It has been tried in terms of optimal conditions (Papineau 1987), contexts where the term was learned (Dretske 1981) asymmetric causal dependence (Fodor 1990), but no such account has done a convincing job of preventing classifications that intuitively seem to be errors from being built into the purported extensions of our terms.
To prevent a false-positive diagnosis of agenesis, we selected 9 as the minimum age because calcification of teeth has usually not been completed by this age [1], and to prevent classification of late mineralized teeth as congenitally missing, final longitudinal panoramic views were also used to confirm a diagnosis of hypodontia.
The nephrologist concluded that the first patient's biopsy was inconclusive due to the presence of scar tissue, which prevented classification.
Exclusion criteria were incomplete information on year, parity, plurality, birth weight, or mode of delivery, because missing information in these variables would prevent classification into the Robson groups.
To prevent classification and observer bias, matching of ED visits was completed with the investigator (LO) blinded to the ED diagnosis and visit details.
It is developed to adhere to basic concepts of underlying cause in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD), although gaps in ICD prevent classification of perinatal deaths solely on existing ICD codes.
To address this, we conducted searchlight analyses in which the mean level of activation had been removed for each trial this prevented classification from being achieved as a result of a relative increase in signal across all the voxels within a searchlight to one condition over another.
Finally, MEPS includes only 3-digit ICD-9 codes, preventing a classification of Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes.
Unfortunately, treatment protocols are not well-described in most studies, preventing strict classification and comparison between treatment programs.
