Our study focused on calculation of plasma RAGEs concentration only, since we presume that confirmation of association of sRAGE and esRAGE plasma levels with preterm labor would result not only in future research, but above all as an introduction of a new clinical diagnostics tool.
Although imaging findings, particularly with CT and PET, can suggest the correct tumor stage, imaging is imperfect in this regard; enlarged and/or hypermetabolic lymph nodes may require sampling for confirmation of presumed tumor stage.
With regard to dementia, PCPs may have different reasons for referring to an NP in case of presumed dementia, e.g. for confirmation of diagnosis, differential diagnosis, assessment of neuropsychiatric comorbidity, and/or determination of the medication pattern.
Viral ARTI signs and symptoms are widely presumed to be aspecific but confirmation of this assumption is lacking.
Accurate diagnosis is essential for treating suspected malaria cases, but in many malaria-endemic regions fever is commonly presumed to be malaria without confirmation.
Numerous times when my impetuousness demanded an immediate confirmation of what I had presumed to be an obvious truth, but clearly was not obvious to my contact.
This is of particular relevance in malignancies such as bone and soft tissue sarcomas, which have a high propensity for lung metastases; pulmonary nodules detected on imaging are presumed to be metastatic often without histological confirmation.
The U.S. Embassy in Baghdad said it presumed that hostile fire took down the craft but said confirmation would come only after investigation.
It was presumed that those officials, like Mr. Brennan, whose selec tion requires confirmation by the Semite would take office when the President is inaugu rated for his second term Jan . 20 if they are approved by then.
Patients with presumed diagnoses on the basis of imaging but without histological confirmation were excluded.
Subjects were excluded from further analysis if excised polyps were not recovered for histological analysis, or there was no histological confirmation of polypoid lesions when expert colonoscopists left presumed hyperplastic polyps in situ.
