Jirtle and colleagues used that program, along with commercially available software as a further check, to scan the human genome.
As a further check, we've made sure that this consensus number closely matches the StarMine "SmartEstimate," an estimate that is adjusted for the track record of individual analysts and the timeliness of their forecasts.
As a further check for the specificity of the arNOX activity, superoxide dismutase (SOD) was added near the end of the assay to ascertain that the rate returned to baseline.
As a further check on the assumption that our results are not driven by the health component of the absenteeism we control in two separate set of regressions for two variables collected at provincial-year level related to the health conditions of the Italian population, i.e. life expectancy and mortality rate (Health for All, ISTAT 2012).
As a further check that our findings are not biased by measurement errors in the ACS questionnaire, we repeat the analysis on another US Census dataset: the June Fertility Supplement of the Current Population Survey (CPS), in which the question asked is whether women have ever had children.
As a further check, we performed a separate MR experiment in a single (identically treated) animal, which underwent four repeated ASL measurements over a much longer time period (2 h, 20 min) which yielded a constant K 1 value of 1.2 mL/min/mL to within 8% (data not shown) which provides an estimate of the actually occurring perfusion changes in the given experimental setup.
As a further check, we also analyzed several PM10 samples taken on high-purity Teflon™ media filters.
As a further check, the Sphygmocor® software incorporates a quality control feature which is displayed on the screen.
As a further check the entire 2005 NEAFC dataset comprising 797 vessels was imported into ArcGIS and patterns of vessel activity, following seafloor contours were studied.
As a further check on results from analysis of the CV, we examined the SD itself.
