However, some forms of SCID do not fit into this classification and, therefore, we will use the alternative approach involving cellular function for characterization of these forms (Table 2).
The analysis avoids medical detection bias, but suffers from inaccurate dose classification; therefore, results may underestimate the magnitude of the association between radiation and cancer incidence.
Beighton scores were determined by two assessors (MCS, JdV) independently in order to ensure the validity of the GJH classification, therefore inter-rater reliability was determined.
Cytology results were originally reported using a classification that predated the currently used classification; therefore, all cytological referral slides were retrieved from the archives for blind review by an expert gynaeco-pathologist (FvK).
The main prognostic factors related to breast cancer are summarized according to the TNM classification; therefore, at diagnosis, the tumor size, lymph node status and distant metastases represent the main prognostic factors.
The complex nature of functional sequence motifs influences strongly the quality of classification, therefore impacting negatively the prediction accuracy, to be more useful in high-throughput context of systems biology studies.
The missing sequences of the partial genes (group iii) prevented meaningful sequence alignments and gene classification; therefore, we removed them from our further analysis which focused on the 69 VvTPS genes of groups (i) and (ii).
It encompasses existing SOTER database conceptual modelling as well as the WRB (World Reference Base of soil resources) and the FAO soil data structures and classifications, therefore covering major soil and terrain databases such as the European Soil Database (ESD).
On the other hand, unsupervised classification does not require the labelling of the training data, therefore this classification is really only clustering the input data without identifying what each cluster represents.
