Sentence examples for transformed unit from inspiring English sources

The coefficient for PMD (indicating the change in risk of breast cancer associated with change in one (square root transformed) unit in percent density) was 19% less for sister controls than for unrelated controls.

Specifically, for CW, five predictors were selected: IgE of house dust mite (OR = 1.207 per loge higher, p = 0.005); IgE of dog (OR = 1.465 per loge higher, p < 0.0001); number of cigarettes smoked (OR = 1.032 per packages/year, p = 0.003); moving house (OR = 3.078 for moving twice or more as compared to not moving, p = 0.001); MDRS (OR = 0.794 per transformed unit p = 0.0004).

However, results are presented as transformed units in the Additional file 1.

For the same period EBV declined by a total of 0.155 transformed units, and regression on date of birth was equivalent to a decline of 1.36×10−2 (±0.0007) transformed units p.a.

The estimate of total gain achieved in this period of 1996 to 2006 birth years of 0.155 transformed units is equivalent to 0.43 genetic standard deviations.

There was also no difference in the MABC performance (difference=0.18 square-root transformed units, 95% CI −0.08 to 0.43, p=0.15; figure 3 and table 3).

The ability to work in the natural units of analyte concentration, as opposed to transformed units that might be applied in an attempt to normalize datasets for a parametric analysis, also simplifies interpretation of results.

Significant regression would be a reduction in CAC volume of ≥2.5 square root transformed units, but this has not been observed in this population (CAC volume in 53 subjects decreased by less than that).

The definition of progression used for this report (≥2.5 square root transformed units) has been shown to be representative of actual progression and is <1% likely to be due to interscan variability (23, 24).

Eligible case subjects for this study were those with significant progression of CAC (n = 204), defined as an increase in volume of CAC between the baseline and follow-up visits of ≥2.5 square root transformed units.

Our method works by first computing a z score for each probe in each sample: where ' i' indexes the probe (i = 1 … s), ' k' indexes the sample (k = 1 … N), ' e ik' is the expression value of the ith probe (typically log transformed units) in the kth sample, ' μ' and ' σ' are the mean expression and standard deviation for the ith probe in the control samples, respectively.
