The thickness was measured using the cross-sectional length of each film via scanning electron microscopy (SEM, JSM-6700 F, JEOL).
The relative density of asymmetric synapses (synapses per µm2) and the cross-sectional length of their PSDs were estimated from 15 counting frames per animal (total sampled neuropil area: 663.33 µm2).
We showed that by dichotomizing DUNDRUM-1 Triage Security item 1 to compare those who scored '4' against those who scored '3' or less, with length of stay as the dependent variable, the effect size for difference in cross-sectional length of stay was Cohen's d = 0.536 and this generated a 72.8%% chance of detecting a statistically significant difference at 5%% level in a sample of 95 in-patients.
Furthermore, to gain more insight in the working mechanism of the orthotic management in rest, morphological parameters like achilles tendon length, muscle belly length, muscle fascicle length, muscle physiological cross sectional area length and fascicle pennation angle will be measured in a subgroup of 18 participants using a 3D imaging technique.
These parameters relate to the RCE׳s cross sectional dimension, tread length, and tread speed, respectively.
The volume of a fiber can be estimated by using the formula for the volume of a cylinder: volume = cross sectional area X length.
The mechanical potential of muscle depends on gross morphology (cross sectional area, fibre length [ 1]), muscle fibre type, and muscle composition (fraction of intramuscular fat and connective tissue).
Dependent variables were bilateral volumes of the hippocampus and the ventricular system, and bilateral volumes, maximal cross sectional area and length of the ALIC.
Additionally, ALIC length and maximal cross sectional area were measured, length as the sum of slices containing ALIC, maximal cross section as maximal area of one particular slice among all slices (see Fig. 1).
Column frits were designed to maintain constant cross sectional area and path length in all channels and to retain particles down to a size of 3 μm.
Cawthon et al. (2003) have previously shown in a cross sectional study that telomere length in late human adulthood can predict longevity.
