| bradykinetic analysis | The analysis of a movement by means of slow cinematography. (05 Mar 2000) |
| breath analysis test | A test of hepatic and intestinal absorptive function; aminopyrine labelled with radioactive carbon is administered orally; expired 14CO2 is a measure of aminopyrine absorption and its metabolism in the liver; a measurement of the amount of 14CO2 exhaled after an oral dose of 14C-O-xylose; a measurement of exhaled hydrogen gas following an oral dose of lactose as a test of lactose deficiency. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gastric analysis | Measurement of pH and acid output of stomach contents; basal acid output can be determined by collecting the overnight gastric secretion or by a 1-hr collection; maximal acid output is determined following injection of histamine; output is measured by titration with a strong base.

| matched-pair analysis | A type of analysis in which subjects in a study group and a comparison group are made comparable with respect to extraneous factors by individually pairing study subjects with the comparison group subjects (e.g., age-matched controls). (12 Dec 1998) |
| regression analysis | Procedures for finding the mathematical function which best describes the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. In linear regression (see linear models) the relationship is constrained to be a straight line and least-squares analysis is used to determine the best fit. In logistic regression (see logistic models) the dependent variable is qualitative rather than continuously variable and likelihood functions are used to find the best relationship. In multiple regression the dependent variable is considered to depend on more than a single independent variable. (12 Dec 1998) |

| pedigree analysis | The formal study of the pattern of a trait in a pedigree to determine such properties as its mode of inheritance, age of onset, and variability in phenotype. (05 Mar 2000) |
| volumetric analysis | Quantitative analysis by the addition of graduated amounts of a standard test solution to a solution of a known amount of the substance analyzed, until the reaction is just at an end; depends upon the stoichiometric nature of the reaction between the test solution and the unknown.

| meta-analysis | <statistics> A quantitative method of combining the results of independent studies (usually drawn from the published literature) and synthesizing summaries and conclusions which may be used to evaluate therapeutic effectiveness or to plan new studies. With application chiefly in the areas of research and medicine. It is often an overview of clinical trials. It is usually called a meta-analysis by the author or sponsoring body and should be differentiated from reviews of the literature. (27 Jun 1999) |
| cluster analysis | A set of statistical methods used to group variables or observations into strongly inter-related subgroups. In epidemiology, it may be used to analyze a closely grouped series of events or cases of disease or other health-related phenomenon with well-defined distribution patterns in relation to time or place or both. (12 Dec 1998) |
| content analysis |
the statistical analysis of a range of texts. The results are usually compared with a different set of results from the same range of texts - eg what proportion of reports about men in the tabloid press represents men as victims and what proportion represents women as victims? ...

| content analysis |
A research procedure for studying naturally occurring conversations in settings such as task groups or therapy groups. Content analysis is done with a list or matrix of concepts that serve to focus the study and evaluate specific processes. In the majority of cases, these concepts do not investigate the actual content of speech but rather the process of speaking (such questinoing or advising). Content analysis systems differ, however, in the the categories of speech they investigate.
