Second, this technique is more likely to reflect acute tissue hypoxia (perfusion-related and often transient) than chronic (caused by increased oxygen diffusion distances due to tumour expansion) hypoxia and requires the simultaneous assessment of the functionality of tumour vasculature.
An assessment of the functionality, usability and receipt of the remote PV lab by students has been performed in the TEI of Athens and the results are presented below.
To conclude, microdialysis and PET ([18 F]FDOPA and [11C]DTBZ) are sensitive techniques for assessment of the functionality of the dopaminergic system and may both be crucial in furthering our understanding of diseases such as Parkinson's.
Finally, since the ability to prime and stimulate T cell proliferation is an important assessment of the functionality of DCs [25], we performed a mixed leucocyte reaction (MLR) to determine the proliferation of allogeneic lymphocytes induced by mature DCs.
Since we made no direct assessment of the functionality of the truncated carA homologs in S. glossinidius and SOPE, or the lux gene homologs in SOPE, we reasoned that it would be useful to perform tests of selection on these putative coding sequences.
However, prior to determining the effects of sAPPα on gene expression, we sought to extend our assessment of the functionality of recombinant sAPPα.
The Health Facility Census (HFC), developed by the Japan International Cooperation Agency, is a national-level assessment of the functionality of health system assets, providing extensive information useful for health system planning [ 32].
To provide a more complete assessment of the functionality of CD8+ T-cells expressing cognate T-cell receptors (TCR), measurement of CD107a and b expression can be combined with MHC-class I tetramer labeling and ICS [ 35].
In fact, besides the need for empirical studies to appraise the cost-effectiveness (as in the case of the work presented in [22]), the testing with actual patients (see the study in [24]) and the assessment of the functionalities of the involved technologies [25] should not be disregarded.
As for the assessments of the physical function, physical functionality, mental function, and social function, the statistically significant favorable change is more marked in the carbohydrate counting group compared to the control group (P < 0.05*).
