To enable systematic assessment of the performance of commercial and prototype OAE equipment under various measurement conditions without a need for recruitment of the test subjects, a DPOAE generator that produces a reliable and stable response is proposed.
Recruitment of diagnostic tests overall and between non-critical and critical groups was assessed using Chi squared tests.
First, the number of connections between the areas was mathematically limited and was thereby restricted to feed-forward connections given the posterior-to-anterior recruitment of the tested areas [12].
We used the LiblineaR package in R to minimize Equation 4 and then to predict the VE recruitment classification of testing data [46].
The experiments were repeated for all 22 compounds with the addition of either 2 nM isoproterenol for cAMP formation or 200 nM for β-arrestin recruitment to test for antagonism; none of the compounds significantly inhibited activation by isoproterenol (data not shown).
Figure 1 shows the process of recruitment and testing of subjects.
The study was reported according to STARD guidelines which includes method of recruitment of patients, orders of test execution, and numbers of patients undergoing the tests under evaluation and the numbers of patients with the reference standard [22], [23] (Figure 1).

Recruitment of animals for testing was based entirely on owner willingness.
Based on previous meta-analyses [12] [14], potentially relevant covariates for our meta-regression model included: prospective or retrospective study direction, recruitment method, blinded interpretation, type of test, specimen type, reference standard, and data resolution.
