t. tigris, P. t. altaica, P. t. amoyensis, P. t. sumatrae, P. t. corbetti) was revisited recently using mitochondrial molecular genetics by Luo et al. [11] who affirmed the validity of subspecies ranking for these groups.
Patient insights were used in the development of the SLEQOL, although only by means of ranking items in order of importance; the face validity was not qualitatively assessed.
The validity of the IPAQ for ranking the physical activity level of individuals was inadequate in our population, whereas the validity for SP2PAQ was acceptable for this purpose with the possible exception of ranking moderate activity in Indians.
As we were interested in regulators of actin dynamics selective for the brain, we ranked these 89 genes for high expression in the brain compared to the spinal cord and tested the validity of the ranking using a set of control genes expressed only in one of the respective tissues.
The authors demonstrated satisfactory reproducibility and relative validity of the ranking of subjects.
The consistency between these two approaches supports the validity of the ranking method.
This prioritization of several already known MG-associated genes strongly supports the validity of our ranking method.
87 Genes of the subset matching to no criteria were randomly selected for further analysis as a negative control set to assess the validity of the ranking method.
A number of findings support the validity of our severity ranking.
