Increased but variable degrees of CO2 outgassing and steam (bubble) formation during thermal fluid flow are also strongly suggested by the analyzed C and O isotopic distribution and evolution in the carbonate scale-fragments (Fig. 6; Additional file 1: Tables S3, S4).
Even within the same patch, there is often significant but variable degrees of selectivity with respect to forage species (Manser and Brotherton 1995), phenological status of plant (Hiernaux and Turner 1996), plant part (Ayantunde et al. 1999), and physiological state of plant as affected by nutrient and moisture availability (Belsky 1986; McNaughton and Georgiadis 1986).
Although high recurrence of HCC is the major challenge but variable degree of benefit has been observed by use of chemotherapeutic agents such as interferon [ 5, 6].
This variability is illustrated by the recent findings from Koeffler and co-workers showing that vorinostat produced a profound but variable degree of inhibition of proliferation of lymphoma and leukaemia cells, including Burkitt, B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (B-ALL), MCL, DLBCL, ATL and T-cell (Sakajiri et al, 2005).
These trends (solid lines in Figure 7) are consistent with those of granitic rocks, suggesting that the chemical variations of these samples are largely inherited from the granitic source rocks, but with variable degrees of differentiation.
In mouse, TCF3-deficient embryos undergo gastrulation but exhibit variable degrees of defects.
All horses were clinically healthy but had variable degrees of insulin sensitivity, were some horses were defined as insulin resistant.
These trends imply considerable ongoing dissemination and intermixing of ST131 lineages among locales (sufficient to largely preclude establishment of locale-specific populations) but with variable degrees of intermixing versus segregation by locale and pulsotype.
Type I disease, the most prevalent form, lacks central nervous system involvement but presents primarily with variable degrees of hepatosplenomegaly, cytopenia, and bone disease.
Invariant NKT cells, possibly owing to the rare nature of the cells, showed variable degrees of loss but all other cells remained stable after storage (data not shown).
All of these mutants, with the exception of katG, showed variable degrees of attenuation, but most of them e.g., wbtDEF, iglC, purMCD, and dsbB appeared to confer little or no protection against a challenge with wild-type SCHU S4 [12], [14], [15], [15].
