However, this does not hamper the main finding of the present study that the decline of volume-associated differences between structures parallels the growing recourse to breast conservation.
The lung volume increase did not have an impact on the annual decline of lung volume, which remained equal to 52 ml in patients in the treatment and comparator arms.
Logging in severely fragmented SF accelerated the decline of bole volume.
Subjects with diabetes had worse cognitive performance and smaller brain volumes in comparison with the control group, but these characteristics did not correlate with the cerebrovascular reactivity, nor with the progressive decline of brain volume in the follow-up [ 37].
This difference will create a blood-brain gradient of urea, and will lead to accumulation of water in brain cells and a slower decline of cell volume, which is the mechanism that leads to osmotic demyelination.
After 40 months of randomized treatment, no between-group difference in worsening of cognitive test scores over time was apparent, but an expected decline of brain volume was significantly attenuated (P = 0.0007) in the intensive treatment group (30).
Also, although the decline of brain volume is observed with ageing, Venkatraman et al. [ 70] have shown compensatory increased functional activity in the right posterior parietal cortex among elders with high cognitive function.
Studies have shown that TCM hospitals that tried to keep TCM as their primary revenue source experienced slow growth, decline of service volume, shrinking market share, and ultimately they were struggling for survival [ 19].
Besides being stymied by Congress, the economy and the decline of mail volumes, the Post Office is exhausting its options.
At a dose of 150 mg b.i.d., the drug showed a positive trend toward a reduction in the decline of lung volumes, with fewer acute exacerbations and preserved quality of life [ 39].
Unique holidays, in which hotels are offered only through one agent, tend to be more expensive, and helped Tui offset a decline in volume of sales.
