Due to the fact that the methods of the central laboratory for determining the bacterial count were sensitive enough to consistently pick up even lower bacterial counts as initially assumed during generating the study protocol, it was decided to change the criterion for significant bacteriuria from 104 CFU/ml to the more sensitive threshold of 103 CFU/ml.
Similar data do not exist for other organisms, and we opted for a more sensitive threshold.
This pattern was reversed at more sensitive threshold values; slide positivity thresholds of <65% showed a higher %PPC than the other threshold methods for a given number of alerts per year.
However, it is not recommended to use the more sensitive threshold without any post-processing of the predictions, as in all cases we observed a rapid increase of false positives with only a modest increase of true positives (TPs).
In another study an even more sensitive threshold with a T2* decay of less than 30 ms was proposed [ 32], which may additionally increase the number of IMH+ patients without any visible MVO or HIC.
This leads to simplification in the analysis of anthropometric data [ 5] and enables using more sensitive threshold for growth monitoring, for example, from −3 to −2 height z-score, which has recently been recommended by Dutch researchers [ 15].

The slope of the increase was slightly different among the levels of erosions threshold with the more sensitive thresholds (10 and 20%), increasing more slowly than the more extreme thresholds (50 and 75%).
Using more sensitive thresholds, the estimates were also quite similar across the two studies; 12.2% using the VES and 15.8% using the NVVRS.
We purposefully adopted a more sensitive detection threshold (cycle threshold (Ct) value of 37 38) in order to quantify the lowest background virus level inside the ventilator circuits.
This increase in the number of GO terms found was due to the well known fact that GSA strategies are much more sensitive than threshold-based functional enrichment strategies [1], [10].
If long durations are not cost-prohibitive, then having the threshold be more sensitive (ie, the threshold is a lower number) may be desired, although this should be weighed against the increased likelihood of an early false alarm.
