The present study assessed the difference of hemodynamic changes between schizophrenic patients and healthy controls during a Japanese word production task (shiritori) based on a single-event-related design measured by a multi-channel NIRS system.
We assessed the difference of means and SD for continuous variables using a 1-way analysis of variance test (ANOVA) and for differences between proportions using a χ2 test.
The ANOVA method was applied to assess the differences of SUVmax of BAT in different locations between the 2 study groups.
Besides, one nucleotide varied in probe sequence region between SCSMV genotypes; therefore, two different probes (SCSMV-QPCR-P1 and -P2) were designed to assess the differences of PCR efficiency with the same RNA template.
To assess the differences of IAVs among species, we defined the distance between species (DBS, see Methods) as the average difference of amino acid (or codon) distribution in each loci between viruses sampled from different species.
For post-treatment scans, the Mann-Whitney U-test was used to assess the differences of the investigated parameters between treatment/control groups.
Chi-square test was performed to assess the differences of the gender, PGIC distribution, and the proportion of responders among 3 groups.
The purposes of the present study were to evaluate whether shortened APTTs and increased fibrinogen levels are related to increased FPG and HbA1c levels, and to assess the differences of APTT and fibrinogen levels among the three groups.
To assess the differences of LINE-1 methylation status between normal mucosa, adenoma, cancer and cancer mesenchymal connective tissue, 25 samples of early CRC in adenoma (TisN0M0) were selected by a pathologist (R.R.T).
