Currently, dengue fever is the most important re-emerging mosquito-borne viral disease, with the major proportion of the target population residing in the developing countries of the world.
A number of important questions center on the recipient population: What proportion of the target population is receiving the subsidy?
The success of the dissemination strategy depends on what proportion of the target audience is reached, and what effect the information has on their behavior.
It causes a high harmonic SAR because the proportion of artifacts is too small compared to the proportion of the target (harmonic) and the interference (percussive) sounds.
It causes a low percussive SAR because the proportion of artifacts is too high compared to the proportion of the target (percussive) and the interference (harmonic) sounds.
By increasing uptake of surveillance systems, surveillance data will represent a greater proportion of the target population and increase our understanding of the extent of the injury problem in specific settings.
For injury surveillance data to be useful for injury prevention purposes it must be both high-quality and representative of a large proportion of the target population (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [2001]).
For this study we defined 'reach' as the proportion of the target population (representatives from 78 clubs) who attended an information session about the surveillance system or had phone/email contact with a research team member expressing interest in using the system.
The proportion of the target region that was successfully sequenced at least once represents the proportion of the target region that we were able to capture i.e. the completeness of the library.
One of the great advantages of delivering IPTi is that it relies on an existing, well established delivery strategy such as the EPI scheme that already reaches a high proportion of the target IPTi recipients across all malarious countries.
To provide a broader test, we applied the same computational approach to the RefSeq mouse mRNA database (see Methods), asking what proportion of the target sites experimentally validated by Miranda et al. [9] we recovered.
