Paramidline mandibulotomy, which preserves the geniohyoid and genioglossus muscles, should be a better function-preserving operation than midline mandibulotomy.
For the polar regions, the varying shell height approach produced better results than the fixed shell height and compared to exponential function, Chapman function seems to be a better function to model the topside ionosphere.
A hydrated brain is a better functioning brain.
Remarkably, the result is a better functioning valve that has relieved much of the resistance to the blood flow that was imposed by the stiff valve.
A properly hydrated body is a better functioning body, one that may be more conducive to platelet formation.
The t location-scale distribution was shown to be a better candidate function for frequencies of lower modes.
Moreover, a rule-based model that captures site-specific details may actually be a better fitting function than an ODE model.
This suggests that the lamented doctor shortage in the United States is the result of an artificially constrained supply of medical school places and residency slots, which serves to inflate physician incomes above what they would be in a better functioning market without supply constraints.
Even though it is important to measure the degree of symptoms, sick-leave may be a better measure of functioning, and such studies are lacking.
