Datasets may also be discrepant due to dissimilar recording criteria and practices at different patient care sites, as a patient might have positive lab results for influenza, but not have the corresponding ICD code recorded at one site, and vice-versa at another site.
While the overall accuracy of Koa estimation is good (R2 = 0.957), estimates may be quite discrepant for specific chemicals.
Therefore, results may be partly discrepant from previous studies due to differences in approach, cognitive measures, and genotyped SNPs.
It may be that discrepant findings are partially due to the fact that measures of these positive psychological resources do not directly assess positive affect, which may be a more robust correlate of ART adherence and other health behaviors.
21 These perceptions may be consistent or discrepant, but both are important predictors of safety behaviour.
The agreement score is a simple, non-chance-corrected statistic that can be easily calculated and potentially used in order to provide some evidence whether there may be raters whose behaviour is discrepant compared to that of the majority.
The possibility that these lurking variables may be the source of discrepant results calls for more robust methods in IS research.
Therefore, the differential impact of EDS on glucose metabolism according to obesity status may be responsible for the discrepant effect of OSA in subjects with or without obesity in the current study.
The inconsistent results for the MAPT H1 haplotype are probably due to small sample sizes in both studies; however, there remains the possibility that misdiagnosis of CBD or PSP patients as PDD or alternatively mixed Tau and Lewy body pathologies may be contributing to the discrepant results.
