Based on those observations, we then describe a large suite of indoor environmental and building design and operational parameters that can be measured using standardized methods to inform experimental design in future studies of the microbial ecology of the built environment.
Future studies should use standardized methods to classify hyperopia and sufficient sample size when evaluating age-specific prevalence.
We have shown, using routine data sources, that it is possible to use standardized methods to collect data and to measure important aspects of patient treatment adherence and clinic attendance in a wide variety of health facilities in resource-poor settings and that the different facility-level summary indicator results are correlated.
Thirdly, the surveys used standardized methods comparable to multiple countries.
To improve our knowledge of malaria in young infants, we used standardized methods and more sensitive diagnostics to better characterize the prevalence of malaria among children <6 months of age in different epidemiologic settings.
Some multi-centre studies such as MONICA, and EPIC have used standardized methods but cover only small areas.
The review drew on qualitative, quantitative, and case studies and used standardized methods for screening, data extraction, critical appraisal, and synthesis.
These translations used standardized methods of translation, backtranslation, pilot testing and critique by patients who were the intended subjects of the questionnaire.
Many of these studies are based on single cities, but multicity studies that used standardized methods have reported similar results in various continents (Bell et al. 2004; Gryparis et al. 2004; Wong et al. 2008).
Follow-up studies could examine the cost-effectiveness of rituximab over a longer time horizon and compare against findings in published models that used standardized methods for life-time projections of survival benefit and costs.
