Forensic techniques for the evaluation of the evidence, and more particularly Bayesian networks, allow antidoping authorities to take into account firstly the natural variations of indirect markers - through a mathematical formalism based on probabilities - and secondly the complexity due to the multiplicity of causes and confounding effects through a distributed and flexible graphical representation.
Effect on Root Growth of Endogenous and Applied IAA and ABA: A Critical Reexamination.
IAA has a more powerful effect on root elongation than ABA for identical concentrations, according to previous data related to the role of IAA and ABA in the growth and gravireaction of maize roots.

The Athlete Biological Passport can also serve as a platform for a Rule of Sport, with the presentation before competition of the ABP to objectively demonstrate that the athlete will participate in a healthy physiological condition that is unaltered by performance-enhancing drugs.
Bayesian detection of abnormal values in longitudinal biomarkers with an application to T/E ratio.
The heightened sensitivity/specificity relation obtained on a large data set shows that longitudinal monitoring of an athlete's steroid profile may be used efficiently to detect the abuse of testosterone and its precursors in sports.
