In the past, safety against disproportionate collapse of key elements has been increased by non-structural protective measures such as barriers, sacrificial elements and limitation or control of public access.
* A rating system could create incentives for schools "to focus disproportionate resources on data elements that can change rankings without necessarily changing the quality of the institution.
Schools were selected using probability proportionate to size and that there was an element of disproportionate stratification to allow analysis at local health board (LHB) level.
Macrodystrophia lipomatosa is a rare form of congenital disorder in which there is localized gigantism characterized by progressive overgrowth of all mesenchymal elements with a disproportionate increase in the fibroadipose tissues.
We show that high levels of LTR retrotransposons likely characterize all crown salamanders, suggesting that disproportionate expansion of this transposable element (TE) class contributed to genomic expansion.
First described by Feriz in 1925, macrodystrophia lipomatosa is an unusual form of local hypertrophy, congenital in origin but not hereditary [1, 2, 3], and characterized by proliferation of all mesenchymal elements but with a disproportionate increase in adipose tissue.
Microsatellites and RNA repeats (particularly rRNA, included in the "other" repeat class) had the most disproportionate tag enrichment of the repetitive elements.
Fgf9 −/− mice display disproportionate shortening of the proximal skeletal elements (rhizomelia), but the limb bud development and mesenchymal condensations are normal.
We show DNA methylation and chromatin divergence between duplicated regions are linked to the divergence of particular genetic motifs, with Alu elements having played a disproportionate role in the evolution of the epigenome in the human lineage.
Current design and regulatory documents require the assessment of certain buildings with regard to their vulnerability to disproportionate collapse through notional load-bearing element removal followed by an alternative path analysis.
Because M28 GAS strains contain the RD2 element and cause a disproportionate number of postpartum infections, we hypothesized that serotype M28 GAS would be able to survive and persist in human AF, similarly to GBS.
