It's in their culture, which combines an excess of professionalism with a deficient sense of proportion.
Even among patients who had developed severe 5FU toxicities, who might have been expected to be relatively DPD deficient, only a proportion of patients had reduced peripheral blood DPD levels (Milano et al, 1999; van Kuilenburg et al, 2000).
Because we oversampled cobalamin- deficient participants, a large proportion of the sample had cobalamin deficiency: 57.6% of women and 46.8% of men had < 185 pmol/L.
In conclusion, adrenal cortisol secretion following dynamic stimulation is deficient in a substantial proportion of brain-dead patients.
In regions with better-preserved neuronal populations, that is, chronically affected, there were abundant complex I deficient neurons, and the relative proportion of deficient to nondeficient neurons was accordingly higher (see Table 3, Figs 1D and 3A).
In addition, DrotAA significantly decreased the proportion of deficient patients who had a ≥ 10% drop in protein C (P = 0.0002) and numerically reduced the proportion of normal patients who had a ≥ 10% drop in protein C (P = 0.09).
The majority of the mothers had sufficient levels of 25(OH D (≥ 50 nmol/L: 68%) and only a small proportion were deficient (< 27.5 nmol/L: 5%) (Table 1 and Figure S3).
There are many studies supporting the hypotheses of pathway 1, but less experimental evidence supports pathway 2. Remarkably, our results show that the protein expression level of ZEB1 in TFK-1 cells is deficient, suggesting that the proportion of ZEB family related CSC-like cells in the TFK-1 cell line may be very low.
The proportion of patients' deficient, insufficient and sufficient in 25-hydroxyvitamin D was the same in both frequent and infrequent exacerbators groups.
Lymphocytic infiltrates are strongly associated with the development of mismatch repair-deficient cancers, although a proportion of microsatellite stable tumours also demonstrate intraepithelial lymphocytes (Ward et al, 2001).
In Nod1-deficient MEFs, a high proportion of ΔIcsB bacteria are found in the cytoplasm; this suggests that Nod-dependent autophagy restricts intracellular proliferation (Travassos et al., 2010).
