"I find that watching a person who's not performing to have a low enough threshold of interest," she said.
Perhaps his immersion in the workings of his own teeming brain was a form of intellectual navel-gazing that pitched his work both too far over most readers' heads and too far below their threshold of interest.
Lets x0 be a threshold of interest.
In real-life situations, one usually does know the threshold of interest a priori.
Only when assuming both higher GIST incidence and longer third-line treatment-eligible GIST survival we obtained a 37.9% probability of remaining below the threshold of interest.
Mapping the probability that a relative risk is greater than a specified threshold of interest has been proposed by several authors [e.g., Clayton and Bernardinelli (1992)].
A clinical threshold of interest for the detection of PE wear that leads to long-term osteolysis and implant failure has been established to be 0.2 mm/year (Dowd et al. 2000, Sochart 2001).
By including the fold-change threshold of interest in a formal hypothesis test, we achieve reliable p-values and FDRs for finding genes with differential expression that is biologically meaningful.
We acknowledge this limitation and in response, we herein develop new tests that utilize the continuity of information among observations that exceed the threshold of interest, are more powerful than competing tests, including the Wang-Allison tests, in most cases, and remain valid under the null hypothesis of no effect on 'maximum' lifespan.
