Using this joint posterior, an EM algorithm can be derived to search for posterior mode (Π ^, V ^, W ^ ) of Pr (Π, V, W | X, N ) = ∑ A, B, C Pr (A, B, C, Π, V, W | X, N ) in which the missing indictors A, B and C are all integrated out (see Additional file 1: Supplemental Method S.4).
The second indictor (which we term, "mean within profile heterogeneity") is the average difference between achievement domains (given profile X) across profiles.
Conduct of doctors (patient experience indicator; see Additional file 1, Table S2) and the number of yearly performed total knee- or hip replacements among children (indicator about hospital services; see Additional file 1, Table S4) were indictors on which subgroups mainly differed in variances (i.e. differences in at least two patient subgroups).
Cell membrane permeability is usually measured by lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) activity in cell medium, which is an effective indictor for irreversible cell death.
Serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D (S-25-OHD) concentration, which is the best indictor of vitamin D status, has been shown to decrease in elderly Finnish women in winter [ 20, 21].
Overall, the CS policy in Finland shows no inequity in healthcare, which is an important quality indictor in publicly funded services.
In comparing potential NPP to current NPP flows, HANPP controls for bioclimatic and environmental disparities when comparing land system change across heterogeneous areas, which renders it a suitable indictor for analyzing drivers of land system change (Erb et al., 2009).
Self-rated health, which was known to be a powerful indictor of physical health and mortality (Cox et al, 1993), was measured on a five-point scale ranging from 'very good' to 'very poor'.
Incidentally, Lewy body disease, which is considered by many to be a preclinical indictor of PD, has been shown to have intermediate levels of CI activity, further implicating mitochondrial dysfunction in neurodegeneration (Schapira et al., 1990b).
Curcumin and its derivatives, namely, reduced curcumin, allyl-curcumin, and tocopheryl-curcumin, revealed 70%to85%5% inhibition in Tat protein transactivation of HIV-1 LTR measured by β-galactosidase activities of HeLa cells which in HIV-1 LTR was fused to the indictor of lacZ gene.
