BED has proven sensitive for the detection of HIV recent infection but are vulnerable to misclassifying established infections as recent [ 10], though test efficiency can be improved with adjustments for false positives due to low CD4+ cell count, antiretroviral use, and advanced clinical disease [ 11- 13].
Internal consistency is high and the scale has proven sensitive for detecting clinical changes [ 37].
The standardized and calibrated RT-PCR assays quantify gene expression of human cytokines proved sensitive and specific for the investigation of cell behavior at the molecular level and the newly established CARTA software, a reliable tool for rapid data handling.
EIA, second-round PCR and EM proved sensitive methods for rotavirus detection whereas first-round RT-PCR and LA did not.
These methods have been proven sensitive enough for HPV genotyping and methylation sequence analysis in published studies 23 39 53 and in our own laboratory.
Fluorescence spectroscopy proved particularly sensitive for the detection of variations in composition among lamps and between areas on the same object, and was used to classify objects in different groups using principal component analysis of excitation emission spectra.
The OPB has indeed proved very sensitive for the detection of new primary lesions.
This result indicates that the NTI, being less affected by the cognitive reserve than an index of global functioning such as the MMSE, may prove more sensitive for the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, in particular in highly educated subjects.
Electrochemical methods have proved to be sensitive for the determination of organic molecules, including drugs and related molecules in pharmaceutical dosage forms and biological fluids and their oxidizable property (Padmini V. 2010; Hegde R.N et al. 2008).
These criteria are used in day-to-day clinical practice at Gulab Devi Chest Hospital, and have proven to be sensitive for the identification of patients with drug-resistant tuberculosis: thus, there is a rationale for assuming that patients who did not fulfil these criteria are likely to have drug-sensitive disease.
