Direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapies, which were recently discovered and approved, offer good tolerability, short treatment duration, fewer side effects, and high cure rates.
This could make the studies more efficient (e.g., shorter duration, fewer patients), more likely to demonstrate an effect of the drug if one exists, or more informative.
Hispanics were significantly younger, had shorter HIV infection duration, fewer years of HAART and lower systolic blood pressure, and reported a lower rate of smoking, drug use and family history of diabetes, than African-Americans or NHWs (based on Bonferroni Post-Hoc analysis).
Verbal autopsy studies are common and although they often use different recall durations, few data are available to assess the validity of different recall durations.
This type of seismic records has a short significant duration, with few pulses of high amplitude and low frequency.
They're explicitly short-term (indeed, of fixed duration), requiring few skills, with no opportunity for advancement or benefits.
These simulations were designed to mimic the loading conditions in recent laser based experiments, where the pulse duration is few nanoseconds.
The study demonstrated that FL and ANN can provide reasonable estimates for the breakdown duration with few variables.
Tests on the technical gypsum-charcoal samples using 355 nm with pulse duration of few ns [5, 6, 11, 21] resulted into relatively faded/bleached surfaces.
