I Na+ was not correlated with the proportion of CF vs. non-CF cells, DTPA absorption, or ASL absorption.
The proportion of CF and SF in the mix, the w/(c + SF) ratio and the type of aggressive media have been chosen as test parameters.
Similarly, the proportion of CF patients colonized with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) continues to escalate.
Although a proportion of CF patients are infected with P. aeruginosa from other patients (cohabitating hospital wards), the major source of infection is water (Geddes 2008; Hayes et al. 2010).
Also, this study population may not be generalizable to the American CF population; although the proportion of males and adult patients is comparable to that reported to the Patient Registry in 2007, the distribution of geographic regions is not comparable to Registry data (1).
The concentration of cf-DNA was also determined in plasma samples before and after MPO immunocapture, in order to evaluate the proportion of cf-DNA originating from NETs.
We defined sensitivity and specificity as the proportion of CFs which are detected and the proportion of the NFs which are detected by mistake, respectively.
Specifically, CF patients had a greater proportion of CCSP+ cells when compared to lung donors (2.28% CF vs. 1.90% Donor, p < 0.05), while BO patients had a significantly lower proportion of CCSP+ PBMCs compared to donors (0.55% vs. 1.90% Donor, p < 0.05).
Table 3 Mix proportion of concrete (cf. Table 6 of Choi et al. 2008).
As for OPG Kcv (cf. Figure 4D), the proportion of singly glycosylated OPG TASK-1 N53Q at the shOPG TASK-1 N53Qngth atalysed appeared higher then that typically obshortestith the OPG tag [ 11].
