Pre-operative cytologic identification of BRAF mutation has high specificity and may guide the initial extent of thyroidectomy and node dissection.
A single-molecule FRET study showed that ∼20 90% of early elongation complexes harboring 11- or 14-nt transcripts retain the σ factor with a half-life between 20 and 90 min. The initial extent of σ retention may increase to ∼70 100%, depending on the DNA sequence.
Because of the high risk of recurrent cast formation, the most critical component of plastic bronchitis management is close monitoring of any affected child, irrespective of the underlying condition, the initial extent and the course of the disease.
The forest cover has also been expanded mainly due to area gains from shrubs by about 28.4% (354.97 ha), and farmland and settlement by about 28.2% (351.86 ha) despite some portions of the initial extent of was simultaneously converted mainly into farmland and settlement.
In this study period, expansion of grasslands was dominantly attributed to conversions of farmland and settlement by about 52% (4125.97 ha) despite some of the initial extent was largely converted into farmlands and settlement by about 31.2% (1834.12 ha).
In this last period of analysis, the expansion of farmland and settlement was observed due to areas mainly gained from shrubs by about 6.5% (924.75 ha) and grasslands by about 22.8% (3259.98 ha) although some of the initial extent of has been largely converted into shrubs by about 25.5% (3534.84 ha).
The initial extent of each major faction's territory, and the factions available, depends on the starting period of the game, Early (1087), High (1205) or Late (1321), reflecting the historical state of these factions over time.
It is shown that discrepancies between different estimates reflect differences in the initial extent of the DEM used for watershed delineation, and the unchecked effect of iterative pit-filling of the DEM (going beyond the filling of erroneous pixels to filling entire closed basins).
The initial extent of racemization between the colonies was similar and AAR values within individual colonies followed stratigraphically consistent trajectories.
On the other hand, a yield stress may decrease the initial extent of the coating flow.
