AspectSystematic ErrorRandom Error Definition Errors that consistently occur in the same direction each time a measurement is made, affecting the accuracy of measurements. Errors that vary in magnitude and direction, affecting the precision of measurements. Causes Caused by flaws in the measurement syste...
Each author used the definition of each stage to determine whether an article referred to a specific policy cycle stage. More specifically, we checked if the article focused on a particular stage, i.e. discussed it more in detail, or just mentioned it in passing. Accordingly, we labelled ...
In the last decades, many methods have been proposed to reduce clinician work load related to the planning phase and to augment the information used in the definition of the optimal trajectory. In this survey, we include 113 articles related to computer assisted planning (CAP) methods and ...
Finally, the methodology described has the benefit to keep a clear connection between the simple column sequences and all the alternatives predicted. This aspect helps the designer in the definition of columns' configuration parameters. 展开
follow-up time, number of participants and cases, participant’s gender, age at baseline, method of measuring 24-h urinary sodium excretion, assessment of exposure, outcome definition, covariates adjustment in the multivariate model, the indicator of effect estimates and other relevant characteristics...
Features definition Subgroup analysis considering type of data (only rs-fMRI or rs-fMRI plus other data types) showed a significant difference between the sensitivities (\(p = 0.002\)) and the specificities (\(p = 0.047\)), indicating better results in studies that used other types of data...
In this regard, this document followed the two-goal specifications referred to as point goal and object goal. Definition of the goal makes it possible to compute the outcome once the agent indicates that the objective has been reached. In the case of a point or an object goal, the successfu...
Systematic reviews, a cornerstone of evidence-based medicine, are not produced quickly enough to support clinical practice. The cost of production, availability of the requisite expertise and timeliness are often quoted as major contributors for the dela
Detailed definition of the macroscopic transmission coefficient can be found in the Method section. Imposing the boundary conditions dictated by Eq. (1), we can calculate the value of the impedance matrix at each point of the metasurface as $$Z_{11} = iZ_0{\kern 1pt} {\mathrm{cot}}\...
respectively]). The primary outcomes of this study were preterm birth, SGA, NICU admission, low Apgar score, and IFD. Secondary outcomes included maternal SARS-CoV-2 infection, postpartum hemorrhage, cesarean delivery, and chorioamnionitis. The definition of postpartum hemorrhage followed each study...
