In conclusion, our meta-analysis shows that PCT is a helpful marker in identifying bacterial peritonitis, Although PCT performs as well in PD patients as in cirrhotic or severe hepatitis patients, use of a common cut-off value may further enhance accuracy.
Alternatively, predicting patients with MDD separately from those with bipolar disorder may enhance detection accuracy further, as a next step in a larger sample.
A suitable and universally acceptable approach may enhance information accuracy (prediction capability).
Recognising the relative contribution of neurodegenerative and vascular causes, as well as their interrelationship, may enhance predictive accuracy.
We assessed the quality of syndromic malaria diagnosis in rural Sierra Leone and identified factors that may enhance its accuracy.
Reported in this issue, a study by Brozokova and coworkers [ 1] demonstrates that protein expression profiling may enhance our accuracy of detection and prognostication in breast cancer.
Adding time and the accompanying mosaic changes as variables may enhance the accuracy and utility of population-scale analysis of human traits and disease.
2, 3, 6, 17, 18 Ongoing development of the newest imaging techniques, such as the use of a melanoma-specific PET tracer ([18F]ICF01006), may enhance the accuracy of imaging and subsequently decrease the FN rate.
Although this addition may enhance the accuracy of PPH estimation and its timely management [ 8] but its time consuming nature, the very limited improvement in blood loss accuracy assessment and its requirement to more advanced knowledge and training could limit its use in low resources setups.
As alternative methods like serum and tissue sampling of angiogenic peptides, measurement of endothelial cell proliferation, cell adhesion molecules and proteolytic enzymes as well as dynamic contrast enhanced MRI become available, these may enhance the accuracy of the measurement of angiogenic activity in solid tumours.
