Macular thickness, as measured by OCT, is one of the key outcome measures used in most clinical trials, especially those on diabetic macular edema and AMD. Because Stratus TD-OCT was the most common commercially available OCT instrument in the past decade, most trials are designed based on Stratus OCT.
A percentile (or a centile) is a measure used in statistics indicating the value below which a given percentage of observations in a group of observations fall. For example, the 20th percentile is the value (or score) below which 20% of the observations may be found. The term percentile and the related term percentile rank are often used in the reporting of scores from norm-referenced tests.
The percent sign (%) is a special case. On the command line, it does not need quoting or escaping unless two of them are used to indicate a variable, such as %OS%. But in a batch file, you have to use a double percent sign (%%) to yield a single percent sign (%). Enclosing the percent sign in quotation marks or preceding it with caret does not work.
