Confirmatory quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) analysis was performed on samples from 9 OA individuals to confirm differential expression of 85 genes identified by microarray.
Therefore, differences in seroprevalence rates between different populations must be interpreted with caution [ 31], because demographic variables, such as age, are related to the prevalence, and because the assays vary in their sensitivity [ 1] in the absence of standardized commercially available confirmatory assays, such as reverse transcription-PCR.
Following reverse coding of individual items where appropriate, confirmatory factor analysis and reliability analysis were performed to determine that individual items in each of the 15 pre-specified scales loaded on a single factor (Table 1 and more detailed results available from authors).
Thus, as indicated by Carleton et al. in their recent paper performing confirmatory factor analysis, if we change reverse-worded items to straightforward items, then it would become clear that in fact the BFNE is a unitary factor structure scale that conforms to the theoretical basis for the scale without risking loss of sensitivity from its item removal [ 11].
3 However, the adoption of this reverse algorithm has increased the number of discrepant results between the screening and confirmatory tests.
For confirmatory testing, the relative performance advantage of IPDFT and Hybrid is reversed.
Next, confirmatory HPV typing was done using a Luminex-based system (cutaneous HPV) and 2 reverse hybridization line probe assays (LiPA) (genital and β-HPV) [ 14– 16].
* Reverse-coded The final factor analytic step validated the E/CFA model by estimating a full confirmatory factor analysis model as suggested by E/CFA results.
Increased availability of automated testing has recently led many laboratories to switch to a reverse sequence algorithm (RSA) in which a treponemal test is conducted first, and if positive, followed by a confirmatory nontreponemal test [ 36].
If the results of these four confirmatory antibody tests were discrepant, sera collected during the acute phase of illness were processed using real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assays (RT-PCR) for the detection of viral nucleic acid as described elsewhere [ 17] combined with virus isolation in cell culture.
Confirmatory message received in N.Y.

Since I tried Ludwig back in 2017, I have been constantly using it in both editing and translation. Ever since, I suggest it to my translators at ProSciEditing.
