The physicians were asked to rate a) the suitability (yes/no) and, b) the relevance of the 29 indicators for making an informed referral decision (rating scale from 1 to 6 as explained above).
Figure 1 Two approaches for modeling habitat suitability: (a) correlative modeling, and (b) mechanistic modeling approaches (adopted from Kearney[2006]).
Another systematic review assessed the available EBP teaching instrument methods.[ 8] They defined 3 levels of instruments, based on: (a) the type, extent, methods, and results of psychometric testing and (b) suitability for different evaluation purposes.
Similarly for C and D: suitability thresholds are higher than A and B because of lower population growth and therefore a lower demand for new urban areas.
The aim of this study was a) to describe the kinetics of serum HE4 levels between baseline and the development of recurrent disease and b) to assess the suitability of serial serum HE4 levels as an indicator of recurrence of EAC.
The CubeSats, named MarCO-A and B, are an experiment to test the suitability of pint-size craft for exploration of the solar system; previously they have only ever been deployed into orbit.
Our results inform the application of this engagement method, (a) in disinvestment deliberations generally, and (b) specifically in terms of ART, including suitability of the method for contested (ethical) domains.
Scenarios A and B share the same urban expansion but with different suitability: in the first case new urban land will develop in a highly suitable area, unlike the second case, where informal urbanization will be relevant and therefore new urban land will not match suitability requirements.
In the 7th edition of TNM classification, for stage T4 tumors (larger than 4 cm), subcategories a and b were introduced to indicate the involvement of vital structures and their suitability for surgical resection (except for nasopharynx cancer).
We aimed a) to summarize experimental studies linking pollutants to IR, and b) to gather information on available IR test models in order to discuss their suitability in IR toxicity testing.
