Longitudinal studies may provide better predictors of clinical outcomes in psychosis than a single scan.
One limiting factor in providing such evaluations is the time and expense involved in collecting the phenotypes, but recent research suggests that MIR spectroscopy may provide reasonable predictors that can be measured on many samples affordably (Cecchinato et al., 2009).
In this paper, we propose a "trajectory-based" tissue engineering (TB-TE) approach, based on the hypothesis that time-dependent increases in construct maturation in-vitro prior to implantation (i.e. positive rates) may provide a reliable predictor of in-vivo success.
This suggests that the interactions among genes and resulting combinatorial outputs of individual gene expression may provide a better predictor of such a complex phenotype as patient outcome.
As a result we suggest that the ratio between flagellum and head length may provide a reasonable predictor for sperm swimming speed.
The PCT may provide an effective predictor of conception for couples with an infertility history of <3 years and no identified female causes of infertility (Glazener et al., 2000).
Motivation has a strong direct effect on achievement (Glynn et al., 2007), and, in some courses, students' attitudes may provide a better predictor of success than quantitative ability (Steiner and Sullivan, 1984).
The clinical implication is that HL, as an indicator of cognition, may provide an identifiable predictor of risk aversion that could be accommodated through decision support to minimize cognitive bias [ 35- 37].
Secondly, if as has been argued, some of the adverse health effects of environmental pollution are mediated through psychological mechanisms related to perception [ 9, 14] then measures of perception may provide more useful predictors of adverse health effects.
These factors contribute to the all-cause mortality in hemodialysis patients; thus, measurement of S100A12 levels may provide a sensitive discriminative predictor.
