The ancient Chinese needle therapy has been around in the UK for many years, but this is the first time it has been officially endorsed by the NHS's advisory body, the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE). Traditionally, doctors in the UK have advised back pain ...
Simulation results show that lzt∗ has close-to-nominal Type I error rates and satisfactory power for detecting aberrant responses. For unidimensional models, lzt and lzt∗ reduce to lz and lz∗, respectively, and therefore allows for the evaluation of person fit with a wider range of IRT...

The results support the necessity of a respirator fit test to ensure that workers use a respirator that fits their face. The workers were asked to rate the respirators based on comfort on a scale from 1 to 5. The respirator with the highest pass rate received the highest mean comfort ...

Further research is required to delineate thresholds, comprising a combination of qualitative and quantitative techniques to capture relevant content with reliability and adequate sample size at the upper and lower bounds of the target age range to test developmentally appropriate cut offs.18 Flexible ...
One whole blood drop taken in the saphenous vein of mice was absorbed by a test trip. Data was entered in Provantis software after conversion in mmol/l. The level of statistical significance was p ≤ 0.05. 3. Results and discussion 3.1. Selection of albumin binding Nanofitins (ABNF) by ...
Results Overall, 2,018 (17.7%) of 11,427 participants who completed a FIT had an abnormal FIT result. Of these, 1,066 (52.8%) completed a follow-up diagnostic colonoscopy within 12 months of their FIT test. The proportion completing a FIT ranged from 47.2% to 60.9% (data not shown) ...
