Recent research found a third of gay men had experienced some form of anti-fat bias, even though most would not be considered overweight using body mass index guidelines (not that it is acceptable at other times either).
The prescribed CQ-index guidelines were applied during the development of the CQI A&E [ 14, 15].
The recommendations include adherence to physical activity (≥150 min per week), alcohol intake (≤1 drink per day), and body mass index guidelines (<25 kg/m).
26 For each of the three exemplar index guidelines we systematically searched the BNF to identify drug-disease warnings for guideline recommended drugs, taking account of the predefined 11 conditions (the other two index conditions and the nine others).
The Saint-Gallen guidelines [ 1], National Institute of Health guidelines [ 2] and Nottingham Prognostic Index guidelines [ 3] as well as the AdjuvantOnline! decision-making tools [ 4] use a combination of these prognostic factors to adapt adjuvant treatment based on the prognosis prediction.
The expert panel used the BNF to identify potentially serious interactions between drugs recommended by each of the three index guidelines and drugs recommended by any of the 12 guidelines (as two drugs recommended in the same guideline can interact).
Although target-date funds have won a special blessing from the government as a safe place for companies to put workers' 401(k) money, the industry has no solid indexes or guidelines for assessing their performance.
BOP: Bleeding on Probing; CAL: Clinical Attachment Loss; CRT: Caries Risk Test; CEJ: Cementum-Enamel Junction; DMFT index: Decayed, Missing, Filled Teeth index; ICH guidelines: International Conference of Harmonisation guidelines; GM: Gingival Margin; ORAL-D study: The ORAL Diseases in hemodialysis study; PPD: Periodontal Probing Depth.
Two passive system parameters (rubber path structural damping and disturbance moment arm) emerge as key design variables that drastically change the performance index, and guidelines are developed for desirable path interactions.
Two search methods were implemented in addition to full-text search: (1) concept-based search, which relies on pre-indexing the guidelines in a clinically meaningful fashion, and (2) context-sensitive search, which relies on first semi-structuring the guidelines according to a given ontology, then searching for terms within specific labeled text segments.
