Given the likelihood that myopia induced by lens defocus shares many of the same mechanisms and ultrastructural changes as form deprivation [21], [29], it is probable that inhibiting potassium movements in such retinae would interfere with defocus induced refractive and growth changes, especially as apical potassium and basal chloride appear to be strongly linked in the RPE [30].
Mortality from a range of conditions such as cirrhosis of the liver are known to be strongly linked in a dose-response fashion to alcohol intake [ 9].
Traditionally, cybersecurity and surveillance have not been strongly linked in policy discussions, and have been often presented as complementary: the notion that spying on one's enemies will help in securing digital networks from attack.
Levels of promiscuity and testicle size are strongly linked in animals, those with the largest pair tending to mate with more partners.
In contrast to this stylized view, despite having among some of the highest levels of per capita income in the world, energy and GDP are strongly linked in the GCC.
13 goals in 41 appearances for the Saints led to an England call-up; he scored on his debut, and was strongly linked in the press with a summer move to Manchester United.
Interestingly, four out of five SNPs (rs11571315, rs231775, rs231723, and rs231725), which could not improve the model with rs231779, were strongly linked in the Xuzhou population and not the independent susceptibility variants in the forward logistic analysis.
Changes of neuronal dynamics and synaptic connectivity are strongly linked in dependence on the relative timing of the pre-and postsynaptic spikes by the spike timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) [Gerstner et al., 1996; Markram et al., 1997].
An example may be if a (nutritional) intervention induced an increase in NK-cell activity back to the reference range and it is known that decreased levels of NK-cell activity have been strongly linked in the literature with decreased defence against pathogens or tumours in particular populations (e.g. athletes and elderly individuals).
Some of the growth results obtained with our approach may be due simply to higher caloric density of the milk, however, protein intake has been found to be strongly linked to growth in VLBW infants [ 21].
In conclusion, it can be reasonably supposed that cognitive decline associated with AD might be strongly linked to an increase in MG levels due to an oxoaldehyde detoxification impairment or an altered endogenous oxoaldehyde production.
