Although radionuclides, protocols and evaluation methods varied, our results are comparable with those of others, with mean absolute deviations below 10%.
Data concerning HER2 status in FMTs are highly controversial with values ranging from 5.5%to90%0% of positive tumors probably due to different protocols and evaluation methods [ 17, 19, 20, 22, 23, 38, 40].
It is evident that none of these 21 completed reviews, or 7 review protocols, incorporates formal economic evaluation methods (i.e. a cost-consequences, cost-effectiveness, cost-utility, or cost benefit analysis).
The sampling intervals, protocol, and data evaluation method were the same as mentioned above.
This paper outlines the BCHCP process evaluation methods; the BCHCP RCT protocol is the subject of a separate manuscript.
On the technical side, the ACE methodology applies the key economic concepts of 'opportunity cost'marginalnanalysissis' and a 'clear concept of benefit' using standardised evaluation methods clearly documented in an evaluation protocol [ 9, 12, 13].
Different evaluation methods enable the exploration of each component through protocols of motor perturbation (mechanical disturbance), sensory stimulation (sensory manipulation), and/or cognitive disturbance (e.g., virtual simulation, dual task).
External evaluation methods of Dementia United are being developed jointly by the universities of Salford and Manchester.
"Evaluation methods" includes some experiments comparing both evaluation methods.
