Depending on the abnormality measure of each signal, we classify the signal into normal or pathological.
The abnormalities measured during this study are particularly important because they are associated with impaired growth and reduced survival at concentrations ≥120 μg Cr l−1.
We used a cross-sectional design to determine whether white matter abnormalities measured using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) were present in adolescents and adults with ASD and whether age-related changes in white matter microstructure differed between ASD and typically developing (TD) individuals.
We then additionally adjusted for total burden of coagulation abnormalities measured on ED presentation because hemostasis markers differed across age groups.
There was no correlation, however, between functional and morphological microvascular abnormalities measured by LDI and NFC, suggesting that these are complementary tools for evaluation of SSc microangiopathy.
That study, however, considered lead exposure and conduction abnormalities measured at the same time and therefore had to include people with existing conduction deficits.
In this study, we showed that a range of retinal microvascular abnormalities, measured quantitatively and qualitatively, were associated with DPN, as defined from quantitative sensory testing.
However, there is little evidence of correlation between lung findings by imaging and abnormalities measured by spirometry [ 11, 12, 14, 16, 21].
Kinematic abnormalities measured by 3D stifle kinematic were correlated with degrees of early osteoarthritis in surgical models of anterior cruciate ligament/medial collateral ligament transection performed in Suffolk-cross sheep [ 14].
The lack of correlation between functional and morphological microvascular abnormalities, measured by LDI and NFC, suggests they are complementary tools for evaluation of independent microangiopathy aspects in SSc patients.
