Based on a comparison of the weekly transfusion rate before screening and the transfusion rate between 28/29 and 53/55 weeks of treatment, 1 patient from each group achieved a ≥50% decrease in transfusions; the remainder of those who were transfusion-dependent at screening achieved a <50% decrease in transfusions (1 patient in the ESA-naïve group and 6 patients in the ESA-treated group).
In five cases brightness had increased by the end of the moult year whereas decreases were detected in the remainder nine, although for some of these the change was only slight and non-significant (e.g. back and breast of blue tit and great tit, Figure 6B).
According to Keraita et al. (2008), the fecal coliform die-off exhibits an exponential decrease in stabilization ponds, where the rates are higher during the initial days of storage and then decrease during the remainder of the monitoring period.
The mean number of fragments that showed changes in methylation state between the amphihaploid to amphidiploid profiles was 161.3 on average, of which 57.3 showed a decrease in methylation, whereas the remainder exhibited an increase in methylation (table 3).
As can be clearly seen in Figure 4B, a slight increase in effective vaccine coverage in the whole population, resulting from a programme of increasing vaccination coverage in children, results in a large decrease in RR of infection in the remainder of the community.
While both values exceed our observations, the excess of singletons by necessity decreases the proportion of sites in the remainder of the remainder of the SFS.
However, evidence for these were observed in only the minority of tumours, and in the remainder the decrease in gene expression was even greater at three months than at 10 to 14 days.
INS was higher at G21 then decreased for the remainder of the study in both control and HG dams.
Scores were highest at week 4 and then decreased over the remainder of the treatment period.
One calf was persistently culture-positive for 43 days; in the remainder, the VTEC O157 H7 count in faeces decreased over the first 2 weeks.
