(1) The new index distinguished 19 of 23 patients with pulmonary hypertension, with one false positive, when the divisor was actual lung volume; when predicted lung volume was used 18 of 23 patients were distinguished, again with one false positive result.
(2) The common divisor for interectopic intervals, ectopic complex interpolation, P-Q and Q-T intervals of the main complex and the presence of a wave on the ascending or descending slope of the R wave in sinus QRS complex were determined.
(3) The residual mean-square errors (the divisor being four less than the number of data points, since four parameters are estimated) seem to be unbiased estimators of the variances of the errors.
(4) The number of physically acceptable solutions for a given N is omega(N) + 1, where omega(N) is the number of divisors of N. The ground-state energy and entropy for these are calculated.
Multiplicand
Definition:
(n.) The number which is to be multiplied by another number called the multiplier. See Note under Multiplication.
Example Sentences:
(1) Several tentative modifications to the estimate of the risks may be presented: (i) a severe risk of developing gastric cancer is restricted to subjects with a severe grade of chronic gastritis (ii) the risk of gastric cancer is increased in subjects who have either severe antral or body chronic gastritis, the risk being approximately three to five times higher in the antral chronic gastritis (B-type of gastritis) than in the body chronic gastritis (A type of gastritis); (iii) the antral and body chronic gastritis are independent risk factors for gastric cancer, the joint risks being multiplicands of the marginal risks i.e., the estimated risk is highest in those subjects who show severe chronic gastritis in both the antrum and the body (AB type of gastritis); (iiii) the chronic gastritis mediated gastric cancer risk is limited to gastric cancers of the intestinal type, and thus covers only a proportion of all cases of gastric cancer.
(2) As predictors of both distal and proximal ulcer, gastritis, sex, and Le(a) phenotype were independent of each other; that is, their joint value in prediction of ulcer is a multiplicand of the marginal risks.
