The results of this study suggested a survival benefit for patients receiving early treatment with methotrexate and 5FU LV (MFL), but there were methodological issues: only 57% of patients randomised to expectant treatment received chemotherapy; chemotherapy was not standardised; outcomes were poorer than expected in the expectant treatment group; and no formal QoL analyses were published.
Europe's largest maker of video games, Eidos P.L.C., warned that this year's results would be well below expectations because of product delays and Christmas sales that were poorer than expected.
The retailer said annual profits were likely to be poorer than expected as it had ploughed millions of pounds into a multimedia advertising campaign and taken on hundreds more vans to back a new delivery service before Black Friday, which falls on 27 November this year, but could not be sure how shoppers would respond.
However, among girls, diagnostic performances of BMI-based references, WC references, and the 1993 HK reference are poorer than expected, i.e., lower sensitivity with poorer diagnostic agreement.
Because the BIS monitor is applied to only one side of the head, significant changes may be overlooked or correlation between SR-BIS and SR-EEG may be poorer than expected.
Behaviours associated with negative emotions such as 'regret', 'disappointment' and 'frustration' have been well documented in humans when outcomes are poorer than expected (Amsel, 1958; Jensen, Stokes, Paterniti, & Balsam, 2014; Marquis, 1943; Zeelenberg, van Dijk, Manstead, & van der Pligt, 2000).
In relation to the intervention, we would also recommend that some HIV prevention education be included as even though these women's husbands had mostly died from AIDS, their level of HIV knowledge was poorer than expected.
While the prevalence of lung cancer is not particularly high, outcomes are poorer than expected because of the poor quality of care for those who are screened and treated; outpatient evaluation "is an efficient, slow, and potentially dangerous process in cases in which the probability of a cancer diagnosis is high" [[ 57]:167].
The relationship between subject's height and lung weight was poorer than expected; in fact, prediction of total lung tissue only from subject's height and sex would not include other relevant anthropometric parameters such as body shape, which are extremely complex to quantitate.
