"I have no sense of standardizing what goes on here.
The final model was further assessed for goodness of fit (Hosmer-Lemeshow test), points of influence (standardized differences in parameter estimates due to deleting the corresponding observation) and clinical and biological plausibility.
Characterization of this residual flexural capacity is generally performed by means of standardized three-point bending tests on notched specimens (NBN EN 14651) and is further used in the constitutive model for the Mode I crack opening of SFRC, needed for design calculations.
(2) Z i, j = X i, j - m ~ j ŝ j = X i, j - m ~ j (IQR / 1. 349 ) j where m~ is the median, ŝ j is the estimated standard deviation that corresponds to the observed inter-quantile range (IQR) of the transition values to time point j, standardized by the IQR of a standard normal distribution (m e a n = 0, s = 1) which equals 1.349.
Therefore, the first objective of the present study was to determine whether a rapid, standardized point-of-care NGAL assay correlates with the research-based assay.
The study had the double aim of determining whether a rapid, standardized point-of-care NGAL assay correlated with the research-based assay.
The amount of laser irradiated at each point was standardized by the constant speed of the device tip being moved on the desired root section/side.
The definitions of each scale point were standardized as follows: 0 = not present; 1 = doubtful whether present, and not interfering with life; 2 = definitely present and of moderate severity; 3 = severe or incapacitating.
In the other three trials, due to their double-blind, double-dummy designs, INR monitoring was done through standardized, encrypted, point-of-care devices that provide INR reading (real or sham) to the site investigators.
The relative proportion of each OTU at each time point was standardized in order to estimate the difference between OTUs at each time point.
