In this paper we describe methods for deriving risk prediction models from case-cohort data and focus on relevant adaptation of commonly used measures to assess their predictive ability: Harrell's C [ 10, 11], Royston and Sauerbrei's D [ 12], and the NRI [ 13, 14].
A benefit of the screening in terms of relevant preemptive adaptation of the empiric antibiotic therapy was proven only for 1/205 patients.
This process facilitated the selection of relevant questions, adaptation of the language to reflect regional idiom, and informed the structure and content of the draft questionnaire to be tested in the field.
The design of relevant adaptation strategies for water users in irrigation schemes in the drylands of Sub-Saharan Africa requires up-to-date information about the current performance of these schemes in view of rapid changes in climate and land use, population growth, and competing water demands.
Recently genome sequence information of bacteria from high pressure and/or cold environments (including Photobacterium profundum [4], Colwellia psychrerythraea [5], Idiomarina loihiensis [6] and Pseudoalteromonas haloplanktis [7]) has indicated some of the relevant adaptation strategies.
For example, although our relatively qualitative assessment of potential responses of river flows to environmental change in the GYE pilot allowed us to identify a variety of relevant adaptation actions, it did not reveal whether water temperature thresholds for Yellowstone cutthroat trout might be exceeded under either future climate scenario.
One very important and relevant potential benefit of our adaptation of the video conferencing frequency is in regard to the frailty of patients, i.e. their risk of graft failure evaluated by the KTFS [ 6].
The parents and the children were asked to complete a headache questionnaire, which was a German adaptation of the Pain Relevant Response Scale (PRRS).
Searched the literature including peer-reviewed literature, gray literature, personal author collections, and papers recommended by experts to identify additional relevant sources that would inform the adaptation of the framework and our thinking about the M&E of transition.
This is important to highlight in view of the common trend to interpret the differences found in genomes of environmentally relevant microbes as always reflecting the adaptation of the strain represented by the sequenced genome to the place or habitat of isolation.
Ultimately, the DYCAST system illustrates the utility of establishing a biologically relevant, spatiotemporal framework for disease surveillance, and adaptation of the DYCAST method may be useful for detecting other infectious diseases and clustering phenomena.
