To quantify the association between intestinal inflammation and linear growth failure three commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (neopterin [NEO], alpha-anti-trypsin [AAT], and myeloperoxidase [MPO]) were performed in a structured sampling of asymptomatic stool from children under longitudinal surveillance for diarrheal illness in eight countries.
Figure 7 shows the distribution of the numbers of funders, with, for comparison, the corresponding percentages found for a large structured sample of oncology papers from 2003.
The case of a structured sample is more intriguing.
Using a structured sample drawn from a large set of field populations, we determined the range of light, soil moisture and soil nutrient conditions that the species currently occupies in this region and the proportional distribution of individuals in differing types of microsite, and compared them with field measurements that were similarly determined 15 years earlier.
In a structured sampling program, the seasonal patterns of host plant use by Thrips tabaci Lindeman, Frankliniella occidentalis Pergrande and F. schultzei Trybom (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) were quantified in relation to their invasion of cotton crops.
PLS is a paradigm for structured sampling of a hypercube parameter space by placing and incrementally adding samples at each level of the design in a manner intended to efficiently leverage the samples at all previous levels.
Structured sampling of a pre-determined set of environmental surfaces distributed over the general medicine and surgical wards at each participating hospital was conducted one day a week for four consecutive weeks.
A structured, purposive sample of patients in the different phases of FS, 17 as defined by the UK guidelines, 11 with a story to tell, 18 was selected by the clinicians.
The structured sample in terms of gender and age distribution is presented in Table 1.
Using computer simulation, Luikart and Cornuet (1999) examined the effect of a family-structured sample on the reliability of the heterozygote-excess method.
The RHEED pattern of a pre-structured sample after oxide removal is shown in Figure 2. InAs QDs are grown on top of a 16 nm GaAs BL.
