An example result of shrinkage stress calculation are given in Fig. 8 using input parameters extracted from Baluch et al. (2002).
An example of tumor shrinkage observed on computed tomography (CT) scans with this regimen in a patient with rapidly progressive melanoma is provided in Figure 1A.
It is worth mentioning in this context that Prochlorococcus is the first documented example of genome shrinkage along with A+T enrichment in a free-living organism [ 25].
The marine cyanobacterium Prochlorococcus marinus, having multiple ecotypes of distinct genotypic/phenotypic traits and being the first documented example of genome shrinkage in free-living organisms, offers an ideal system for studying niche-driven molecular micro-diversity in closely related microbes.
For example, coal ash 1 showed maximum rate of shrinkage 0.8%/°C, the coal ash 6 exhibited the maximum rate of shrinkage as 0.6%/°C among the 'fast sintering' coal ashes.
An example of the method is a measurement of shrinkage cracking on ring specimen where restraint is provided by inner steel ring.
Nelder and Mead (1965) modified Spendley´s model adding four operations to the polyhedron: reflection, contraction, expansion and shrinkage, an example of these operations is shown on Fig. 3.
Other cities, such as Leipzig and Youngstown, Ohio, are held up as examples of cities accepting shrinkage and finding better use for land than empty houses.
The treated cells exhibited characteristic apoptotic changes for example cell shrinkage, nuclear condensation, and formation of round apoptotic bodies which appeared as round spherical beads.
The few studies that have attempted to correlate CT volumes with pathologic specimens have been biased, for example, by the shrinkage of pathologic specimens and the problem of deflation of excised lung.
