Accuracy and cut-off point selection in three-class classification problems using a generalization of the Youden index
(2010)We study properties of the index J(3), defined as the accuracy, or the maximum correct classification, for a given three class classification problem Specifically, using J(3) one can assess the discrimination between the ... -
Agricultural produces: Synopsis of employed quality control methods for the authentication of foods and application of chemometrics for the classification of foods according to their variety or geographical origin
(2001)A review of quality control methods and applications of multivariate statistical techniques on the authentication and classification of agricultural products is presented. The products reported within the frame of this ... -
The application of an improved method for trans-resveratrol to determine the origin of Greek red wines
(2001)A rapid and sensitive method has been developed for the determination of trans-resveratrol in wine. This method consists of a solid phase extraction step followed by a rapid HPLC quantification step (30 min). The improvement ... -
Excessive tibial rotation during high-demand activities is not restored by anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction
(2005)Purpose: Recent in vitro research has suggested that anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction does not restore control of tibial rotation. The purpose of this study was to explore these findings in vivo and investigate ... -
A fast iterative model for discrete velocity calculations on triangular grids
(2010)A fast synthetic type iterative model is proposed to speed up the slow convergence of discrete velocity algorithms for solving linear kinetic equations on triangular lattices. The efficiency of the scheme is verified both ... -
Genetic and cytogenetic analysis of the American cherry fruit fly, Rhagoletis cingulata (Diptera: Tephritidae)
(2011)The American eastern cherry fruit fly, Rhagoletis cingulata, a pest of cherries in the western hemisphere, invaded Europe in 1983, and since then dispersed to several European countries. Information on the genetics and ... -
Highly Dynamic Exon Shuffling in Candidate Pathogen Receptors ... What if Brown Algae Were Capable of Adaptive Immunity?
(2012)Pathogen recognition is the first step of immune reactions. In animals and plants, direct or indirect pathogen recognition is often mediated by a wealth of fast-evolving receptors, many of which contain ligand-binding and ... -
Insights into the genetic diversity and evolution of Little cherry virus 1
(2015)Little cherry virus 1 (LChV-1), a member of the recently proposed genus Velarivirus, is a sweet cherry pathogen that has been recently reported to infect other Prunus species and is associated with various plant disorders. ... -
Instruments to Assess Secondhand Smoke Exposure in Large Cohorts of Never Smokers: The Smoke Scales
(2014)The objectives of this study were to: (i) to develop questionnaires that can identify never-smoking children and adults experiencing increased exposure to secondhand smoke (SHS+), (ii) to determine their validity against ... -
Prediction of AVM obliteration after stereotactic radiotherapy using radiobiological modelling
(2002)This study was carried out in order to derive the radiobiological parameters of the dose-response relation for the obliteration of arteriovenous malformation (AVM) following single fraction stereotactic radiotherapy. ... -
Pseudopotentials: A Simplified Model for Certain Types of Array Elements
(2009)The results obtained by modeling an infinite linear array of electrically short dipoles by an array of pseudopotentials (the pseudopotential is a quantum-mechanical analog of the dipole) can be used for the analysis of ... -
Review of Shiga-toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) and their significance in dairy production
(2013)The involvement of the pathogenic Shiga-toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC; also called verocytotoxic-producing E. coli or VTEC) in sporadic cases and disease outbreaks is presently increasing. Infrequent cases are due ... -
Systemic and airway inflammation and the presence of emphysema in patients with COPD
(2010)The aim of this study was to determine the impact of HRCT-confirmed emphysema on biomarkers evaluating airway and systemic inflammation in COPD patients. Forty-nine consecutive male COPD outpatients with stable COPD were ... -
Using graph theory to analyze biological networks
(2011)Understanding complex systems often requires a bottom-up analysis towards a systems biology approach. The need to investigate a system, not only as individual components but as a whole, emerges. This can be done by examining ...
