Jammer is a device that emits energy at pre-defined intervals, aiming to disrupt network operation.
Sampling in the suboxic layer was performed at 0.15 – 1 m intervals, aiming to obtain closely spaced data for the distribution of the measured chemical parameters.
It is assumed that whenever antibiotics are prescribed they will be used in doses and administered at time intervals aimed at optimizing their pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic properties [ 21].
A standardized schedule of Ringer's lactate was then used for all patients, involving staged reductions at specific time intervals, aiming for maintenance fluid therapy after 8 hours.
The TNM staging system by the International Union against Cancer (UICC) is applied worldwide and revised regularly, with intervals aiming at a compromise between up-to-date information on the one hand and providing continuity by avoiding too short-lived revisions on the other hand.
A sample of 150 infants will enable us to estimate the mean of any neurobehavioural measure employed in this research at any time point to within +/−0.16 standard deviations (based on a 2-sided 95% confidence interval, Aim 1), and to identify correlations between observations as small as 0.2 (Aims 2 and 3), with 80% power (based on 5% significance).
Re-testing of herds after the identification of a 'standard reactor' or an 'inconclusive reactor', at two-month intervals also aims at reducing the likelihood of misclassifying animals due to this effect.
During this interval that aimed to separate consecutive trials, participants could only wait until the next trial started.
The prognostic method uses an estimate of the missing SEM, while the interval method aims at considering the best and worse cases.
For those in the GM condition, the goal-setting interview was supplemented by five follow-up mentoring telephone calls from the researcher, which took place at bi-monthly intervals; the aim of these calls was to review progress with regard to the selected goals, problem-solve regarding obstacles to progress, encourage and reinforce success, and support maintenance of change.
