Subjects are classified as high, moderate and low risk, and the treatment protocols are determined on that basis.23 Guideline on caries-risk assessment and management for infants, children, and adolescents was recommended by the AAPD Foundation, documenting biological factors, protective factors, and clinical findings in the record.
Correspondingly, better lower bounds on the gossiping time of non-systolic protocols are determined in the directed, half-duplex and full-duplex cases for Butterfly, de Bruijn, and Kautz graphs.
Besides, the number of rounds of message exchange required by all of the extant SC protocols is determined by the total number of processors in the network rather than by the actual number of faulty processors in the network.
Injection rate used for the three experimental protocols was determined proportionally on the basis of the calculated volume of contrast material.
The outage probability of the protocols is determined based on the SNR parameter for different types of relays.
The protocols are determined and loaded into the device by a registered nurse (RN) and modified by a nurse practitioner (NP) overseeing the care.
The relative efficacy of the various protocols was determined by tumour size at the experimental end point and eradication of established tumours (>60 mm).
Five parameters in the assay protocol were determined as factors that potentially affected assay variability significantly.
Some of the criteria in this study's protocol were determined arbitrarily because of the lack of published reports on dose findings for weekly chemotherapy regimens.
Plans for analysis, definitions of stressors and outcomes, as laid out in this protocol, were determined a priori by our study leadership team in consultation with contributing study investigators, who provided input via conference calls and email.
