Examples of patch test in the following topics:
-
- A variety of tests exist to diagnose allergic conditions.
- Blood tests can be done to look for an allergen-specific IgE.
- Skin allergy testing is another method for medical diagnosis of allergies through the attempt to provoke a small, controlled, allergic response.
- A microscopic amount of an allergen (for example, tree pollen) is introduced to a patient's skin by means of either a prick test, which employs a needle or pin to break the skin's surface, or a patch test, where a patch containing the allergen is applied to the skin.
- Further testing can then be performed in order to identify the specific allergen.
-
- For assessing the presence of allergen-specific IgE antibodies, you can use two different methods: a skin prick test or an allergy blood test.
- Skin testing is also known as "puncture testing" and "prick testing" because of the series of tiny punctures or pricks made in the patient's skin.
- Allergy blood tests are very safe, since the patient is not exposed to any allergens during the testing procedure.
- Patch testing is used to help ascertain the cause of skin contact allergy (contact dermatitis).
- Adhesive patches, usually treated with a number of different commonly allergenic chemicals or skin sensitizers, are applied to the back.
-
- Documentation patches are usually much easier to review and apply than code patches.
- There is little or no testing to be done, and the quality of the change can be evaluated quickly just by review.
- Since the quantity is high, but the review burden fairly low, the ratio of administrative overhead to productive work is greater for documentation patches than for code patches.
- In many cases, patches will overlap with or affect other patches, and need to be adjusted with respect to each other before being committed.
- And the same patch manager (see the section called "Patch Manager") can track both code and documentation patches, filing them wherever the development and documentation teams want them, respectively.
-
- Regression testing means testing for the reappearance of already-fixed bugs.
- Regression testing is not a panacea.
- The difficulty of adding new tests, combined with the requirement that patches be accompanied by new tests, means that CVS effectively discourages patches.
- When I used to work on CVS, I sometimes saw people start on and even complete a patch to CVS's own code, but give up when told of the requirement to add a new test to sanity.sh.
- The point is not that having strict requirements to write tests is bad, nor that writing your test system as a Bourne shell script is necessarily bad.
-
- Can we please drop this topic until someone has a patch to implement one of these proposals?
- So the best thing at this point would probably be for further posts to contain either a complete specification for the proposed behavior, or a patch.
- Then at least we'd have a definite action to take (i.e., get consensus on the specification, or apply and test the patch).
-
- Theory and practice can sometimes match, too: a complete stranger who shows up with a good patch will generally be able to get it into the software.
- The other way is to contract solely for delivery of a patch, and treat the patch's acceptance into the public project as a separate matter.
- Then it becomes much easier to write the contract, but you're stuck with the burden of maintaining a private patch for either as long as you depend on the software or for as long as it takes you to get that patch into the upstream codebase.
- Even with the preferred way, the contract itself cannot require that the patch be accepted by the upstream project, because that would involve selling something that's not for sale.
- For example, if the project has written standards (e.g., about coding conventions, documentation, writing regression tests, submitting patches, etc), the contract can reference those standards and specify that the contracted work must meet them.
-
- Another frequent response to a patch is a freewheeling discussion, not necessarily about the patch itself, but about whether the concept behind the patch is good.
- The patch manager's job is to make sure that patches don't "slip through the cracks."
- The patch manager watches every mailing list thread that results from a patch posting.
- When a patch gets no reaction at all, the patch manager waits a few days, then follows up asking if anyone is going to review it.
- If she wants to ignore the patch completely, that's fine too; the patch manager will make sure it isn't forgotten.
-
- A county health department enrolled 300 smokers in a randomized experiment. 150 participants were assigned to a group that used a nicotine patch and met weekly with a support group; the other 150 received the patch and did not meet with a support group.
- How many subjects in the "patch + support" group would you expect to quit?
- How many subjects in the "only patch" group would you expect to not quit?
- (e) The test statistic is X2 = 20.93.
- (b) Verify any necessary conditions for the test and determine whether or not a chi-square test can be completed.
-
- A transdermal patch is a medicated adhesive patch that is placed on the skin to deliver a specific dose of medication through the skin and into the bloodstream.
- Vapor patch: In this type of patch, the adhesive layer not only serves to adhere the various layers together, but also to release vapor.
- These patches administered scopolamine for motion sickness.
- The highest-selling transdermal patch in the United States is the nicotine patch, which releases nicotine in controlled doses to help with cessation of tobacco smoking.
- A 21mg dose Nicoderm CQ patch applied to the left arm.

- :-) Possibly the bug has already been fixed; you should test your reproduction recipe against the most recent Subversion development tree.
- Ifyou also want to include speculation as to the cause, and even a patch to fix the bug, that's great — seehttp://subversion.apache.org/docs/community-guide/#patches for instructions on sending patches.
