The phrase "a consequence of the persistent" is grammatically correct and can be used in written English.
It can be used when discussing the results or effects that arise from ongoing or continuous actions or behaviors.
Example: "The decline in biodiversity is often seen as a consequence of the persistent pollution in our oceans."
Alternatives: "an outcome of the ongoing" or "a result of the continual".
This might result as a consequence of the persistent phenotype of the phoP mutant, since prolonged exposure of the mutant to the immune system likely results in better anti-Hsp65 responses.
The "disarming" model, on the other hand, suggests that the hyporesponsiveness of NK cells lacking self-MHC-specific inhibitory receptors is a consequence of the persistent stimulation of previously competent cells.
The production of dredged mud constitutes a problem of first magnitude for two reasons: the huge amount of generated wastes, and the environmental risk as a consequence of the accumulated and persistent pollutants.
In particular, community structure in the intratype interaction networks may cause that communities reach different persistent regimes as a consequence of the hindering diffusion effect of fluctuating agents at their borders.
Persistent anemia is a consequence of the declining endogenous erythropoietin production seen in progressive CKD [ 2].
4. California Sinks As if being deposed by Oklahoma in the seismic rankings weren't humiliation enough, California has been deflating this year as an indirect consequence of the persistent drought.
It has been hypothesized that the reduced ability of pDCs to produce IFN-α may be a consequence of the redistribution of the efficient pDCs into tissues [ 31] or of the exhaustion of circulating pDCs as a consequence of a high level of stimulation by persistent endogenous IFN-α inducing factors [ 13].
It is possible that the significantly higher blood activity observed in the blockade group compared to the non-blockade group (4.7 ± 0.7 vs 0.6 ± 0.1 %ID g−1, respectively) is in part a consequence of persistent presence of the radiotracer in circulation in the absence of receptors available for binding, rather than high non-specific organ uptake.
The midbody itself represents the last connection between the dividing cells, and KIF14 had been detected in this structure as well (Carleton et al, 2006; Gruneberg et al, 2006), possibly as a consequence of a persistent binding to the overlapping central microtubules.
As poor nutrition is both a risk factor and a consequence of persistent diarrhoea, the two are very commonly associated.
Numerous pathologic conditions could occur as a consequence of excess persistent intake of manganese including behavioral changes and other nervous system disorders (Elster et al. 1988; ATSDR 2008).
