We used multivariable fractional polynomial modelling (degree 2) to select the best functional form for continuous factors (volume, ICNARC physiology score, and age).
Firstly, where the infinitude of semantic values are taken to model degrees of truth, the very idea of a degree of truth needs explanation.
Fitting multivariate models with different numbers of variables allowed for some insight into the sensitivity of results to model degrees of freedom.
There are no nationwide limits for plutonium in soil; cleanup standards depend on modeling the degree of public access to the contaminated spot.

Thus, these fits had p = 1 model degree of freedom.
Since most children had two milestones or turning points, infancy peak and adiposity rebound, we set the minimum model degree m = 3. Accordingly, we considered 219 candidate models, including 56 models of 3rd-degree, 70 models of 4th-degree, 56 models of 5th-degree, 28 models of 6th-degree, 8 models of 7th-degree, and 1 model of 8th-degree (Table 2).
For our experiments with four time points a cubic regression model (degree = 3) was defined.
Notice, that in this model, degree of inflammation was an independent variable, whereas MVDmax was not independent.
