Assessment of cluster stability showed that a considerable proportion of patients in the "fluctuating" group changed their classification over time.
The fluctuating group in the original study (the smallest group) did not show a stable pattern, with 87% of participants changing cluster, mainly to persistent mild or persistent severe clusters.
Consciousness, she tells us, is not embedded in single nerve cells (did anyone ever think it was?), nor in the whole brain, but in transient and fluctuating groups of cells (she calls them assemblies) firing in concert.
These fluctuating groups showed many similarities regarding personality, perception of medical school stress and coping strategies.
The expression of IFN-γ in the WT group showed a fluctuating uptrend, including two points of up-regulation.
The failed patient in group A had a fluctuating CRP level, and the infection recurred with a discharging wound during the period without drugs.
The complexity of coevolving residue networks leads most authors to prefer some sort of "top hit" analysis, in which some (often arbitrary) number or percentage of top scoring residue pairs are selected as the most reliably predicted co-fluctuating groups.
Figure 6b,d shows that for this complex only Gln165 makes a hydrogen bond to the phosphate group of the nearest DNA nucleotide, albeit only a fluctuating one.
"The Dow is a fluctuating index.
