In contrast, recent contributions from the technology lifecycle literature have argued that policies should be tailored to differing technological characteristics in industries for mass-produced standardized goods, complex engineered products, and as we argue complex product systems (CoPS).
It is reasonable to assume that patients between GPs differ in some characteristics, for example personality characteristics of the GP.
Moreover, patients receiving prescriptions for different analogues might differ for clinical characteristics, potentially accounting for diversities in cancer incidence, such a prescription bias could be particularly relevant in register-based studies, which allow adjustments for a limited number of confounders.
The fact that the DMIRET was highly correlated between pollutants with differing chemical characteristics (correlation coefficient > 0.99 for all three pollutants we studied) indicates that model outputs for one pollutant could be readily extrapolated to other pollutants without complex chemical reactions or extensive in-situ formation.
According to multiple binary logistic regression analysis, MIG and MOH patients were comparable in terms of demographic characteristics, whereas they differed for some characteristics of illness (age of migraine onset, duration of illness, frequency of headache), disability and QoL, as well as for depression levels.
CONCLUSIONS: Infants with baseline and acquired colonisation differ for demographics characteristics and for their response to fluconazole prophylaxis.
Based on the distributions presented in the Table 1, the consent rates appeared to differ for all characteristics, except for gender.
Comparisons of test results are performed between groups of specimens differing only for one characteristic (deterioration state, corrosion test performed, rubber shape and geometry).
Results show that preferred and actual partner's characteristics differ for male judges, but not for females.
Let's refer to them as "work twins". However, these work twins differ in their personal characteristics: for instance, one is black and the other is white; or one is male and the other female; or one is Muslim and the other is Christian; or one is a democrat and the other is a republican.
