Use of clinical tolerance limits for assessing agreement [PDF]
In this study, we have further extended the methodology proposed, first, by Lin et al. (2002) and, later, extended by Stevens et al. (2017, 2018), on the coverage probability/probability of agreement, by relaxing the strong parametric assumptions regarding the distribution of the latent trait and developing inference methods allowing to compute both ...

A Novel, Contactless, Portable “Spot-Check” Device Accurately Measures Respiratory Rate [PDF]
Respiratory rate (RR) is an important vital sign used in the assessment of acutely ill patients. It is also used as to predict serious deterioration in a patient's clinical condition.

Using multiple agreement methods for continuous repeated measures data: a tutorial for practitioners
Background Studies of agreement examine the distance between readings made by different devices or observers measuring the same quantity. If the values generated by each device are close together most of the time then we conclude that the devices agree ...

A novel graphical evaluation of agreement
Background The Bland-Altman plot with the limits of agreement has been widely used as an absolute index for assessing test-retest reliability or reproducibility between two measurements. We have observed that in the settings where the relative index such

Validation of keratometric measurements obtained with a new integrated aberrometry-topography system
Purpose: A clinical evaluation of the L80 videokeratographer (Visionix Luneau, Chartres, France) was performed to assess its validity and repeatability compared with a traditional Bausch and Lomb (B & L) keratometer. Methods: 87 right eyes of 87 subjects,

Comparing matrix models and QCD lattice data with chemical potential [PDF]
We present a quantitative analysis of the microscopic Dirac spectrum which is complex in the presence of a non-vanishing quark chemical potential. Data from quenched SU(3) lattice simulations for different volumes V and small values of the chemical ...

Background: The Abarquez formula (aVR QRS amplitude x 2.264) + (age x 0.645) has been offered to provide an estimate for LVEF measured by 2D Echo. However, studies aiming to establish agreement between the Abarquez formula and LVEF measured by 2D Echo ...

Model Independent Predictions of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis from \he4 and \li7: Consistency and Implications [PDF]
We examine in detail how BBN theory is constrained, and what predictions it can make, when using only the most model-independent observational constraints. We avoid the uncertainties and model-dependencies that necessarily arise when solar neighborhood D
