Taken together, our key recommendations for methodologies that would increase understanding of invasive plant impacts are as follows: Studies should be designed to combine large-scale observations of invasions in natural areas with controlled removal or addition experiments that can help to elucidate cause and effect.
Recommendations for the methodology of tropical model ecosystem experiments are discussed.
The objective of Phase IV of the JIP was to generate experimental rainout data for non-flashing experiments, and to develop recommendations for the best methodology to predict rainout [total rainout mass and its spatial distribution ('distributed' rainout)].
In the same way, the first kind of philosophy of biology I have described the use of biological examples to work through general issues in the philosophy of science sometimes feeds back into biology itself through specific recommendations for improving biological methodology.
Recommendations for standardising the methodology are given in the present review.
This evidence will be used as a springboard for discussion at a meeting with key European stakeholders and experts with the aim of reaching a consensus on recommendations for cost-effectiveness methodology.
However, while recognising these limitations, we consider that the body of evidence summarised in this review is sufficient to allow certain conclusions to be drawn about the effectiveness of the interventions and to provide recommendations for improving the methodology in future trials.
The purpose of the survey was to test the format of the CA, not the particular clinical content of the example used (for example, the survey included questions on the amount and type of information presented, but not whether the clinician agreed with the recommendations for treating bronchiolitis or methodology in producing the CA content).
The results of the current study suggest that although the STROBE checklist includes recommendations for outlining the matching methodology when reporting a matched case-control study, these comprehensive epidemiologic guidelines may require an additional section that outlines the proper statistical techniques to be employed when conducting a matched case-control study.
To improve the understanding and consistency of this process, the AAPM TG-218 report provides recommendations for tolerance limits and methodologies in patient-specific IMRT QA.
