However, there was no clearly deficient measure.
This study deals with the potential problems related to, first, relying on self-reported weight and height to calculate BMI (misreporting), and, second, the concern that BMI is a deficient measure of body fat (misclassification).

To investigate whether this increase was caused by an augmented activation of autophagy, levels of the signal adaptor protein p62, an autophagosome cargo that is eliminated by autophagy and accumulates when autophagy is deficient, were measured in control RNA-transfected cells and in PPAR γ siRNA-transfected cells.
To account for these differences in consumption, we compared the effect of NAC on the relative weight of BMAL1-deficient animals (measured at each time point as % of the body weight of WT mice of the same group.
Finally, extra riboflavin was added to the Y. lipolytica cell growth medium to increase its concentration 10-fold (from ∼10 to 100 µg ml−1); wild-type cell growth was unaffected and no improvement was observed in the activities of either flavin-deficient variant measured in membranes.
Some philosophers also consider that it should bind people particularly to their own states, i.e., the states of which they are residents or citizens, and that an argument that could not show that one had more stringent duties to obey one's own country than a similarly just foreign one would be in that measure deficient (Simmons 1979, 31 35; Green 1988, 227 28).
For countries with deficient vital records, MEASURE Evaluation has developed Sample Vital Registration with Verbal Autopsy (SAVVY) for strengthening vital events monitoring and measurement, including causes of death (10).
Although Myk/+ and +/+ mice showed roughly comparable levels of alternation, only +/+ mice exceeded the chance level, suggesting that Myk/+ mice were deficient in this measure of short term spatial memory.
Intracellular ATP levels in control and ME2 deficient cells were measured by ATP Bioluminescence Assay Kit CLS II (Roche, Germany) according to manufacturer's instructions.
To determine the relationship between NO formation and contractile activity, the force production of detrusor tissue segments from wild type and eNOS deficient bladders was measured.
