Sentence examples for stratified testing from inspiring English sources

The article includes suggestions for improvements to diagnosis, including stratified testing for the most common mutations before screening for the rarer ones, and discussion of new and old animal models that have been developed to study and understand disease mechanisms and for the exploration of possible therapeutic strategies.

SNPs that deviated from HWE (minimum exact test for HWE [54], [55] and stratified test for HWE [56] p-values <0.001), with call rates <95% or SNPs with MAFs <5% were removed from the analysis.

While the loss of power resulting from the use of stratified tests can be avoided by matching in the design of the case-control studies, many genome-wide association studies make use of readily available, general purpose control groups.

Thus, taking account of the independence of X and Z in the model avoids the loss of power of the stratified test as compared with the test which disregards the stratification, but it leads to no gain in power the two tests become identical.
