For patients included into this study, however, the cognitive function assessed by the EORTC QLQ-C30 cognitive score was comparable to the cognitive function reported in the general Norwegian population [ 15].
Our data suggest a function of ENVOY in coordination of the light signal with other environmental signals, which is comparable to the gating function shown for VVD of Neurospora crassa.
Unlike the plots of tuning curve widths, the neurometric is directly comparable to the psychometric function shown earlier (Fig. 2).
Functions of CXCR3-A are comparable to the CXCR3 functions in mice.
This procedure allowed us to obtain, for each session, a quantitative description of how well simultaneously recorded neurons could categorize stimuli, i.e., a neurometric function comparable to the behavioral psychometric function.
While the cytoarchitectural fields may indeed represent segregated functional units comparable to the elaborate auditory functions in the human brain, they may still share cochleotopic gradients, as is indeed known for the continuous gradients between the core and some of the belt areas in the macaque [30].
Hh-interacting protein (HIP), a membrane-associated or soluble glycoprotein that binds Hh ligand with an affinity comparable to the Ptc receptor, functions as an endogenous Hh ligand inhibitor.
In this context it is of interest that some human VMCM patients that harbor p.R915H mutations suffer from ventricular septal defects, even though the hyper-phosphorylated state of the human mutant proteins might not be directly comparable to the loss-of-function situation of tie-2 mutant zebrafish embryos.
Comparing binding energy predictions with 229 experimentally determined binding energies from the Ligand-Protein Database (http://lpdb.chem.lsa.umich.edu) (61), R osettaL igand achieved an overall correlation coefficient of 0.63, which is comparable to the best scoring functions available for protein−ligand interfaces (62).
Although TACs for both whole blood and plasma were available for the ex vivo and dex groups, the whole blood TAC was used as the input function as it was considered to be more directly comparable to the image-derived input function from the dynamic PET scans.
