To estimate the amount of correlation attributable to steady state flux constraints alone, 1000 uncorrelated normally distributed (μ = 1; σ = 0.30) random numbers were applied to the model as Vmax modulators.
In addition, the correlation and attributable variation of POPs to lipids varies across studies (Guo et al. 1987; Porta et al. 2009), which is partially due to variation in the lipid extraction methods used by investigators.
For DBP, the lack of correlation may be attributable to the low number of samples with concentrations above the LOD.
This surprisingly high degree of correlation is perhaps attributable to the commercial operations (use of standard protocols and well-tested proteomics analysis platform that also supports high-volume commercial operations at Monarch Life Sciences).
The absence of correlation might be attributable to differences in study designs as well as cell type and cell state differences.
The positive correlation is attributable to detailed TEK of vegetation dynamics observed over time.
Model results are presented in Table 2, showing a fraction of variability attributable to spatial correlation of 71% for men and 62% for women, indicating the presence of a strong spatial pattern in both cases.
Attenuation after adjustment for various risk factors may be attributable to a strong correlation of these risk factors [ 22] rather than to confounding.
As our study imposed no environmental perturbations on the 3 genotypes, we suggest that the observed changes in the topology of metabolomic correlation networks are attributable to underlying tissue- and/or genotype-dependent biochemical regulations.
The correlation of NTM disease with gender did not appear to be attributable to a higher prevalence of concurrent medical conditions or concomitant medication use among women.
