In cases of hypothermia, the blood temperature can be corrected after the measurement and the results recalculated.
Twelve publications had some sections of their results recalculated before input into the meta-analysis [ 34- 39, 39, 40, 42, 44, 45, 48, 49, 54].
and the results recalculated at each step in order to identify the threshold giving the greatest separation of curves with the lowest p value.
The studies that had some of their results recalculated to make them suitable for entering in a meta-analysis (-0.54) [ 34, 36, 37, 39, 42, 48] had similar effect to the overall analysis.
However, both the exercise study with freely moving telemetered dogs showed a complete correction for HR and temperature by the proposed correction formula, and the results recalculated from literature studies tabulated in this study are qualitatively supportive of the results reported in animals and in humans in cases of both hypo- and hyperthermia.
Since the last measurement point may have had a large influence on this result, we recalculated the effects of time without this measurement after 60 months, and still found a positive effect of time (B = 0.17, P = 0.002), and a negative effect of time squared (B = −0.006, P = 0.007).
Extracts were diluted with solvent and obtained results were recalculated assessing the dilution factor.
In an attempt to resolve this issue, some of the percentage biodegradation results were recalculated.
While the WEF does not make any adjustment to methodological changes, the IMD states that "whenever there is a major change in methodology, all results are recalculated for the past 5 years in order to ensure a high degree of compatibility with past results".
Mr. Lynford admits that the figures, which seem amazingly precise, are based on a standard set of assumptions, which can be changed and the results automatically recalculated.
