However, as follow-up has not been standardized, we preferred to use a simple tool, feasible even for patients whom follow-up was provided only out of the university hospital.
Standardized testing drives standardized curricula and standardized pacing.
The scenes created without fractal structure were slightly preferred over the scenes with fractal structure (standardize mean contrast=0.138).
For reasons of standardization and comparability of immunotoxicological results we preferred to use the well-described and broadly accepted macrophage cell line RAW 264.7 as a highly standardized in vitro model rather than primary macrophages.
There are study design frameworks when models not standardized for total lipids, equivalent to wet weight analyses, would be preferred [ 70].
In order to conduct a systematic review, standardized protocol were employed as set forward in PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses); see [32,33].
Standardized effects sizes enhanced comparison across the pain stimuli and were therefore preferred.
The authors concluded that CURB-65 may be preferred over systemic inflammatory response syndrome criteria and Standardized Early Warning Score in the initial prognostic assessment of patients with CAP.
Moreover, males preferred the faces of females with greater general genetic diversity, measured as standardized mean d2 (reflecting genetic distance between parental genomes) at loci outside the MHC [46, H. Lie, L. W. Simmons, & G. Rhodes, unpublished data].
While raw values have an inherent interpretability, and as such, are widely preferred, study results should also include normalized values where possible (i.e., standardized centrality measures).
Preferred use of uncut forest was attributed in part to favorable forage quality, which was positively associated with cattle utilization (standardized β = +0.13) among plots.
