Effects were seen in a minority of studies, but not consistently showing differences in mean scores or changes in sample discrimination.
It is "one of a small minority of studies" that have doubted the value of health information technology, said Dr. David Blumenthal, a professor at the Harvard Medical School.
Only a minority of studies were able to demonstrate this statistically significant reduction in symptoms.
A minority of studies (n = 5; 16%) used individualised HRV data i.e.e
A minority of studies (14; 45%) reported both frequency and time domain data (Table 3).
A minority of studies (12; 39%) excluded patients with chronic comorbidities that are commonly associated with autonomic dysfunction.
A minority of studies reported blinding (31, 40%), and this included for subjective outcomes (17/31, 55%).
However, according to the findings of Romero and Ventura (2010) survey, only a small minority of studies can apply the discovered knowledge to institutional planning processes.
A minority of studies (19/57; 33%) provided data on organ dysfunction related to sepsis severity, such as APACHE-II or SAPS II.
A minority of studies (9; 29%) reported frequency data in normalised units together with absolute values, in keeping with established recommendations.
The results of this review show that only a minority of studies considered the review of the scales' items by members of the target population (e.g., Uzunboylu and Ozdamli 2011; Zheng et al. 2010).
