Grading improves transparency and quality.
The objection of Dr. Tobin to evidence-based medicine in a recent issue of CHEST (May 2008)1,2 seems to focus on the grading of recommendations. As Deputy Editor of a popular clinical resource, I have personally graded 100 recommendations using the Grading Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system and feel well qualified to comment on its benefits.3 Grading improves...
متن کاملCryptically Patterned Moths Perceive Bark Structure When Choosing Body Orientations That Match Wing Color Pattern to the Bark Pattern
Many moths have wing patterns that resemble bark of trees on which they rest. The wing patterns help moths to become camouflaged and to avoid predation because the moths are able to assume specific body orientations that produce a very good match between the pattern on the bark and the pattern on the wings. Furthermore, after landing on a bark moths are able to perceive stimuli that correlate w...
متن کاملOne-way transparency of four-coloured spin-wave excitations in multiferroic materials.
The coupling between spins and electric dipoles governs magnetoelectric phenomena in multiferroics. The dynamical magnetoelectric effect, which is an inherent attribute of the spin excitations in multiferroics, drastically changes the optical properties of these compounds compared with conventional materials where light-matter interaction is expressed only by the dielectric permittivity or magn...
متن کاملOvule discounting in an outcrossing, cryptically dioecious tree.
Ovule discounting denotes the reduction in the number of ovules available for cross-fertilization due to the interference of inferior pollen. Traditionally, ovule discounting has been discussed solely from the perspective of compromised outcrossing opportunities as a result of selfing, but the principle is more general. Here, we extend its applicability beyond the simple contrast between selfin...
متن کاملPheromone Transduction in Moths
Calling female moths attract their mates late at night with intermittent release of a species-specific sex-pheromone blend. Mean frequency of pheromone filaments encodes distance to the calling female. In their zig-zagging upwind search male moths encounter turbulent pheromone blend filaments at highly variable concentrations and frequencies. The male moth antennae are delicately designed to de...
