Further work will be dedicated to extending the present studies to different clinically relevant radiotherapy schemes and to different measures of CI functioning at different stages of the system (RF-Lock, current output, and postradiation exposure quality of the electrical stimulation).
Different measures of physical functioning were combined to create scales that indicated lower extremity functioning (19), muscular strength (18), mobility (42, 44, 45), or overall performance (33, 46).
Kuh et al. provided a possible explanation for differences in the associations of cognition with different measures of physical functioning, by suggesting that the "differential patterns of association found are consistent with the degree to which each is dependent on central nervous system function" (48, p. 38).
Physical functioning was measured across five trials by six different measures of physical functioning, varying from the Rotterdam Symptom Checklist, physical symptom distress subscale (De Haes et al, 1996) to a visual analogue scale measuring distress due to breathlessness (Corner et al, 1996; Bredin et al, 1999).
Thus, the aims of the present study were to find out (1) whether group differences between NF1-patients and healthy controls could be confirmed for different measures of social functioning and behavior, and (2) whether cognitive control, social information processing, information processing speed or general cognitive competence could explain possible group differences.
Former reports by this group have presented information on cerebral hemodynamics in healthy subjects and patients with schizophrenia during different measures of executive functioning [ 11, 12, 14].
Converging evidence from two different measures of NSI functions indicated that the functions of NSI are well captured by a two-factor structure.
Results were consistent across different measures of symptoms and functioning.
Several genomewide association studies (GWAS) of different measures of kidney function have been performed.
Different measures of cognitive function, long-term sickness absence and depression used across the cohorts.
