HIA and HPP have been used interchangeably to characterise the increasing interest and activity in influencing public policy to improve health and health equity.
In our previous study, in order to improve productivity, flax plants with overexpression of the β-1,3-glucanase gene were generated and characterised by the increase in resistance to fungal infection [ 27].
The last decade has been characterised by the increased development of cross-company relationships, alliances and more complex business networks.
Such community institutions and relationships emerge and develop under conditions characterised by the increased transience of populations, greater communication possibilities, increased marketisation of relations and stark economic, and social and ethnic heterogeneity (Knox-Clarke and Ramalingam 2012).
Gas permeability of glassy polymer membranes is directly related to the conditioning history of a polymer: the state of the glassy polymer characterised by the increased values of porosity and BET surface area corresponds to the more permeable state of a membrane.
In summary, the present study demonstrated that in rats, STZ-induced diabetes impairs endothelial function and exerts differential effects on aortic stiffness, characterised by the increased PWV at supraphysiological MAP levels, whereas aortic elasticity was preserved at a lower pressure range.
The shape parameter κ characterises the rate of increase of the dispersion ratio.
To characterise the PTZ-induced increase in locomotor activity further, we microinjected a muscle-specific transgene encoding the fluorescent calcium reporter GCaMP-3 into embryos at the one-cell stage.
This study is a part of a large experimental program intended to characterise the effects of increasing temperature upon the hydraulic and poro-mechanical behaviour of a limestone from Anstrude, France.
With recent significant advances in the ability to characterise the gut microbiota in increasing detail, comes the recognition of the importance of the microbiota not only in gastrointestinal health, but also in systemic metabolism and cardiometabolic health, with the immune system and inflammatory processes central to gut systemic tissue 'cross-talk'.
