Runoff coefficient sensitivity is driven by elevation (temperature) driven controls on the proportion of precipitation falling as snow vs. rain, combined with decreasing evapotranspiration with increasing elevation.
The effect of corticosteroids compared with control on mortality; the proportion of patients experiencing shock-resolution at defined times; and infective and non-infective complications were assessed using Bayesian random-effects models [ 21], via WinBUGS software [ 22] using three simultaneous runs of the program with disparate starting values.
Missing dispensing data were included but controlled for based on the proportion of missing calendar months within each particular follow-up year.
One hundred and thirty-nine studies leading to 166 pairs of acupuncture-control treatment effect comparisons (26 studies comprised of 53 intervention-control pairs) were analyzed based on the proportion of positive conclusions in different control designs.
Thus, the success of culling efforts at controlling the disease will depend on the proportion of transmission that is direct and density-dependent, as well as the proportion and timescale of indirect transmission.
The overall participation rate among cases was in the range of 83 84% and among controls was 51 61%, depending on the proportion of nonrespondents who actually received an invitation.
When we specifically compared regions that are enriched for H3K9me2 on a per-chromosome basis, we see that the proportion of the total H3K9me2-enriched area on the X chromosome is 18% greater in him-8 relative to controls, whereas the proportion of H3K9me2-enriched area on the autosomes decreases.
The standard proportional scoring method was utilized: each response is given credit based on the proportion of healthy control participants giving that response.
The present study investigated the impact of using varying proportions of the cases and controls on the power of the 'case and control' design in detecting linkage disequilibrium and shows that, for a given size of the 'case and control' sample, increasing the proportion of the 'cases' decreases rather than increases the statistical power (Table 6).
The study objectives were to assess the effect of co-administered Ig, relative to saline control, on the proportions and magnitudes of YF 17D viremia, antibody response, T cell activation, and plasma cytokines.
