The aim of this paper was to be “evidence-informed” rather than “evidence-based”, meaning that evidence is understood as “contextually bound but also individually interpreted and particularised within that context” [60]. Therefore, we took a critical approach to reviewing the literature [61...
Theory is adesignedsystem, consisting of concepts that are systematically organised towards achieving potentially explicit goals (Halliday1996,2009). Specifically, SFL theory is designed as an enabling resource to guide particular descriptions, either of individual languages or a number of languages. The ...
Therefore, we have written this essay with three aims in mind. The first aim, addressed in 'Discussion, Part I', is to explain the basic concepts of probability theory to physicians, and in particular to provide a detailed account of the 'origin', mechanics, and meaning of Bayes' rule. ...

results of masking EMD showed that the signal could be successfully decomposed into each IMF retaining the physical meaning in the condition of strong noise (see illustration in SI) and could be comparable to other decomposition methods (e.g., Nonlinear Mode Decomposition31and Swarm Decomposition32...
Our haplotype reconstruction strategy was devised based on the following scenario: An imputation server holds a hidden reference panel (meaning a user cannot directly access the genotype data) and an adversary’s objective is to retrieve as much of the genomic data in that reference panel as possi...
