  2. Frailty index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frailty_index

    For example, a person with 20 of 40 deficits collected has an FI score of 20/40 = 0.5; whilst for someone with 10 deficits, the FI score is 10/40 = 0.25. The FI takes advantage of the high redundancy in the human organism. This is why it is replicable across different databases even when different items and different numbers of items are used ...

  3. John Muir (engineer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Muir_(engineer)

    John Muir (1918–1977) was a structural engineer who worked for National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), who "dropped out," 1960s-style, to become a writer and long-haired car mechanic with a garage in Taos, New Mexico, specializing in maintenance and repair of Volkswagens. [1]

  4. Abbreviated Injury Scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abbreviated_Injury_Scale

    Abbreviated Injury Score-Code is on a scale of one to six, one being a minor injury and six being maximal (currently untreatable). [1] An AIS-Code of 6 is not the arbitrary code for a deceased patient or fatal injury, but the code for injuries specifically assigned an AIS 6 severity. [1]

  5. Barthel scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barthel_scale

    External factors within the environment affect the score of each item. If adaptations outside the standard home environment are met during assessment, the participant's score will be lower if these conditions are not available. If adaptations to the environment are made, they should be described in detail and attached to the Barthel index.

  6. Charlson Comorbidity Index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlson_comorbidity_index

    A score of zero means that no comorbidities were found; the higher the score, the higher the predicted mortality rate is. [2] [3] For a physician, this score is helpful in deciding how aggressively to treat a condition. It is one of the most widely used scoring system for comorbidities. [4]

  7. Index (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Index_(statistics)

    Sample of a well maintained data [clarification needed]. In statistics and research design, an index is a composite statistic – a measure of changes in a representative group of individual data points, or in other words, a compound measure that aggregates multiple indicators.

  8. Ion mobility spectrometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion_mobility_spectrometry

    However, the resolving power strongly depends on the ion mobility and decreases for more mobile ions. In addition, TIMS can be capable of higher sensitivity than other ion mobility systems because no grids or shutters exist in the ion path, improving ion transmission both during ion mobility experiments and while operating in a transparent MS ...

  9. Rao–Blackwell theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rao–Blackwell_theorem

    If the conditioning statistic is both complete and sufficient, and the starting estimator is unbiased, then the Rao–Blackwell estimator is the unique "best unbiased estimator": see Lehmann–Scheffé theorem.
