For monkeys, to evaluate weakness of the forelimb muscles on the AAV-injected side (the dominant-hand side), we performed the 'apple test'.
For rats, to evaluate weakness of the forelimb muscles, we measured grip strength using a special device (Muromachi Kiki) as previously described (Anderson, 2005).
Clinical studies such as that of De Jonghe and colleagues [ 61] used the Medical Research Council scale to clinically evaluate weakness when the patients were awake and found severe weakness in 25% of patients.
To evaluate weakness in critically ill patients, clinicians and researchers use the Medical Research Council (MRC) sum score, which is the average MRC strength score combined for 12 specified muscle groups [ 66].
The study evaluates potential weaknesses and possible improvements for integral type small modular pressurized water reactor designs.
Hackers may be motivated by a multitude of reasons, such as profit, protest, information gathering, challenge, recreation, or to evaluate system weaknesses to assist in formulating defences against potential hackers (Bachmann 2010; Conteh and Royer 2016).
The paper then evaluates principal weaknesses in these regional models and argues the need for re-conceptualizing the cultural, political and economic approach to the new information space of the Internet.
Overall, each hospital was assigned a maximum of nine composite measures to evaluate its weaknesses, six based on a comparison of its results from the HELIOS indicator set with six different reference values, one based on PSI and two based on Disease Stages.
Finally, the authors used the Medical Research Council scale to evaluate muscle weakness at 28 days, which may be too brief to recognize muscle weakness especially among patients who require prolonged mechanical ventilation.
The PSALM functionality and usability is demonstrated through three case studies of analyzing, comparing and evaluating strengths and weaknesses of different patent portfolios.
