The low levels of preparedness previously found among public health employees (Blessman et al. 2007; Rebmann et al. 2013) and first responders (Federal Emergency Management Agency 2016) may be indicative of low levels of preparedness among the public in general.
The long-term histology in those treated successfully with pegylated interferon-α and ribavirin will be of interest in this context, because loss of the inflammatory infiltrate would be consistent with eradication of HCV, while ongoing inflammation, as in this series, would be indicative of low-level HCV replication.
Conventional analyses assume degree is equal to 1; values lower than 1 indicate that some case samples display control-like expression levels, and are indicative of low frequency aberrant expression.
If a diabetic injects too much insulin, blood glucose may drop to dangerously low levels; the irritability, shakiness, sweating, headache, and confusion that ensue are indicative of low blood sugar, known as hypoglycemia.
Scores under five, meanwhile, are indicative of "low hunger".
Usually, fragments with high flexibility are indicative of low energy barrier to structural rearrangement.
However, the low cytokine responses and low levels of IgE and IgG1 to SEA observed in several infants may actually be indicative of some low level early-stage infection not detected by single stool examinations.
The absence of PrPd in LRS tissues of BSE affected deer, as in natural cattle BSE, might be indicative of a low level of circulating infectivity and suggests that BSE in deer may not be contagious under conditions of natural exposure.
(3) The thermomagnetic results show a single magnetic phase that is indicative of low-Ti titanomagnetite.
Conclusion: Based on our experience to date, borderline results and/or discordant replicates obtained with the Cobas Amplicor™ HCV Test Version 2.0 are indicative of very low level viremia (<100 copies/ml) due either to an HCV infection (patients will be seropositive) or to transient contact with the virus with or without subsequent HCV infection (patients will be seronegative and may remain so).
