Definition of 'Least-Squares Analysis'

A principle of estimation in which the estimates of a set of parameters in a statistical model are those quantities minimizing the sum of squared differences between the observed values of a dependent variable and the values predicted by the model.

Impact of multiaccess infusion devices on in vitro drug delivery during multi-infusion therapy.

29 Sep 2009 BACKGROUND: Multiaccess infusion sets allow multiple simultaneous infusions but may induce interference in drug delivery resulting from large variations in the delivery rate of potent drugs. In this study, we sought to understand the influence of ... Read more...


Nortriptyline and gabapentin, alone and in combination for neuropathic pain: a double-blind, randomised controlled crossover trial.

28 Sep 2009 BACKGROUND: Drugs for neuropathic pain have incomplete efficacy and dose-limiting side-effects when given as monotherapy. We assessed the efficacy and tolerability of combined nortriptyline and gabapentin compared with each drug given alone. ... Read more...


Quantitative dielectric constant measurement of thin films by DC electrostatic force microscopy.

31 Aug 2009 A simple method to measure the static dielectric constant of thin films with nanometric spatial resolution is presented. The dielectric constant is extracted from DC electrostatic force measurements with the use of an accurate analytical model. The ... Read more...
