Qual Life Res 13:571-86. 2004..Given this assumption, an ICC computed from a one-way ANOVA seems to be the best choice for this purpose. Otherwise, Lin's concordance correlation coefficient is recommended as identity measure...
Characterization of DC-SIGN/R interaction with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 gp120 and ICAM molecules favors the receptor's role as an antigen-capturing rather than an adhesion receptorGreg A Snyder
