The method detects the edges in the neighborhood of the blob border and evaluates the portion of the contour that is surrounded by edges.
To evaluate the portion of the mRNA expression knocked down we have carried out a real-time PCR assay of PC3 cells transfected and untransfected with KCNMA1 probes 6 and 7, before and after selenium treatment.
To evaluate the portion of cells engaged in DNA processing at exposure, the effects on cell cycle distribution of each drug alone and combined were assessed in both the HCT-8 and HCT-116 cell lines.
This strategy is based on appending reversed, randomized or shuffled sequences to the original ('target') database before performing the search and then using these artificial ('decoy') sequences to evaluate the portion of false positive among all positive identifications.
To evaluate the portion of genomes corresponding to fragmented and nested LTR-RTs that are not detected by structure-based methods (LTRharvest), the genomic sequence of each species was split into small fragments of 1 kb using splitter software from EMBOSS package (http://emboss.bioinformatics.nl/cgi-bin/emboss/help/splitter, last accessed April 10 , 2013.
Perfusion contributions were then scored by evaluating the head portion of the caudate nucleus, the entire lentiform nucleus, and entire thalamus.
2) Sensitivity analysis repeatedly evaluates the contribution portion of every failed component to risk, whereas the reliability tracing method conducts only a one-time estimation to obtain the risk sharing indices and further improve the computational efficiency.
Although CT is inferior to ultrasound in depicting mucosal irregularity, mural thickening, and cholelithiasis, it is superior for evaluating the thickness of portions of the gallbladder wall that are obscured by gallstones or mural calcification on ultrasound.
To determine the portion of the main miRNA expression in the total small RNA sequencing data, we selected the top 10 expressed miRNAs from the pooled read set of 6 young mouse samples and evaluated the relative portion of the reads for those 10 most abundant miRNAs and other small portioned reads in the pooled young and aged mouse read sets.
The phase I portion of the clinical trial is completed, and the phase II portion evaluating the efficacy of combined imatinib plus chemotherapy is currently successfully enrolling.
