Sentence examples for measuring occasion from inspiring English sources

The aim was to investigate if there would be any variation in radiographic classification of English Bulldogs as tracheal hypoplastic or non-hypoplastic, depending on measuring method, chosen cut-off ratio, observer, measuring occasion or recumbency.

TD/TI and TT/3R ratios were thereafter calculated for each measuring occasion.

When using <0.127 for TD/TI in combination with <2 for TT/3R as cut-off for tracheal hypoplasia classification, not one single dog was classified as hypoplastic by both methods, and all observers at every measuring occasion.

Kappa, observed, positive, and negative agreements were calculated between observers and measuring occasions.

When comparing Pearson's correlation coefficients between individual observers' measuring occasions for the TD/TI method, the highest correlation for all three observers was seen between the 2nd and 3rd occasions (range 0.96-0.97).

Number of dogs classified as hypoplastic by each reader in RLR and LLR radiographs and for the different cut-offs at occasion three are presented in Figures  1 and 2. Reporting mean ratios was not the purpose of the study, however when calculating correlations also mean TD/TI ratios were obtained for all nine measuring occasions and for both RLR and LLR radiographs.

One infant had acceptable data from all 5 stages, while 7 infants had acceptable data from 4 stages, 10 on 3 stages, 8 on 2 stages, and 16 infants had technically acceptable data from only one measured occasion.

We calculated the theoretical footprint of the CRNP based on a recent simulation and analyzed the practical radius of a CRNP for the northern Tibetan Plateau by measuring SWC at 113 sampling locations on 21 measuring occasions to a depth of 30 cm in a 33.5 ha plot in an alpine meadow at 4600 m a.s.l.l

TD/TI and TT/3R ratios were calculated and correlated between measuring occasions.

The same radiographs of each dog, both RLR and LLR, were evaluated at three different occasions (in total nine measuring occasions) with a minimum of one day between the measuring occasions.

Cohen's kappa, total observed agreement (PO), positive (PA) and negative agreement (NA) were calculated between all nine measuring occasions (inter- and intra-agreement) for each RLR and LLR radiograph and each method using previously published cut-off ratios of <0.127 for the TD/TI and <2 for the TT/3R method as classification of tracheal hypoplasia.
