Performance Evaluations of Continuous Glucose Monitoring Systems: Precision Absolute Relative Deviation is Part of the Assessment [PDF]
Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology, 2013 Background: Even though a Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute proposal exists on the design of studies and performance criteria for continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems, it has not yet led to a consistent evaluation of different systems, as no consensus has been reached on the reference method to evaluate them or on acceptance levels. As

Architecture, Implementation and Evaluation of a Software System for Field Experiments on the Impact of Relative and Absolute Rebates on Consumer Behavior [PDF]
Journal of Economics, Business and Management, 2015 This paper discusses the implementation of a software system prototype to run online experiments regarding differences in the reaction of newsletter receivers to absolute and relative rebates. Therefore a split-run component was added to an online cashback system to gather experimental data on their behavior.

The Quantitative Relationship Between ISO 15197 Accuracy Criteria and Mean Absolute Relative Difference (MARD) in the Evaluation of Analytical Performance of Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose (SMBG) Systems [PDF]
Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology, 2016 The relationship between International Organization for Standardization (ISO) accuracy criteria and mean absolute relative difference (MARD), 2 methods for assessing the accuracy of blood glucose meters, is complex. While lower MARD values are generally better than higher MARD values, it is not possible to define a particular MARD value that ensures a

Evaluation of White Light Sources For an Absolute Fiber Optic Sensor Readout System [PDF]
, 2003 This report summarizes work done in pursuit of an absolute readout system for Fabry-Perot optics sensors such as those built both by FISO and LLNL. The use of white light results in a short coherence length reducing the ambiguity of the Fabry-Perot gap measurement which is required to readout the sensor.

Biochemical evaluation of the renin-angiotensin system: the good, bad, and absolute?
American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 2016 The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) constitutes a key hormonal system in the physiological regulation of blood pressure through peripheral and central mechanisms. Indeed, dysregulation of the RAS is considered a major factor in the development of cardiovascular pathologies, and pharmacological blockade of this system by the inhibition of angiotensin ...
