As shown in Table 4, the total number of medications, the pill burden, and depression were associated with increased irregularity (larger ApEn), while euthymia was associated with decreased irregularity (smaller ApEn).
Metoprolol significantly decreased beating irregularity and reduced arrhythmia in HCM CMs.
They offer an intuitive way of quantifying neural irregularity since with increasing versus decreasing irregularity of the EEG signal, entropy of the EEG will increase versus decrease, respectively.
The manifestations of chaos in landforms and landscapes take the form of divergent vs. convergent evolution (increasing vs. decreasing irregularity), disproportionality vs. proportionality of response to perturbations or initial variations, and the (lack of) geographical consistency or commonality of response.
The number of changes in surface irregularities decreased to two to three per 400 μm on the mature EVPOMEs.
Increasing content of m-hydroxybenzoic acid units, which increased the amount of structural irregularity, decreased the isotropization temperature and the temperature at which the melt started to flow, and also caused a loss of both crystallinity and of liquid crystallinity.
Several grading systems have been developed to determine the degree of degeneration radiographically, using signs of subchondral sclerosis, joint space irregularity, decreased joint space and anterior and/or posterior osteophyte formation [ 9, 11, 12, 20- 22].
35 Side effects include increased seborrhea, acne, hair growth, deepening of the voice, decreased breast size, menstrual irregularities, decreased libido, weight gain, lipid abnormalities, and hypertension.
Our finding that skin brightness and inhomogeneous dark marking around the nose predict perception of chronological age echoes the widespread evidence that cumulative exposure over the lifespan to solar ultraviolet light causes increase of skin pigment irregularities and decreased homogeneity of skin reflectance [ 15, 16].
29 Gonadal dysfunction is common in both men and women, presenting as decreased libido, infertility, menstrual irregularity or amenorrhea in women, and erectile dysfunction in men.
Erosion: an area of decreased density or discontinuity or irregularity of the cortical bone.
