This linkage strategy simplifies examination of the full continuum of care as well as longitudinal studies.
Because all other variables were held constant, this strategy allowed examination of the effect on folding caused by bilayer structural changes occurring during the phase transition.
Multilevel analysis (or the hierarchical linear modeling method, HLM method) was used as an analytical strategy, allowing examination of group-level and individual-level factors [ 13].
Therefore, an initial assessment associated with a pilot study, such as the one described in this manuscript, can indicate the feasibility of an initiative, while a more complex evaluation strategy, including examination of technical issues, impact on practice, and cost, is more suitable for long term assessment.
In conclusion, a strategy of examinations in the diagnostic workup of PG/phaeochromocytoma could be to perform FDOPA PET/CT as first-line examination, except in patients with clinically aggressive forms or with SDHB mutation in whom FDG (or FDA if available) should be preferred.
This required a thorough review of existing service delivery strategies, including examination of skill-mix issues.
The design, sampling strategies and examination techniques of the cohort have been described previously (Boker et al., 2001).
Country-specific strategies require examination of the underlying factors for health worker shortages, analysis of the determinants of health worker motivation and retention, and testing of innovative initiatives for maintaining a competent and motivated health workforce.
Recruitment strategies and examination procedures of the GNC were tested in 2012 in a variety of pilot studies conducted during the Pretest 2 phase, featuring 18 recruitment centres across the nation.
