Additionally, we ascertained current practice with respect to Ureaplasma detection in preterm neonates in the UK.
Additionally, we ascertained genes expressed primarily in the sex tissues of males (testis and accessory gland) or females (ovary) by calculating breadths of gene expression (see Materials and Methods for details).
Additionally, to ascertain whether these stress-responsive genes were involved in the response to cold or drought stress in A. mongolicus, we compared these stress-responsive genes with previously reported abiotic stress genes from other organisms documented in the Comparative Stress Genes Catalog of GCP (Generation Challenge Programme, http://www.generationcp.org).
Additionally, to ascertain cell death, cells were incubated with 2.5 mg/mL propidium iodide (PI) for 5 min at room temperature and analyzed with a FACSCanto II flow cytometer (Becton Dickson, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) and Flowing Software (version 2.5.1; http://www.flowingsoftware.com/).com/
Additionally, it is ascertained that the hydrothermal synthesis method is able to produce a spherical shaped submicron particle.
Additionally, frailty was ascertained prior to the report of falls, so its predictive value could be assessed.
Additionally, dietary information was ascertained using a validated food frequency questionnaire, and information was available on several potential confounders.
Additionally, delivery weight was ascertained 2 4 weeks prior to delivery for 3.9% of the women with measurements in the EHR (31.36 ± 5.88 kg/m) and is likely an underestimate of their true weight at delivery (for women measured within 2 weeks of delivery: 32.72 ± 5.84 kg/m), as is delivery weight by self-report (31.74 ± 5.72 kg/m).
Additionally, and to ascertain the robustness of the findings, the three specifications above are also estimated with two different control variables and an alternative indicator of trade openness.
