Given that milk consumption is strongly encouraged and widely promoted for children in the United States [59], [60], and milk nutrients and IGF-I are both associated with somatic growth and pubertal development, it is valuable to ascertain whether milk during childhood promotes earlier sexual maturation.
The remaining processes of our framework (Fig. 1) entail sketching designs for initial model development, testing the model to ascertain whether constraints have been met, and modifying the initial design/s to produce an optimum model.
Due to the database's gradual development we were unable to ascertain patient socioeconomic status in 47.4% of cases.
KS led the design of the study, participated in the tool development and analysed data to ascertain the inter-rater reliability.
However, the aim of all the studies was to investigate effectiveness of IPT, not to ascertain development of resistance, and our analyses suggest that publication bias did not affect the summary estimate.
However, the postnatal role of those pathways that are essential for initial mammary development may be difficult to ascertain if, in their absence, the embryonic mammary rudiment fails to form in the first place, thus necessitating the use of conditional approaches.
DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.00534.014 Although kataegis could easily have resulted from a transient spike in deaminase expression during tumour development, it was interesting to ascertain whether APOBEC3A or APOBEC3B expression could be detected or induced in breast cancer-derived cells.
The structural properties of nanocomposite formed was examined by transmission electron microscope (TEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) to ascertain the development of core-shell morphology.
This geoarchaeological study looks at four distinct landforms at the Falls of the Ohio, on both the northern and southern banks, in order to ascertain the development of Holocene alluvial landforms in this area.
