Given the lack of reliable methods for practitioners to estimate patient BW based on visual parameters or physical exam, BW estimation based on CT dose modulation may have potential use in clinical radiology and polytrauma patients.
While EEG monitoring in patients receiving neuromuscular blocking treatment may be of some value given the lack of other methods for monitoring sedation depth [ 5], there is presently no evidence or rationale for the use of BIS or entropy in monitoring or titrating sedation of ICU patients.
Clearly there are some additional uncertainties in applying the same assumptions to IAP but it was considered that this extrapolation is sufficiently similar to established practice for outdoor air that it is a reasonable way forward, especially given the lack of alternative methods.
Given the lack of established processing methods, using induced sputum cells in an ELISPOT assay, an optimization phase using 28 patient samples was undertaken (see figure 1).
We used repeated measures ANOVA given the lack of well-established methods for estimating power using GEE.
Given the lack of concordance on methods and genomic data provides the best prognostic results and its utility, our purpose is to characterize the prognostic power of models obtained from different genomic data types, cancer types, and algorithms.
Given the lack of a failsafe method to eliminate tick exposure, communities should reinforce measures that people can take to reduce exposure to Lyme disease bacteria, such as avoiding tick habitats, performing tick checks and showering after being in areas that might harbor ticks.
Given the lack of evidence for didactic methods, selecting interactive, effective educational techniques remains the critical point to consider when designing CPE interventions.
In addition, the unorthodox methods used (complete sequence conservation over short sequence fragments) are hard to evaluate given the lack of a history for such methods.
Given the lack of correlation between the standard method of analysis (tumour-to-background ratio) or quantitative analysis with survival, the study does not indicate that Tl SPECT has added anything significant to prognostication for these patients.
