BD, GDS, DS contributed to the development of the research question and methodology, acquisition of unpublished data, and interpretation of the results.
JO and VG contributed to the development of the research methodology, acquisition of unpublished data, derivation of charts and tables and interpretation of the results.
Comparisons between upstream and downstream regions of each ORF were performed with CLUSTALW 2.0 and custom PERL-scripts (http://www.perl.com), by the methodology proposed by Souza R.C. (unpublished data).
These values are subject to internal reports only (the last report was in 2007, unpublished data), and lacking proper methodology reference, are of limited use and do not allow comparisons to other countries.
The body mass estimate of 40 kg for Andalgalornis was made following previously published methodology [45] and submersion of scale plastic models [43, unpublished data].
Chromosomal mapping of SNP markers was performed in another recombinant inbred line population (unpublished data) using a Statistical Machine Leaning methodology (Triticarte) [ 27].
We excluded abstracts, conference proceedings, and unpublished data as part of the search strategy methodology for the larger programme of research, 16 owing to the number of studies potentially eligible and the lack of important details in their short text.
The change in both final diagnosis and diagnostic confidence was only a slightly smaller magnitude than our earlier experience documenting the change from planar to SPECT/CT bone imaging (unpublished data from 2008 on 524 consecutive cases using the same methodology).
With the aim of identifying the transcriptomic changes associated with apple root responses to infection by Pythium ultimum, transcriptome profiling using RNA-seq methodology was performed with seven sampling points extending from 0 96 h post-infection (hpi) (Zhu, unpublished data).
The detailed bioinformatic algorithm will be described in another publication dealing with both the methodology and implementation (A. Spriggs, S. Stephen, Q.-H. Q.-H.D. Llewellyn, I. Wilson, J. M. Taylor, unpublished data).
