides a roughly equivalent strength evaluation in static compression tests but exaggerates fatigue strength estimation in compression fatigue tests.
This view also visualized posterior structures crucial in the evaluation of trauma patients—in roughly the same proportion of participants (35%).
To keep the evaluation time reasonable (it is roughly quadratic in N), we kept the value (N = 18) for the evaluations whose results are shown on Fig. 3, and which are close to the observed limit values.
