Despite normal LVSV, the prognosis and clinical outcomes of such patients are impaired compared with healthy comparators.
The objective of this study was to examine whether euthymic late-life BD patients have lower BDNF levels than healthy comparators.
17 Elevations in AUC and Cmax were not found to be significantly different from their healthy comparators.
Based on these data, we performed a ROC analysis using the QFT-IT-negative cured TB subjects and the healthy controls as comparator groups.
To evaluate whether a prolonged test could improve the detection of LTBI, we set up the test using cured TB patients (with a microbiologically diagnosed past pulmonary disease) who resulted QFT-IT-negative and healthy controls as comparator groups.
In order to analyze the performance of our test, a ROC curve was constructed with different cut-offs of percentage of IFN-γ secreting cells upon stimulation with ESAT-6/CFP-10 choosing M. tuberculosis-infected (active TB and latent TB infection) and healthy individuals as comparator groups.
Phase I single-arm, open label clinical trial, with historic cohorts of FGR and healthy pregnancies as comparators.
The second study, of Chinese subjects primarily with early stage CKD, was designed to look for differences between CKD subgroups and did not include healthy patients as a comparator [ 22].
Seventy-eight men with uncomplicated T2D and fourteen healthy men with comparable age were included, in this randomized, double-blind, active comparator intervention study.
