Considering that such cluster-specific models are most appropriately used if the model for a given cluster (i.e. study) is of interest, a population-average (PA) model may be appropriate in diagnostic test meta-analysis settings where mean estimates of sensitivity and specificity are desired. A...
The same experiments are repeated five times, and the average model performances are reported for comparison. We leverage Area Under the receiver operator characteristic Curve (AUC), a widely used evaluation metric of discrimination performance that ranges from 0.5 (random prediction) to 1.0 (perfect...
This correlation is a measure of item discrimination. The numerator in the formula for this correlation contains the difference between the average test score of test-takers who got the item right and the average test score of test-takers who got the item wrong. 展开 ...
To calculate Nagelkerke’s R2, we constructed a logistic regression model, including the PRS and the first two components from the multidimensional scaling (MDS) analysis (full model), and compared it to a model with only the first two MDS components (null model). We assessed the difference ...
Hierarchical logistic regression analyses were used to examine the relationship between parosmia and the included predictors at baseline. The first block in the regression model (block 1) consisted of sex, age and educational background. Latter blocks consisted of olfactory functions (block 2) and ...
6, 9 Healthy working life expectancy at age 50 years is the average number of years a person is expected to be healthy and in work from age 50 years, with these years not necessarily lived consecutively (health and work states can be exited and re-entered) but at any time between age ...
According to the requirements of the mediation analysis, the research data in this study must meet the following criteria: (1) BMI/lipid parameters must be associated with NAFLD: As a part of the study, we used multivariate logistic regression model to analyze the relationship between BMI/ ...
Consecutive BP measurements were taken at 5-min intervals from the right arm by our investigators, and the average was used for analysis. The information on participants’ sleep quality was gathered with the standard Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Seven dimensions were used to describe ...
Humans may have evolved on a diet with a relatively balanced ratio of n-6:n-3 PUFAs, but in the average modern Western diet this ratio may be 10:1 or higher3. Given the broadly opposing pro- and anti-inflammatory effects of their lipid mediators1, the balance of n-6 and n-3 fatty...
