No a priori sample size was required for this qualitative study [37], as adequacy of sample size was defined by saturation of identified themes [36], [37].
This includes determining the adequacy of data required for health impact assessments [ 26] and proposing research to fill critical data gaps.
In a randomized, unblinded study of liver biopsies, the time required for training, procedure time, and tissue adequacy were superior for automated biopsies vs. aspiration biopsies, with similar complication rates [ 14].
Indeed, given the considerable time and labour required for human observers to assess slides for cell adequacy and MCM-2 numbers, an automated platform for quantifying ICC-stained slises is now an important requirement.
When Ishikawa Bank closed its books for the year ending September 2000, it reported a 6% capital-adequacy ratio, easily exceeding the 4% required for domestic banks.
While we therefore believe that a model of the complexity studied here is indeed required for obtaining practically relevant results, this implies a trade-off with having to assess the adequacy of the adopted structural assumptions and parameter values.
There is, however, no direct relation between the sensitivity of receptors and the adequacy of behaviour, because the usual level of stimulation is considerably greater than the minimum required for stimulation of the sense organs.
Now, whether practical commitment to the truth of a given faith-proposition does or does not venture beyond adequate evidential support will be relative to assumptions about (a) where the level of evidential support required for 'adequacy' should be set, and (b) just how firm and decisive propositional faith-commitment needs to be.
These metrics aim to assist the regression tester in monitoring test-coverage adequacy, reveal any shortage or redundancy in the test suite, and assist in identifying, where additional tests may be required for regression testing.
Hemodialysis, per se, and the adequacy of hemodialysis measured by Kt/V have been shown to play an important role in improving anemia and reducing the ESA dosage required for anemia correction in patients with ESRD [ 7– 11].
Perfection is not required, only adequacy.
