One obvious possibility is, of course, that different strains of AD model mice may differ in the severity and/or spatial distribution of AD pathologies they express at a given age and concomitantly in the severity and type of sensory and cognitive impairment.
From the magnitude of estimates of QOL differences observed between current and former smokers and between groups differing in the severity of smoking symptoms, it is likely that QOL changes from smoking to non-smoking will be in the range typically considered an important effect size using accepted QOL standards.
Urgencies and emergencies differ in the severity of the consequences of a delay in treatment.
One of the central questions is whether raters differ in the severity with which they rate and how consistent they are in the criteria they apply.
Many IIS mutations exist and they differ in the severity and kind of their phenotypic effects [ 3, 34].
Although these models differ in the severity of biochemical impairment and clinical outcome, all maintain some residual COX activity in skeletal muscle, similar to the corresponding human conditions.
The ability to identify groups of inhalant users differing in the severity of their IUDs may be important for treatment purposes.
Strains of E. coli O157 H7 differ in the severity of disease they cause in humans and can lead to bloody diarrhea, renal failure, hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), or death.
The two cohorts did not differ in the severity of stenosis 50-700 % symptomatic or ≥70%% even asymptomatic); the two groups were homogeneous in all outcome measures found at time 0 (Hamilton, SF-12; Overall IC; Verbal IC and Performance IC scores) or in distribution by age (Table 1, age F = 0.14, P = 0.71,DF = 1,38,39) or gender (Table 1, χ2 = 2.22, DF = 1, P = 0.26).
Others simply leave it up to the respondent to recall an actual conflict (e.g., Elsayed-Ekhouly & Buda, 1996; Gabrielidis et al., 1997; Kim et al., 2007; Oetzel & Ting-Toomey, 2003; Rahim, 1983 , 1986 Ting-Toomey & Kurogi, 1998), implying that they may differ in the severity of conflict recalled and with what type of relational target.
