This heterogeneity explains why, although virtually all primary locally advanced prostate cancer can be treated effectively with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), CRPC remains difficult to treat, and those therapies that have been developed are only effective for a limited duration in a limited set of patients (Yap et al, 2011).
The conclusion from this study was that NT-pro-BNP was a more stable molecule after sample processing and could be maintained for a greater duration in an in vitro setting compared to BNP and furthermore because of the higher diagnostic accuracy of NT-pro-BNP, NT-pro-BNP should be used over BNP to distinguish pleural effusions of cardiac origin in select patient populations.
Thirteen interventions were in an outpatient setting (duration 6-24 weeks), and two were in a residential setting (duration 1 week).
The only way you can prepare for the lengthy test is by practicing tests of similar duration in a similar setting.
The QALY gain was determined by experts through discussions to reflect general treatment and to set realistic duration in each scenario.
This difference could be due to the study setting, duration and variations in the cultures of the Oromo and Wolaita ethnic groups living in Batu and Waliata areas respectively [ 21, 22].
This work examines the spatial organization of debris flows-triggering rainfall around the debris flow initiation points using high-resolution, carefully corrected radar data for a set of short duration (<30 h) storm events occurred in the eastern Italian Alps.
To suit each user's schedule, workouts can be set to any duration in five-minute intervals up to an hour, and users can choose from specialized routines that focus on specific fitness goals or target areas.
As a result, huge variation in EBM educational provision, setting, duration, intensity, content, and teaching methodology exists across Europe and worldwide.
We were unable to obtain contact angles between ∼50° and 85° (note, 85° was the contact angle of untreated PS), because the most gentle plasma treatment applied (i.e., lowest power setting, highest pressure setting, and shortest duration) resulted in a decrease in contact angle to ∼50°.
"The Seventh Game" is flat, sloppy and pointless: Needlessly displaying his erudition, Kahn places the Medici in Venice and sets the duration of a law-school education at four years; losing track of his own characters, at the close of the book he grafts a trait onto one character that he had earlier ascribed to another.
