These parameters suggest comparable performance in predicting mortality for the two models (ICD-10 and ICD-9-CM).
Recent development of assays measuring proANP-derived peptides suggests comparable performance with proBNP-derived peptides in heart failure populations.
Comparisons of MRI and US in the same patients showed similar LOA, suggesting comparable performance by MRI and US when residual tumor is present (although substantial heterogeneity for US reflects its operator dependence [ 2]).
However, it was recently stated that in the great majority of published studies that have used both approaches, estimated effects from propensity score and regression methods have been similar and simulation studies further suggest comparable performance of the two approaches in many settings [ 16].
Whereas evidence from change detection paradigms suggests comparable childhood performance when viewing objects for 500 ms vs. 1000 ms (Cowan, AuBuchon, Gilchrist, Ricker & Saults, 2011; Cowan et al., 2010), recent evidence shows that continuous measures of VWM performance may be more sensitive to differences in encoding time (Bays, Gorgoraptis, Wee, Marshall & Husain, 2011a).
Further simulations on lower observation numbers suggested that comparable performance could be attained down to 8 observations before degrading to a significant degree (data not shown).
The comparison of CAD and DOUBLE confirms a previous finding on a set of screen-detected cancers (Ciatto et al, 2003), suggesting a comparable performance for the two readings.
The budding index was not found to add independent prognostic information when analysed along with these additional features (P=0.85), whereas the CD8+ index (P<0.001) and the CD8+/ buds index (P<0.001) were highly relevant as prognostic factors in multivariable analysis, with similar relative risks of death suggesting a comparable performance of these two features as prognostic indices.
In the present study, the reduction in both DJ and CMJ performance was, however, similar for the two running conditions, suggesting comparable impairments in the explosive force production capabilities despite the substantially lower average speed attained during the COD trial.
Simulation suggests that RoM exhibits comparable performance characteristics to MD and SMD.
