Objective: The purpose of this study was to identify the threshold of fetal arterial oxyhemoglobin saturation that predicts neonatal acidosis and adverse outcomes.
Identifying the threshold of endurance exercise beyond which patients are more at risk for developing atrial fibrillation is an important challenge, and further research is needed to provide recommendations for patients, particularly athletes.
Multiple doses of KA treatments were used to identify the threshold of KA-mediate seizures.
This was useful in identifying the threshold of detection with an optimal trade-off between diagnostic sensitivity and specificity.
In addition, we have not studied the characteristics and budget constraints in our healthcare system to identify the threshold of the incremental cost per QALY that the society could afford.
When considering supply, we can attempt to estimate the optimal price of a QALY by searching to identify the threshold of the incremental cost per QALY that the budget characteristics of the institution facing the expense could afford [ 5, 6].
Thus, it would be useful to provide a practical tool for physicians to enable them to easily identify the threshold of normal BP values for adolescents according to age, gender and height.
We also applied estimates for improving sensitivity by using a combination of ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with mammography compared with mammography alone borrowing information from previous studies (Berg et al, 2008; Kuhl et al, 2010) to identify the threshold of high-risk categories requiring alternative image techniques.
Since at least some rationing of care appears inevitable, it is important to identify the thresholds of its influences in order to minimize its negative effects on patient outcomes.
More studies are necessary for identifying the thresholds of audio and video quality prediction errors at which the impairment-factor-based variants start to perform worse than the quality-based variants.
