The guinea pig has been the animal of choice for predictive sensitisation tests for several decades. Two types of tests have been developed : adjuvant tests in which sensitisation is potentiated by the injection of Freund's complete adjuvant(FCA), and non-adjuvant tests.... In this updated version, the guinea pig maximisation test(GPMT) of Magnusson and Kligman which uses adjuvant... and the non-adjuvant Buehler Test... are given preference over other methods.  1, record 1, English, - guinea%20pig%20maximisation%20test

Depuis plusieurs décennies, le cobaye représente l'animal de prédilection pour les essais visant à prévoir la sensibilisation. Deux types d'essai ont été élaborés : les essais avec adjuvant, dans lesquels la sensibilisation est potentialisée par l'injection de l'Adjuvant Complet de Freund (ACF), et les essais sans adjuvant. [...] Dans cette version mise à jour, parmi les méthodes, on donne la préférence au test de maximisation chez le cobaye (GPMT) de Magnusson et Kligman, qui utilise un adjuvant [...] et au test de Buehler, qui n'utilise pas d'adjuvant [...]  1, record 1, French, - test%20de%20maximisation%20chez%20le%20cobaye

Las pruebas sobre el riesgo de contraer enfermedades de origen genético son denominadas también de predisposición genética. Una cantidad apreciable de enfermedades están originadas por un componente genético que, junto al ambiente, pueden originar la enfermedad. Las pruebas de predisposición pueden variar según un abanico que abarca desde casi la certeza hasta una cierta predisposición a padecer enfermedades comunes.  5, record 3, Spanish, - prueba%20predictiva

Utilizing standard structured interview data, we employed a holdout sample strategy to test a path model that posited three psychosocial variables as partially mediating the predictive relations of two ecological/architectural and three personal variables with mental health.  1, record 5, English, - holdout%20sample

Record number: 5, Textual support number: 1 OBS

The strategy used to develop the model involved randomly splitting the total sample of 989 subjects into two approximately equal size groups. The model was developed on one-half of the sample ("explore" group, n = 494) and subsequently tested on the other half ("confirm" group, n = 495).  1, record 5, English, - holdout%20sample

... From the character of the bran and the percentages of flour obtained, an opinion can be formed of the approximate milling quality of the small samples. The flours produced are substantially free from bran and germ and therefore can be satisfactorily used for one or more predictive tests for baking quality. The tests usually applied depend on the quantity of flour available. The usual tests are 1) protein content, 2) Zelehy sedimentation test and 3) micromixograph test. By using these methods, it is possible to eliminate a large number of hybrids which mill poorly or yeild flour of unsatisfactory quality, without having to multiply them through later generations to produce larger samples required for full scale quality tests.  1, record 8, English, - micromixograph%20test

[...] D'après les caractères du son et le pourcentage de farine obtenue, on peut se faire une idée de la valeur meunière approximative de ces échantillons réduits. Les farines obtenues sont à peu près exemptes de son et de germe et peuvent donc servir de manière satisfaisante à un ou plusieurs essais de prédiction de la valeur boulangère. Le genre d'essai dépend généralement de la quantité de farine dont on dispose. Les plus fréquents sont 1) le dosage des protéines, 2) l'essai de sédimentation de Zélény, et 3) l'essai au micromixographe. Par ces essais, on peut éliminer un grand nombre d'hybrides dont la farine est de qualité ou de quantité insuffisante, sans avoir à multiplier le nombre des générations en vue d'obtenir les échantillons plus importants nécessaires à des essais de qualité en vraie grandeur.  1, record 8, French, - essai%20au%20micromixographe

McCarthy Screening Test. Dorothea McCarthy. Ages : 4-6. 5.... [It] includes six component scales-all drawn from the "McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities-that are predictive of a child's ability to cope with schoolwork in the early grades. Typically, children who would be diagnosed as "learning disabled", or as having other handicaps that would interfere with learning, perform less well on these scales then do children no so diagnosed. Therefore, the... test... identifies children as being "at risk" or "not at risk".  2, record 12, English, - McCarthy%20Screening%20Test
