Interestingly, by increasing the difficulty level of the visual task, our results also indicate that the eye movement changes from a serial reading-like (systematic) to an isotropic (random) searching strategy.
Generally speaking, the more the available serial biomarker readings, the more reliable a classification is.
A single reading of cardiac markers on any day of the first week of ARDS may not be different from serial daily readings.
LCA uses the patterns of serial biomarker readings available for subjects, together with baseline covariates and disease outcomes, to divide subjects into a number of mutually exclusive subpopulations (classes).
The left ventricular function and dimensions were assessed by serial echocardiographic readings measuring LVEDV, LVESV, EF and RWMI at 24 hours of admission and after 3 months and 6 months.
The LV function and dimensions were assessed by serial echocardiographic readings measuring left ventricle end diastolic volume (LVEDV), left ventricle end systolic volume (LVESV), ejection fraction (EF), regional wall motion scoring index (RWMI) at 24 hours of admission and after 3 and 6 months.
Reading this essay is a serial process you read one word after another.
As already discussed, the absence of serial blood sugar readings in our study limited our ability to describe more fully the relationship between blood sugar and mortality.
