Lee et al. focused more on the importance of immunizing employees as a component of pandemic planning, and thus used higher estimates of influenza incidence (15%25%25%) compared with our default range (4.1%5.5%.5%).
Reducing the proportion of NMFIs that require antibiotics and the probability that these result in death when untreated, improved the cost-effectiveness of HMM greatly, as shown in Figure 7. Using higher estimates for the proportion of NMFIs that require antibiotics and the probability of death for untreated NMFIs did not have a significant effect.
Ms. Mitchell said in an interview that she had used higher estimates without conducting research of her own, and she conceded that they may be flawed.
Using Bloomberg's higher estimates of the losses recorded so far, a peak core-capital ratio of nearer 10% would have been needed for the big American banks.
Using income data produces higher estimates of inequality in developing countries because it tends to understate the well-being of self-employed and agricultural workers, who are generally the poorest.
In general, the means and standard deviations in the Windham study using 1996 NATA reflect higher estimates of exposure for 9 of the 13 compounds.
In order for the cost/QALY to be equivalent to NICE's cost-effectiveness threshold of £20,000, there would have to be an increase of 160% in the cost per user, using highest cost estimate or a reduction of 62% in the QALY gained, using the lower utility estimate derived from the EQ5D responses.
The models in which we used time updated variables showed higher estimates of the effect of physical activity than models with baseline data (table 3).
Calculation of divergence times using the highest estimate of the rate of synonymous changes for rbcL (3 × 10-10) in Fagaceae [ 38], calibrated using fossil data for the minimum divergence time of Castanea and Quercus (60 million years B.P.; see Crepet [ 2]), provides a rough guide to estimate divergence times based on the noncoding cpDNA sequences examined here.
Biogenic emissions were estimated using high resolution Coordination of Information on the Environment (CORINE) land cover data (http://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps), meteorological data from WRF and methods described by Guenther et al.
