  2. Multiple correspondence analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_correspondence...

    MCA is performed by applying the CA algorithm to either an indicator matrix (also called complete disjunctive table – CDT) or a Burt table formed from these variables. [citation needed] An indicator matrix is an individuals × variables matrix, where the rows represent individuals and the columns are dummy variables representing categories of the variables. [1]

  3. Androgen deprivation therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Androgen_deprivation_therapy

    Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), also called androgen ablation therapy or androgen suppression therapy, is an antihormone therapy whose main use is in treating prostate cancer. Prostate cancer cells usually require androgen hormones , such as testosterone , to grow.

  4. Maximum androgen blockade - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_androgen_blockade

    Triple androgen blockade (TrAB) is a method of ADT in which a 5α-reductase inhibitor such as finasteride or dutasteride is added to CAB. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] MAB has been found to produce higher rates of gynecomastia (7 to 28%) than orchiectomy and GnRH analogues alone (1 to 16%), but lower rates than nonsteroidal antiandrogen monotherapy such as with ...

    An admission, discharge, and transfer (ADT) system is a backbone system for the structure of other types of business systems. An ADT system is one of four types of core business systems: ADT, financial, scheduling, and acuity (McGonigle, D., & Mastrain, K., 2012).

  6. Multichannel analyzer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multichannel_analyzer

    A multichannel analyzer (MCA) is an instrument used in laboratory and field applications to analyze an input signal consisting of voltage pulses. [1] MCAs are used extensively in digitizing various spectroscopy measurements, especially those related to nuclear physics , including various types of spectroscopy (alpha-, beta-, and gamma ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abstract_data_type

    Different implementations of the ADT, having all the same properties and abilities, can be considered semantically equivalent and may be used somewhat interchangeably in code that uses the ADT. This provides a form of abstraction or encapsulation, and gives a great deal of flexibility when using ADT objects in different situations. For example ...

  8. Metabolic control analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolic_control_analysis

    [1] [2] [3] MCA was originally developed to describe the control in metabolic pathways but was subsequently extended to describe signaling and genetic networks. MCA has sometimes also been referred to as Metabolic Control Theory, but this terminology was rather strongly opposed by Henrik Kacser, one of the founders [citation needed].
