It remains largely unknown, however, whether alterations in immune function characterize homogeneous sub-groups of MDD.
This study aimed to identify and characterize homogeneous subgroups of individuals with distinct trajectories of physical functioning (PF) and to examine prognostic indicators of deterioration in PF in a highly heterogeneous population of older adults with joint pain and comorbidity.
First, the reactive surface area is computed from X-ray microtomography data obtained before and after a set of dissolution experiments of pure calcite rock samples using distinctly different brine CO2 mixtures characterizing homogeneous to heterogeneous dissolution regimes.
Both of these techniques have widely been used to characterize homogeneous and monocrystalline material systems, such as silicon-based devices (e.g., [11 16]), nitrides (e.g., [17, 18]), GaAs systems (e.g., [19]), single nanoparticles (e.g., [20 22]), or simple interfaces (e.g., [23 26]).
Introduction Critical illness acquired myopathy in rats is characterized by homogeneous muscle atrophy (1).
In particular, a segmentation technique is introduced for partitioning a surface into regions characterized by homogeneous local texture properties.
(a) Axial and (b) coronal T2-weighted images show a predominantly solid mass with prevalence of the fibrous stroma characterized by homogeneous low signal intensity (white arrows).
Since the data were normally distributed (P > 0.8 in the Kolmogorov Smirnov test) and characterized by homogeneous variances (F test), parametric tests were applied.
Technology and the process that produces it, research and development (R&D), are typically characterized as homogeneous entities.
Hydroxyapatite coatings obtained by plasma spraying with induction heating are characterized by homogeneous nanostructure of splats and average grain size of 20 ± 10 nm.
In many cases the microstructure of PDCs characterized by homogeneous distribution of semiconducting or conducting nano-phases in the amorphous matrix.
