The phrase "treatment threshold" is grammatically correct and can be used in written English.
It is often used in medical or scientific contexts to refer to the point at which a person's condition or symptoms warrant a particular form of treatment. Example: After monitoring her blood sugar levels for several months, the doctor determined that she had reached the treatment threshold and prescribed insulin injections.
The treatment threshold was determined at 4 of 15.
Nevertheless, there is still a debate regarding the qualitative characteristics that define the optimal OST intervention, namely the treatment threshold.
RDD provides an unbiased estimate of the treatment effect under relatively mild conditions and is well-suited to our application because the UGB defines a sharp treatment threshold.
This makes it impossible to compare outcomes for observations "just above" and "just below" the treatment threshold, and requires the researcher to choose a functional form for the relationship between the treatment variable and the outcomes of interest.
For example, in the absence of a typical clinical picture combined with equivocal point-of-care urinalysis results (e.g., positive leukocyte esterase only), the resulting post-test probability of these factors may not surpass the treatment threshold for acute pyelonephritis.
Both rules lose usefulness for CD4 counts coming near to treatment threshold.
The Snap-shot rule ceases to be applicable once the variogram meets the treatment threshold (Figure 2).
However, except for patients starting from high CD4 levels and targeting a low treatment threshold (200×106/L), the Track-shot rule was not superior (Table 3).
Because of the lack of morbidity in experiment #1 the treatment threshold was raised to 2% in experiments #2 and #3.
There was no correlation between antibody titers to any vaccine antigen with day of first parasitemia or day when the treatment threshold of parasitemia was reached (data not shown).
The percentage would increase to almost 40% with the Track-shot rule at a treatment threshold of 200×106/L, which was commonly used in developing countries until very recently.
