Therefore, CHC may be operationally more feasible.
There may be operationally superior methods of deriving confidence intervals that would improve the performance of GLMM.
Whilst increasing centre size may lead to increased PD experience and improved peritonitis prevention, it is also conceivable that excessively large centres may be operationally inefficient leading to suboptimal infection control procedures and increased peritonitis risks.
In the context of a regression paradigm, response shift may be operationally defined in terms of residual variance in the QOL change score that can be explained by changes in appraisal, after taking into account standard influences.
The first two exercises may be operationally valuable to health service managers who have little control over the resources available to them, and as a result face troubling decisions.
In cancer, levels of specific miRNAs have been reported to be significantly down- or up-regulated in various cancer types indicating that these regulatory RNAs may be operationally defined as either tumor suppressor genes or oncogenes depending upon the cellular context [ 9].
