[33] Our results were remarkably similar (59% for open-placebo; 35% for no-treatment control), suggesting that open-label placebo in the context of a persuasive rationale may show comparable efficacy to established IBS treatments.
These propositions are presented in the context of the related theoretical rationale drawn from the literature and the relevant empirical support from the body of research conducted within our collective research efforts.
The results of such investigations would address further criteria of surrogacy (International Conference on Harmonisation, 1998), and in the context of a strong biological rationale could shed light on the dynamics of cerebral malaria neurovascular pathogenesis in the period between coma onset and recovery or death.
Feminist empiricism postulates that sexism and androcentrism both constitute social biases which could be corrected through strict adherence to valid methodological standards in scientific research when testing hypotheses and interpreting data; in other words, within the context of the rationale.
The observation that even healthy subjects experience deterioration in cardiac function and energy metabolism in the context of sustained hypoxia represents a rationale for this pathological sequence.
The objectives of this narrative review are to 1) provide a general overview of the current knowledge of fatigue in the context of fibromyalgia, 2) suggest a rationale for assessment of fatigue, and 3) describe non-pharmacological and pharmacological management modalities studied in the context of fibromyalgia that also improve fatigue.
The remainder of this paper is structured as follows: the next section provides background and rationale in the context of smart cities. Section "An abstract architectural design of the cloud-based big data analysis" provides a data analytics service architecture and design for analytical processing of big data for smart cities.
Our results in the context of prior studies provide a strong rationale for larger trials that are adequately powered for smaller effects on urine albumin excretion or trials that are conducted in participants who take ACE/ARB therapy.
This approach has previously been described in the context of diabetes-related traits (29) and the rationale for the formula for approximating SMDs to ORs is described in more detail in Chinn et al. (30).
Although most of the published data linking cerebral ischemia to hypocapnia have been in the context of induced hyperventilation, there is little physiologic rationale to suggest that spontaneous hypocapnia may be any less harmful than induced hypocapnia.
