The software has been validated to achieve certain levels of accuracy under very strictly controlled test conditions. However, no published research has proven the conditions in which the software may begin to perform poorly; a requirement for validation as outlined in [3]. Extensive testing should...
For p > 0, CSEA cannot be seen as a simple differential signature test: CSEA tests for enrichment of a cell set at the high tail of the signature score distribution, but additionally weighs the set elements according to their signature value. This reduces the effects of low-magnitude ...
Hypertension is an enormous public-health challenge in the world due to its high prevalence and consequent increased cardiovascular disease morbidity and mortality. Observational epidemiologic studies and clinical trials have demonstrated a causal relati
Medical practice is based on a bedrock of conventional doctrine yet can be readily influenced by papers from high-impact factor journals and adroit marketing by opinion leaders and/or industry. These fads and fashions variably stand the test of time – some become ensconced as established dogma,...
Parameter differences between survivors and non survivors were assessed using Mann–Whitney U-test; significance is quoted as P < 0.05*; P < 0.005**; P < 0.0005*** (n = 70). AUC values are plotted against study period and numerical values are given in the table. IG#...
COVID-19 was diagnosed by a positive SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR test in nasopharyngeal and throat swabs and/or by typical chest CT-scan findings. Exclusion criteria were hematological malignancies and/or active chemotherapy, solid organ transplant, autoimmune diseases, and pre-existent use of high-dose ...
