Children were allocated to a normal range or a clinical (elevated) range, using the 90th percentiles of the Dutch normative sample for the validated Dutch version[ 10].
Our data confirm that elevated serum IgG4 levels were found not only in IAC patients, but also in a considerable fraction (15%) of a large cohort of PSC patients, that the PPV of a sIgG4 in the lower elevated range between 1.4 and 2.8 g/L for IAC was only 28%, and that therefore serum IgG4 was insufficient to discriminate between PSC and IAC.
The effect of temperature on the irradiation response of one of these compounds, nanocrystalline Lu2Ti2O7, was further examined by performing ion irradiation at an elevated temperature range of 480 600 K.
Compression experiments were conducted on slender glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) laminates at different temperatures in the elevated range.
Maintenance channel using transparent steel grid form not only retains the elevated range of good permeability effect but also replaces the cable tray under the track beam (see Fig. 17) [3].
House dust has been suspected as a source of lead in the exposure of children, particularly those whose blood lead levels are in the moderately elevated range.
However, 3 of the 11 water wells contain methane with δH and δC values that plot within the elevated range of values that characterizes Marcellus production gas in the Dimock Township (δC-CH4 > –30‰, δH-CH4 > –162‰).
Net reclassification indexes for PTX3 levels ≥1 ng/ml in BAL fluid were elevated (range =0.38 to 0.55) in comparison to all other mediators and to CPIS with gain in sensitivity, specificity or both (Table 2).
Net reclassification indexes for PTX3 levels ≥7 ng/ml in BAL fluid were elevated (range =0.32 to 0.66) in comparison to all other mediators and to CPIS with gains in sensitivity, specificity or both.
In an Indian context, an elevated concentration ranging from 5 to 300 mg/L was reported from Gangapur City, Rajasthan, posing serious health impacts (Agarwal 2012).
In 5 cases (18%) the amount of bloodstained serous fluid was judged as elevated, ranging from 1 to 3 dl in each cavity.
