In other words, we excluded studies that used hospital discharge records, voluntary reporting by patients, national hospital databases, or national causes of death databases where coding for ADRs was used to select cases, so as to minimize variability in estimates caused by ADR detection methods.
Using the same talkers, we also recorded deliberate, voluntary laughs (henceforth Emitted laughter) in the absence of humorous stimuli.
The activities of the rectus abdominis, external obliques, internal obliques, and transversus abdominis were recorded during voluntary contractions of the PFMs.
During the first six months of prospective surveillance, rigorous daily medical record reviews identified 92.6% of the adverse occurrences we recorded, and voluntary reports by providers identified 38.5% (surgeons reported 18.3%, inpatient rounding team reported 23.1%, and conferences discussed 6.1%).
The sEMG signal recorded during voluntary dynamic contractions may be considered as a zero-mean Gaussian process s(t)εN 0,σ s) modulated by the muscle activity and corrupted by an independent zero-mean Gaussian additive noise n(t)εN 0,σ n).
As we found between-group differences in the EMG variables assessed on the basis of signals recorded during voluntary but not electrically elicited contractions, it is possible to localise functional impairment in FM at a higher level than that of the muscle membrane.
We reviewed all medication events reported through an established voluntary event recording system for adult neurology inpatients at a tertiary referral center over a 2 year period.
All sessions were conducted by the primary author (LP) who provided an overview of the study and the interview guide and reviewed ethical and procedural aspects for voluntary participation, recording, transcription and data validation.
EMG activity was recorded during maximum voluntary isometric contractions (MVIC) of the TA, GA, RF, and BF using the Biodex Multijoint System®, and GM using manual muscle testing position.
To verify the neuromuscolar equilibrium induced by dental contact, the standardized sEMG activities of right and left anterior temporal, masseter and sternocleidomastoidal (SCM) muscles were recorded during maximum voluntary clench.
