The main outcome measures of the study were twofold: an assessment of the proportion of GPs who, in a mainly hypothetical setting, would consider cost-quality trade-offs relevant to their clinical decision-making given their economic impact on the healthcare system; and a measure of the extent to which they would disclose this information to patients.
The results are twofold, first, the assessment of the openness of the Mexico NIS including its main components and, second, some exploration on the firms' openness.
The outline methodology of this study is twofold: firstly, an infrastructure assessment was carried out to investigate likely changes needed to the current system in order to be able to start running driverless trains on the Metro network.
FPI and homeostasis model assessment were twofold higher in patients with NAFLD versus without NAFLD, indicative of IR.
The main purposes of the comparative assessment are twofold: to demonstrate whether the GMO and/or derived food/feed is different from its appropriate non-GM counterpart and/or to demonstrate whether it is equivalent to appropriate reference varieties, apart from the intended changes.
With the ultimate aim of improving population-level health, the objectives of this training needs assessment were twofold: to identify the perceived needs by focal area, in relation to existing knowledge levels, and subsequently to prioritize these needs, recognizing the existence of finite resources with which to implement training programs [ 13].
The objective of this formative evaluation is twofold and comprises (i) an assessment of the potential of the project to be replicated and scaled up, and (ii) the formulation of recommendations depending on the outcomes of the first objective.
In the cell biology course, assessment tools report a similar trend (twofold and 1.75-fold increases, respectively; Figure 2D).
Hence, the assessment of attribution problems from a technical perspective has to be twofold.
