In both 10fCV and independent validation, a testing sample score was considered as high risk, if it was higher than the median score of the training sample and low risk otherwise.
In these models OHIP-14CN total scores were dichotomized using the sample median score as the cut-off point: total scores less than 5 (the sample median score) were considered as 'not impaired OHRQoL'; total scores ≥5, were considered as 'impaired OHRQoL'.
Unlike scoring on previous versions of the Stanford-Binet test, SB5 IQ scoring is deviation scoring in which each standard deviation up or down from the norming sample median score is 15 points from the median score, IQ 100, just like the standard scoring on the Wechsler tests.
Like all current IQ tests, the Wechsler tests report a "deviation IQ" as the standard score for the full-scale IQ, with the norming sample median raw score defined as IQ 100 and a score one standard deviation higher defined as IQ 115 (and one deviation lower defined as IQ 85).
The sample median score for suicidal ideation was low (0.42, on a 0 to 3 rating), but 7% of cases (n = 124) expressed ideas of self-harm.
In the population sample, the median WEMWBS score was significantly higher for men than for women (p < 0.05), as hypothesised (Table 3), and differences were also observed across age groups (p < 0.01), with higher scores observed in people aged 16 24 and 55 74.
The distribution of SF-36 bodily pain scores was negatively skewed; 140 (18.5%) patients reported a score of 100, indicating no pain at all, and the sample returned a median pain score of 52 (IQR 1=25, IQR 3=84).
The median cytoplasmic product score was 150 in oropharyngeal tumour samples compared with a median product score of 38 in non-oropharyngeal samples (permutation test of equal density P-value <0.001).
Indeed, the median miRNA activity score in tumors is higher than the median activity score in normal samples for 97% of the miR-seeds.
Tumour samples had a median composite score of 7.5 (range 0 12, with 12 being the maximum score possible), while the mean composite score of normal pancreas ranged from 0 to 1.
