Our score is characterised by low complexity, with only three differently weighed variables, and by the use of a bedside-test for fast and immediate risk stratification.
Here, the shared meaning of the scoring guidelines was a taken for granted aspect of the meeting [ 46]. 'Problematic' scoring was characterised by uncertainty and sometimes disagreement about the score, which called for discussion amongst the team members to reach a consensus.
Thus in one community study patients with normal blood pressure but high anger temperament scores (as characterised by frequent or long-lasting anger reactions with little or no provocation) were shown to have an odds ratio of 2 3 for fatal or non-fatal cardiac events.
IBS-QoL scores were characterised by high variability.
SF-36 scores were characterised by high variability.
Associations between random and actual Townsend and proximity scores were characterised by Spearman rank correlations.
Furthermore, a subgroup of patients with high Gleason scores was characterised by a complete loss of BARK1 protein (P=0.023).
The soundworlds of America and Japan are equally exotic in this French-perfumed Italian score, the first characterised by the bold arpeggio of "The Star-Spangled Banner", the second by brittle pentatonics.
Results showed that (a) the optimum machine settings, identified by the greatest production score (PS), were characterised by a tyre pressure of 138 kPa, a tyre speed of 440 rpm, and a 15 mm spacing between the surfaces of the tyre and the sieve; (b) the optimal betel nut fruit moisture content was 6.31% w.b.
In a chosen subgroup with depression scale scores from 75th percentile and above, i.e. with very mild depressive symptoms or being in an upper level of normal depression score range, cases were characterised by persistent smoking habit, symptoms of fatigue, nausea, freezing, leg edema, lower social activity level and lower gait speed, as well as worse peripheral circulation in legs.
In keeping with the OESIL study, we considered those patients who were characterised by a score of up to 1 to be low risk.
