The definition of BMI-based obesity employed is gender and age specific as proposed by Cole and colleagues [ 20], which provides cut off points for body mass index in childhood that was based on international survey and linked to the widely accepted adult cut-off points for overweight and obesity (BMI of 25 and 30 kg/m, respectively).
ROC analyses provided cut-off scores, indicating an optimal discrimination threshold between 'healthy' (reference population) and 'psychiatrically ill' (psychiatric outpatients).
Body composition data from a female reference group (n = 62, mean age 29 years) provided cut-off values for defining sarcopenia.
The scores for the questions related to each of the three subscales were added to compute a subscale score, which was then compared to the provided cut-off points for medical professions to establish the corresponding level of burnout [ 32].
According to the Italian norms a value of age- and education-adjusted total MoCA score lower than 15.5 is suggestive for presence of cognitive decline; the Italian norms also provide cut-off values for five cognitive domains [33].
This study provides cut-off points for adults for various levels of PA intensity using the Vivago® wrist-worn accelerometer measuring every minute.
The results of this study will be of help to interpret the VSP-A AND KINDL-R questionnaires by comparing with the general population and also provide cut-off points to define adolescents with health problems.
ROC curves, shown in Figure 4, were constructed for each of the nine features (see 'Materials and methods') using either the benign serum values to provide the cut off or the values from the age matched healthy individuals.
Cole et al. provide international cut off points for body mass index for overweight and obesity by sex in childhood (2 18 years), based on international data and linked to the widely accepted adult cut off points of a body mass index of 25 and 30 kg/m.
OrChem enables similarity searching with response times in the order of seconds for databases with millions of compounds, depending on provided similarity cut-off.
Furthermore, this is the first study having assessed trending ability of the WI-WO technique, and provided with cut-off values above which EELV changes may be considered as meaningful.
