The relationship between latent inhibition, divergent thinking, and eyewitness memory: A study on attention to irrelevant stimuli. by Ixone Badiola-Lekue, Naiara Arriola, Gabriel Rodríguez

“…Latent inhibition is a retardation in learning about a stimulus due to its prior exposure without explicit consequences. It has been suggested that individuals who tend to show less latent inhibition possess a "leaky" attentional style, finding it difficult to inhibit the processing of irrelevant information, which would manifest as an ability to generate uncommon and creative ideas. …”

The diagnostic performance of coronary artery angiography with 64-MSCT and post 64-MSCT: systematic review and meta-analysis. by Min Li, Xiang-Min Du, Zhi-Tao Jin, Zhao-Hui Peng, Juan Ding, Li Li

“…The areas under the summary ROC curve were 0.98 (CI, 0.97 to 0.99) for 64-MDCT and 0.96 (CI, 0.94 to 0.98) for post 64-MDCT, respectively. For references explicitly stating that the non-assessable segments were included during analysis, a post-test probability of negative results >95% and a positive post-test probability <95% could be obtained for patients with a pre-test probability of <73% for coronary artery disease (CAD). …”
