This can be accomplished by limiting the selection of stars according to their apparent magnitudes.
Bias within individual studies was minimized by limiting the selection of studies for meta-analysis to randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind studies and excluding studies with "extreme" conditions, such as very high doses of IPP/VPP, very short duration of intake, and populations consisting of subjects with treated hypertension.
Because of its role in melanoma progression, targeting the MMP-2 antigen by immunotherapy might be particularly effective by limiting the potential selection of antigen loss variants.
We conclude that by limiting the hit selection to genes that are targeted by two independent shRNAs we have only selected 'on-target' hits from a complex library.
By limiting the patient selection to three weeks following onset, the sample size was still sufficiently large and the contribution of differences in clinical practice could be minimized.
In fact, before a San Jose jury handed down its seven-figure decision against Samsung, we wrote that an Apple win would hurt consumers by driving up prices and limiting the selection of mobile devices in the U.S. Think whatever you want of the similarities between the designs of the Apple iPhone and the Samsung Galaxy S series.
In the current study, manageability of the analysis was maintained by limiting the sample to a random selection of 150 women.
However, this sensitivity analysis may introduce selection bias by limiting the analysis to possibly non-susceptible participants.
Therefore, total selectivity and relative impact on a preferred patch type or plant species can be reduced by limiting the numbers of levels available for selection.
We assumed that by limiting the same resource to different degrees, selection would target the same trait(s) in each treatment, but that mutations that could potentially improve the trait(s) would be proportionately more beneficial in harsher resource conditions.
The gravitational field has played a major role in shaping evolution when life moved from water to land, even if, for a while, it has been generally deemed to influence natural selection only by limiting the range of acceptable body sizes, according to Galilei's principle.
