Site characterization is a unique problem of geotechnical engineering that utilizes both prior information (including engineering judgment) and project-specific information from test borings, in-situ testing, and/or laboratory testing.
An important advantage of using an NGSP-certified method is that the laboratory can provide specific information relating HbA1c test results to both mean glycemia and outcome risks as defined in the DCCT and UKPDS (44, 147, 187).
NCSP standards stipulate that patients should be given specific information about any testing that is additional to chlamydia and that informed consent for such testing is obtained.
There were no practical training sessions available between the two evaluations and no specific information on the tested AED devices was given.
Finally, because of the risk for changes in the epidemiology of established arbovirus diseases in the region (11 ), the group identified the need for the following: an inventory of arbovirus surveillance activities, including specific information on laboratory testing; updated technical guidance on surveillance and mosquito control procedures; and dissemination of best practices.
The bulk of information need not be presented all at once, but can be subdivided into manageable portions, starting from general information about benefits and limitations of PGT, followed by introductory information about the tiers and concluded upon demand by specific information about the diseases tested for within selected tiers and associated risks and implications.
We also assessed tactile acuity (two-point discrimination thresholds) and sensorimotor performance (pegboard performance) in a subset of subjects, but these scores did not correlate with joint position sense performance, indicating that the test reveals specific information about joint position sense that is not captured with pure sensory or motor tests.
The articles need to include specific information on performance of the diagnostic test during the studies, including testing at baseline and repeated testing, blinding, and definition of disease progress.
A web-based randomized controlled trial was conducted in which the online DAs on cholesterol and diabetes were compared to short, non-interactive and non-test-specific information on self-testing.
Research is needed to address specific information gaps regarding risk behaviours, testing patterns and HIV incidence and prevalence in women.
