Disagreements in meta-analyses using outcomes measured on continuous or rating scales: observer agreement study
OBJECTIVE To study the inter-observer variation related to extraction of continuous and numerical rating scale data from trial reports for use in meta-analyses. DESIGN Observer agreement study. DATA SOURCES A random sample of 10 Cochrane reviews that presented a result as a standardised mean difference (SMD), the protocols for the reviews and the trial reports (n=45) were retrieved. DATA ...
متن کاملScattering from Surfaces with Different Roughness Scales: Analysis and Interpretation
This paper discusses several approaches to scattering from slightly rough» very rough, composite, and rough spherical surfaces. Average incoherent scattering cross sections for slightly rough surfaces are obtained using a perturbation technique for a perfect conductor, and for a surface material which is homogeneous (with variable permeability, \Lr, as well as permittivity, «r)« The results, co...

در این پایان نامه نشان داده ایم که چگونه می توان مدل ریسک بیمه ای اسپیرر اندرسون را به کمک زنجیره های مارکوف تعریف کرد. سپس به کمک روش های آنالیز ماتریسی احتمال برشکستگی ، میزان مازاد در هنگام برشکستگی و میزان کسری بودجه در زمان وقوع برشکستگی را محاسبه کرده ایم. هدف ما در این پایان نامه بسیار محاسباتی و کاربردی تر از روش های است که در گذشته برای محاسبه این احتمال ارائه شده است. در ابتدا ما نشا...
15 صفحه اولdevelopment of different optical methods for determination of glucose using cadmium telluride quantum dots and silver nanoparticles
a simple, rapid and low-cost scanner spectroscopy method for the glucose determination by utilizing glucose oxidase and cdte/tga quantum dots as chromoionophore has been described. the detection was based on the combination of the glucose enzymatic reaction and the quenching effect of h2o2 on the cdte quantum dots (qds) photoluminescence.in this study glucose was determined by utilizing glucose...
Reporting of outcomes in arthritis trials measured on ordinal and interval scales is inadequate in relation to meta-analysis.
OBJECTIVES To study whether the reporting of clinical outcomes in arthritis trials measured on ordinal and interval scales is adequate in relation to meta-analysis. METHODS Systematic review of randomised trials of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Optimal reporting was defined as data in the original ordered categories for global evaluation and pain...
