The impact of the choice of effect size may best be illustrated using the parameters we employed when calculating the sample size for our progesterone trial [ 27].
As described previously [55], we also scanned a "phantom" roughly the size of a rat's head (containing a 10∶1 mixture of water and 0.67 mM MnCl2 in saline) using the same parameters employed in animals for later modeling of signal intensity changes as a function of distance from the surface coil.
This is a striking result since the parameters employed by BACH are fewer in comparison with other KBPs, and no optimization on decoy sets was used to boost the performance.
If additional T. vaginalis spliceosomal introns are found (<519 nt in size) that contain alternative sequences at the 3' intron boundary, sequence differences must also be present in the 5' intron boundary that prevent the search algorithm from finding these intron candidates using the parameters we have employed.
We hence based the parameters employed in our optimization experiments on previously published reports which outlined stimulatory effects of intermittent loading for short durations at physiological frequencies, independent of the culture system used.
Early visual areas were mapped using a standard phase-encoded polar angle protocol (Sereno et al., 1995) using standard parameters employed in our lab (Muckli et al., 2005, 2009; Fig. 2).
To estimate the reliability of the PAUP tree, bootstrap analysis was performed with 1000 replicates of full heuristic searches, using the same weighting parameters employed in the initial analysis.
Therefore, few cyanobactin precursor peptides were identified using the more restrictive parameters employed for this study.
Self-calibration methods, e.g. the Fourier model, are primarily used; however, additional parameters employed in such methods have not yet met the expectations to desirably model the complex multiple distortions existing in the digital aerial cameras.
For the results shown in Fig. 3, we used the parameters in Table 1 that were employed in the full VPI experiment.
