It's a balance we can only monitor by indirection, through the absence of indications to the contrary.
Countermeasures were further complicated because 'trial and error' types of treatment strategies were already applied in the absence of indications and robust diagnostic tools that would have given prognostic guidance to clinicians.
Meanwhile, in the absence of indications that PLUNC family members are produced in mammalian skin, latherin may represent a remarkable adaptation of a salivary protein for heat dissipation from skin by horses and their ilk, and a readily available protein with which to study intrinsic surface activity of a naturally folded protein from a mammal.
The merit of the meta-analysis by Wischmeyer and colleagues is that it points out the absence of indications of harm in the studies included, and that potential patient benefits are identified [ 1].
The percentages of of caesarean sections attributable to relative indications in the West and in the East were similar, while the percentage of caesarean sections in the absence of indications was higher in the West.
In the absence of indications that the evolution of the gdh gene families is radically different from other families, these results suggest that gene transfer might be an important evolutionary mechanism in microbial eukaryote genome evolution.
Consequently, strains that have accumulated amino acid replacements in epitopic regions and have been shown to quickly displace co-circulating strains seem to merit attention as potentially epidemiologically significant even in the absence of indications from the HI test.
It may be described as a state of physical and mental well-being in the absence of gastro-intestinal complaints that require the consultation of a doctor, in the absence of indications of or risks for bowel disease and in the absence of confirmed bowel disease [ 6].
No significant correlation was found between the proportion of normal oocytes and (i) the type of stimulating cycle (agonist or antagonist), (ii) the use of clomiphene, (iii) the presence of male infertility, tubal infertility or idiopathic infertility, (iv) the absence of indications to FISH PB and (v) the number of collected oocytes.
