In both studies, the primary endpoint was achieved.
In addition, based on technical difficulties encountered in reliably quantifying VAT and the relatively large amount of nonquantifiable studies, the primary efficacy end point was changed to peak VO2, with significant measures incorporated to minimize the influence of placebo effect.
For all the studies, the primary outcome measure is body mass index; secondary outcomes, moderators and mediators of intervention include diet, physical activity, home and neighborhood influences, and psychosocial factors.
Across both of our studies, the primary cost of interruptions was an increase in task completion time.
In some clinical studies, the primary outcome variable is the change in a patient's condition after treatment.
In very few of these studies, the primary disease was not given, but the prescribed bisphosphonates strongly suggest osteoporosis as the primary disease (see Table 2).
Moreover, as in the OHCA score studies, the primary outcome in our study was the short-term CPC, at hospital discharge.
In many microarray studies the primary objective is to identify, from a large panel of genes, those which are prognostic markers of a censored survival endpoint such as time to disease recurrence or death.
However, in Observational Studies the primary objective is not hypothesis testing or geographical coverage, but improved understanding of ecosystem dynamics, especially regarding the immediate and long-term effects of harvest events and other disturbances.
Around the year 2000, prior to the introduction of GWA studies, the primary method of investigation was through inheritance studies of genetic linkage in families.
In all studies, the primary treatment outcome was the parasitological treatment failure.
