Here, the absolute AUC value was even higher than the AUC based on all trials, indicating at least equal sensitivity and specificity using this specific trial window.
And then, three years ago, Boston Ballet dealt with a more specific trial: the reduction of its main company by nearly 20 percent, to 41 dancers from 50.
The specific trial that Mr. Taubes used as a springboard for his article represents the media reporting of preliminary results of a small study not yet presented, unpowered to examine clinical endpoints, using unclear imaging techniques in a population not representative of the typical patient receiving medication for high cholesterol.
Instead of using a specific trial function with undetermined coefficients, polynomial expressions containing a power-law term with an undetermined exponent are used.
Although the simulation results come from a specific trial setting, the methods described in this paper are generally applicable to other trials.
Although this specific trial doesn't explicitly seek to make decisions around the practices of other on-demand companies, Liss-Riordan noted they "might tweak their practices along the way" of this trial.
For a specific trial aiming to identify the best or the worst among three treatments, a properly selected BRAR algorithm and its implementation parameters are able to gain ethical and efficiency benefits simultaneously.
A major conclusion of this session is that implementation considerations are intimately related to the architecture of a specific trial and should be addressed practically and early in the design phase of any randomized trial addressing a palliative care question.
Analysis of the peak HR-OR confirmed that the controls were indeed displaying the response on at least one trial of the session, albeit not consistently on any specific trial.
The essence of the method is that instead of using a specific trial function with an undetermined coefficient for the deflection as in the ordinary Rayleigh method, here one uses a function containing a power-law term with an undetermined exponent.
Wednesday's hearing into the linked cases of brothers Jonathan and Reginald Carr and a third defendant in a separate double murder -- collectively known as Kansas v. Carr -- tackled specific trial procedures leading to a death sentence.
