Reduction in number to treat versus number needed to treat

Abstract Background We propose a new measure of treatment effect based on the expected reduction in the number of patients Water Flow Sensor to treat (RNT) which is defined as the difference of the reciprocals of clinical measures of interest between two arms.Compared with the conventional number needed to treat (NNT), RNT shows superiority with bo

Mixed convection flow and heat-mass transfer of cross liquid near a stagnation region with Dufour, Soret effects and chemical reaction

Heat-mass transfer in a liquid flow over a stretching surface at a stagnation regime is significant in optimal manufacturing and quality assurance Wire Ferrule depending on the rheological behavior of viscoelastic fluids in process machinery.Stretching sheet flow at a stagnation point is a standard procedure used in the metallurgical industries for

Conserved Disease Modules Extracted From Multilayer Heterogeneous Disease and Gene Networks for Understanding Disease Mechanisms and Predicting Disease Treatments

Disease relationship studies for understanding the pathogenesis of complex diseases, diagnosis, prognosis, and drug development are important.Traditional approaches consider one type of disease data or aggregating multiple types of disease data into a single network, which results in important temporal- or context-related information loss and may d
