Bioassays of shortened duration for drugs: statistical implications.
Declining survival rates in rodent carcinogenesis bioassays have raised a concern that continuing the practice of terminating such studies at 24 months could result in too few live animals at termination for adequate pathological evaluation. One option for ensuring sufficient numbers of animals at the terminal sacrifice is to shorten the duration of the bioassay, but this approach is accompanie...
متن کاملStatistical evaluation of toxicological bioassays – a review
The basic conclusions in almost all reports on new drug applications and in all publications in toxicology are based on statistical methods. However, serious contradictions exist in practice: designs with small samples sizes but use of asymptotic methods (i.e. constructed for larger sample sizes), statistically significant findings without biological relevance (and vice versa), proof of hazard ...

آب حاصل از بارش منبع تأمین نیازهای بی شمار جانداران به ویژه انسان است و هرگونه کاهش در کم و کیف آن مستقیماً حیات موجودات زنده را تحت تأثیر منفی قرار می دهد. نوسان سال به سال بارش از ویژگی های اساسی و بسیار مهم بارش های سالانه ایران محسوب می شود که آثار زیان بار آن در تمام عرصه های اقتصادی، اجتماعی و حتی سیاسی- امنیتی به نحوی منعکس می شود. چون میزان آب ناشی از بارش یکی از مولفه های اصلی برنامه ...
15 صفحه اولAnalysis of Combination Drug Therapy to Develop Regimens with Shortened Duration of Treatment for Tuberculosis
RATIONALE Tuberculosis remains a worldwide problem, particularly with the advent of multi-drug resistance. Shortening therapy duration for Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a major goal, requiring generation of optimal kill rate and resistance-suppression. Combination therapy is required to attain the goal of shorter therapy. OBJECTIVES Our objective was to identify a method for identifying optim...
متن کاملPercutaneous radiofrequency ablation for hepatocellular carcinoma: Shortened duration does not comprise its efficacy
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is one of the curative treatments for very early stage (Barcelona clinic liver cancer [BCLC] Stage 0) and early stage (BCLC Stage A) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) [1,2]. RFA has a slightly lower recurrence-free survival rate for early HCC compared with surgical resection, but RFA has a similar overall survival rate as resection [3,4]. The applicability of RFA i...
