متن کاملMore data, please!
Witwer (1 ) observes in his review of miRNA studies that “data submission was reported at publication for 40% of all articles.” Sadly, the problem of poor data reporting is neither new nor restricted to miRNA data. Poor access to data motivated the 2001 MIAME (minimum information about a microarray experiment) standards in the first place (2 ). In 2008, Ochsner et al. (3 ) reviewed microarray s...

BACKGROUND impairment of functional abilities represents a crucial component of dementia diagnosis. Current functional measures rely on the traditional aggregate method of summing raw scores. While this summary score provides a quick representation of a person's ability, it disregards useful information on the item level. OBJECTIVE to use item response theory (IRT) methods to increase the int...
