Concordant recommendations were made for the vast majority of patients reviewed by both ASP and ID physicians.
For 9 out of 10 of these proteins (Tables 4 and 5) concordant predictions were made using at least two different hydrophobicity scales.
Both cytological and histological diagnoses were made by two expert pathologists and were concordant in all cases.
For concordant pairs (including those concordant at ascertainment) and a sample of MZ discordant pairs, additional efforts were made to obtain representative tumour blocks from the initial breast cancer surgery.
In addition, it has been shown that most such grains can be made much more concordant by mechanically removing their outer parts using an air-abrasion technique.
In 3 patients the diagnosis of a local recurrence was made based on concordant positive FDG-PET/CT findings (i.e. positive FDG uptake at the exact location suspected for tumour on MRI) as well as follow-up MRI and/or FDG-PET/CT examinations.
Then, it was retracted until it reached the lower third of the esophagus; in this position, an inspiratory occlusion was made to check for concordant changes in airway and esophageal pressure [19, 21].
From the large sample of concordant-low twin pairs, a selection was made to optimally match the concordant-high twin pairs by sex and age that resulted in a final concordant-low sample of 41 twin pairs.
If the results were concordant, a diagnosis was made.
In addition, to ensure the correct position of the catheters, an inspiratory occlusion was made, so that a check for concordant changes in airway, esophageal, and gastric pressures could be made.
