Heterogeneity: Causes & Reasons - Symptoma Great Britain

Possible Causes for Heterogeneity

It is suggested that the Russell-Silver syndrome is heterogeneous and that the criteria for its diagnosis need re-evaluation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The case is another illustration of the genetic heterogeneity of Russell-Silver phenotype. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Common Cold

The very high heterogeneity means that the averaged estimates must be viewed with caution. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Heterogeneity was evaluated using the I 2 statistic. When substantial heterogeneity was found ( I 2 ≥ 40%), subgroup analyses were performed. [doi.org]

In addition, we aimed to identify potential sources of heterogeneity in results obtained and to assess their clinical significance. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
