However, no association has been defined in either hepatic or pulmonary fibrosis [ 93, 101, 102].
In the latter case, the flux leaving the mixing cell can be defined in two ways: either as the value when the interface is approached from the mixing-cell side (MC-RI−), or as the value when it is approached from the column side (MC-RI+).
Meta-analysis can be defined in terms of either calculating summary measures of effect by synthesizing multiple studies or summarizing variability-of-effect measures across multiple studies (Colditz et al. 1995).
In our algorithm the spatial mesh configuration can be defined in two different ways: either by an isoparametric approach that generates curved control volumes, or by a piecewise linear decomposition of each spatial control volume into simplex sub-elements.
It appears that a young Alu subfamily can be defined in two ways, either by its present-day sequence, or by its ancestry (that is, its evolutionary history at its genomic locus since the moment of integration).
The published mortality from the Swedish insurance database could be defined in two ways, either as total mortality including all registered deaths or as diagnostic mortality, i.e. when an insurance claim (with a cause of death/reason for euthanasia/diagnosis) was submitted.
The remaining parameters (e.g., maximum height of eruption column, total mass of tephra ejected, pyroclast density, size distribution of particles) can either be defined in a third text file or typed into the appropriate GUI field (Figure 2).
In this mapping system, the same coordinate can be defined in 2 different ways: by either choosing the smaller unit and adding the subunits or choosing the greater unit and reducing it by the subunits.
"Consensus" may be defined in a variety of ways, either by requiring a majority or super-majority of respondents to score an item as high-priority or by using a mean score as a cut off point.
