Analysis with a series of techniques and spectroscopic methods may be the most appropriate way to increase the usefulness of information that is gained from simple soil tests.
Unfortunately, Messick's unitary concept may exclude vital evidence contributing towards this current evaluation, and thus, Bachman and Palmer's (1996) concept of usefulness is most appropriate, because it incorporates additional test qualities within the evaluation framework that will be addressed in this review.
Although structured SMBG is beneficial in poorly controlled, noninsulin-treated type 2 diabetes, there is no evidence of its usefulness or of the most appropriate SMBG strategy and utilization of data in patients with lower HbA1c who are not at their glycemic target.
The present study was designed to assess the sensitivity, negative predictive value, and accuracy of intraoperative sentinel lymph node mapping by means of a radio-guided method in patients with nonsmall cell lung cancer to find the most appropriate definition of sentinel lymph node and to evaluate the usefulness of different particle sizes of radiocolloid.
In our opinion, such limits of agreement do not preclude the potential usefulness of cardiac output measurement using NICO, although the above-mentioned limitations must be kept in mind and the technique is to be used in only the most appropriate patients.
We determined the most appropriate number of classes by examining six commonly used criteria, including the Akaike Information Criterion AICC), the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), the sample-size adjusted BIC (SSABIC), Lo-Mendell-Rubin Likelihood Ratio Test (LMR-LRT), entropy (a measure of the appropriateness of classification), and the usefulness and interpretability of the latent classes.
It is therefore important to consider the usefulness of the crowdsensing initiative when deciding on the most appropriate incentive for a crowdsensing campaign.
Using the PetaJakarta system as a case study, this section presents an exemplary discussion of how the concept of SPECTRUM (i.e., socioeconomic factors, privacy, effort, commercial-interest, term, requirements, usefulness, and money) can be applied in adopting the most appropriate type of incentive mechanism for real-world crowdsensing applications.
The following pieces of information were retrieved from this database suggesting its usefulness for taxane-based cancer drug research and for mining the most appropriate taxane for clinical development.
The objectives of our study were to design, develop, and implement a new computer application based on the local epidemiologic analysis of bacterial susceptibility to antibiotics and to assess the usefulness to physicians of the information that it offers for selecting the most appropriate antibiotic treatment in ICU patients with suspicion of nosocomial infection.
