The strength of the CAP trial approach was in enabling researchers to carefully word vignettes to conceal trial arm and screening status, standardise terminology and include the same level of detail across trial arms, while providing sufficient information for accurate determination of UCD.
Our study showed that SpidersRUs was preferred over the other two, particularly in areas of screen layout and sequence, terminology and system information, and learning to use the system.
Reichenbach introduced the terminology of "screening off" to describe a particular type of probabilistic relationship.
Initially the term 'isometric multi-joint test' was searched in Google Scholar, with the first 100 articles sorted by relevance and screened for variations in terminology within their titles, key words and text terms.
Initial terminology Breast screening (mammograms) detects changes of cells in the breast as well as finding breast cancers.
This opens the possibility that experts may sometimes be speaking at cross-purposes about what is important in breast screening, despite using similar terminology.
Box 1 Description of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and treatment options* Initial terminology Breast screening (mammograms) detects changes of cells in the breast as well as finding breast cancers.
Terminology from medical screening could be useful: detection rate (DR – the proportion of truly negative trials that are stopped early) and false-positive rate (FPR – the proportion of trials with modest treatment effects that are stopped early).
A conclusion of these models is that, taking therapy into account, the observed breast cancer incidence and mortality would be inconsistent unless some cancers preferentially detected by screening mammography had, in the terminology of one study (Fryback et al, 2006), 'limited malignant potential'.
For example, clinical policies, terminology, workflow and EHR screen structures tend to work differently across clinical locations.
