| For those who failed, the time at risk ended on the date of the first rearrest after randomization. |
|
| Although lack of generalizability is often cited as the major shortcoming of randomization tests, other limitations have also been discussed. |
|
| Two key elements in any experimental design are randomization and replication. |

| Mathai and Polito have misinterpreted the data regarding the randomization of the eligible population. |
|
| Like a shooter with RPG elements, FTL uses permadeath and heavy randomization while eschewing the traditional dungeon crawl. |
|
| As the titles suggest, the two workshops focus on approximation algorithms and randomization. |
|
| All eligible patients were assigned to each group by simple randomization with rigorous allocation concealment. |
|
| The inclusion criteria allowed randomization of patients with symptoms up to 4 days in 2 weeks during the run-in period. |
|
| Before randomization, patients were stratified according to tumor resection status. |
|
| Like the jackknife and the bootstrap, randomization methods are free from potentially unwarranted normal theory assumptions such as normally distributed populations. |
|
| Statisticians assigned the randomization sequence to the pharmacy using a random number generator. |
|
| For example, randomization for generalization purposes is a different issue from the random selection of experimental and comparison groups. |
|
| With a clear objective, we move to the design of the experiment, where replication and randomization are key. |
|
| With respect to randomization of clinical trials, questions such as what to randomize against were asked. |
|
| We extend the methodology of single block randomization to allocate to multiple blocks conditioning on previous allocations. |
|
| Measures taken to avoid bias, particularly methods of randomization, shall be documented. |
|
| In the absence of randomization, group comparability cannot be assumed, and so the potential for incomparability must be dealt with. |
|
| Each drawing will be conducted by the Judging Organization using randomization methods selected in its sole discretion. |
|
| In addition, most aspects of quality of life improved in both randomization groups. |
|
|
|
| Patient-reported symptoms of ascites, including abdominal discomfort, pain, and bloating, as well as patients' ability to move, were recorded daily from the time of randomization to the time of first repeat paracentesis. |
|
| At the largest center with preconsent randomization, 20,793 men underwent a baseline screening. |
|
| Similarly, the randomization in randomized clinical trials concerns the allocation of the treatment, not the selection of individuals for the study. |
|
| To consider an example which is much discussed in the research ethics literature, it is commonly assumed that valid consent for randomized clinical trials requires individuals to understand randomization. |
|
| But Duflo set in motion a randomization industry. |
|
| As clinical practice sometimes makes it difficult to randomize in one city, cohort design matching will be combined in a unique manner with randomization strategies and used to compare results. |
|
| Permuted blocked randomization with varying block sizes was used to assign participants to each of the three groups using Stata software. |
|
| Investigators blinded to randomization evaluated weekly wound photographs using a digital planimetry software package for debridement. |
|
| This allowed interspersion and randomization such that the trials represent replicates. |
|
| Enrollment criteria were at least one arrhythmic episode during the previous three months and sinus rhythm for at least one hour before randomization to dronedarone 400 mg twice-daily or placebo. |
|
| These possibilities can be addressed respectively in a cohort study of the general population and in a mendelian randomization study. |
|
| Diablo is based on randomization, or the slot machine effect. |
|
| But by combining video-chatting technology and randomization Ternovskiy has bucked a decade-long trend that has made the Internet feel progressively more organized, pleasant, and safe. |
|
| In studies including randomization and blinding in clinical trials, neither the research subjects nor those responsible for their care know which treatment the subjects are receiving before the project commences. |
|
| It should be noted that in cases of randomization and blinding in clinical trials, neither the participants nor the researchers know which treatment arm the participant will be receiving before the research commences. |
|
| During the second quarter of 2008, a Phase II clinical trial in diabetic patients was initiated in Canada and patient recruitment and randomization commenced. |
|
| As far as possible, and particularly in trials where the effect of the product cannot be objectively measured, steps shall be taken to avoid bias, including methods of randomization and blinding. |
|
| All patients had to have undergone between one and four prior paracenteses in the month prior to randomization in addition to a baseline procedure. |
|
| Randomization was not used in selecting supervisors, therapists, clients, sessions, or phone-in events. |
|
| Randomization procedures whereby the sampling dates or the spatial positions were reshuffled allowed us to test for temporal and spatial effects. |
