The phrase "attributable to subtle" is not correct as it is incomplete and lacks context.
It could be used in a context where you are discussing the causes or reasons behind something that is nuanced or not immediately obvious.
Example: "The changes in behavior were attributable to subtle shifts in the environment that went unnoticed."
Alternatives: "due to subtle" or "resulting from subtle".
The discrepancy toward our previously published results may be attributable to subtle technical differences, such as the way of placing a stitch, aligning the target vessels, positioning the posttransplant with possible distortion of the aortic root, and obtaining optimal hemostasis, given the nature of this technically demanding and thus fairly surgeon-dependent procedure.
There are differences in perceptions between the genders in relation to the "leaky pipeline phenomenon", being attributable to subtle discrimination, and this is, suspiciously, denied by those who are well represented in scientific committees, where evaluation rules and selection mechanisms and decisions associated with candidates are made in hospital medicine.
Additionally, in the present study we observed associations primarily with the shorter AGD measure (AGDas) whereas in the SFF study associations were stronger for AGDap (Swan 2008)—a difference that may be attributable partly to subtle differences in measurement methods between the two studies, but is largely unexplained.
The subtler effects attributable to the wave property of visible light, however, require the explanations of physical optics.
A third possibility is that the magnitude of risk associated with benign proliferative lesions, and in particular atypical hyperplasia, is so much greater than the effect of alcohol that we were underpowered to detect more subtle increases in risk attributable to alcohol in this study.
6, 7 An important conclusion from these studies is that the substantial amount of retinal ganglion cell loss and axonal degeneration following episodes of MS associated optic neuritis (MSON) masks the more subtle degree of neurodegeneration attributable to more globally acting mechanisms.
Closer inspection of the histologically normal liver cluster indicated subtle clustering based on genotype, attributable to the presence of the HBsAg transgene.
The discrepancy in the literature may be attributable to LV load dependence of LVFS and to relative insensitivity of LVFS in detecting subtle systolic dysfunction.
Thus, a subtle thickness reduction in the mineralized collagen fibrils would be primarily attributable to the structural variation in our experiment.
People tend to attribute things to pure achievement that are, in fact, not attributable to achievement.
It is possible that the discrepancy among evolutionary rate estimates for RHDV is partially attributable to variation among datasets (uneven temporal or geographic representation, number of taxa, portion of genome analyzed) and/or subtle methodological variations [ 34- 36].
