We thank the reviewers for bringing this to our attention and we have changed the end of the Introduction accordingly to stress the rationale for doing so: "Other covariates that may influence infectivity such as asexual parasite density (measured by microscopy) and host age were also included to increase the ability of the model to predict human to mosquito transmission".
7 10 Respondents stressed that the rationale remains apt today, and that this approach provides data unrivalled in terms of epidemiological quality, 9 21 22 and which is of use for health service planning.
Despite this, the architects of the original EBM paradigm explicitly downplayed several significant components of the decision-making process: "Evidence-based medicine de-emphasizes intuition, unsystematic clinical experience, and pathophysiologic rationale... and stresses the examination of evidence from clinical research" [ 23].
As regards the difference between palliative sedation at the end of life and so-called slow euthanasia, the rationale behind stressing the difference is insufficiently demonstrated, e.g. due to an overlooked ambiguity in the concept of intention.
As regards the difference between palliative sedation at the end of life and so-called slow euthanasia, the rationale behind stressing the difference is insufficiently demonstrated, at least partly due to an overlooked ambiguity in the concept of intention.
The increased susceptibility of primarily glycolytic muscle to oxidative stress is the rationale for studying glycolytic skeletal muscle in the present work, as this fiber type would likely be the most severely impacted by injury.
Histopathology agreements were in place between MRC and all diagnostic hospitals outlining the trial rationale and stressing the importance of sending blocks promptly to the central laboratories.
Instead of seeking a market rationale for arts patronage, the authors stress the benefits for civic virtue.
The proposed concept of "multilevel cycle" helps understand the relationship between respiratory diseases and oxidative stress, thus clarifying the rationale for using NAC in COPD.
Quality vs quantity Sleep hygiene strategies for individual patients Personal stressors, physiological reactions to stress Relaxation rationale and techniques Passive, manipulative, assertive?
