RPHM21 expected weight was calculated from its amino acid sequence (http://www.bioinformatics.org/sms/prot_mw.html, last accessed February 10 , 2014.
The ratio of the subjects' observed weight to the standard or expected weight was calculated using standard weights obtained from a chart of desirable weights (listed by age, height, and sex) used by the Life Insurance Corporation of India Ltd. (a Government of India enterprise).
Other studies have probed this association with greater sophistication, taking into account gestational age, maternal height, and other factors to estimate the expected birth weight; the results show that higher than expected birth weight is associated with increased risk of childhood ALL, even among children who do not have high birth weight [ 4, 5].
Therefore, the expected battery weight is about 90 kg which is quite satisfactory for an urban EV.
Values of expected weight for population were based on previous reports [ 16].
Based on self-reported energy intake, the percent of expected weight loss achieved was higher with DAIRY/CA (82.1±19.4%) than CONTROL (32.2±7.7%)(P=0.03).
Although variability based on study design and patient characteristics was expected, weight reduction observed in this study with EQW was on the lower end of the range (−2.0 to −3.7 kg) observed in previous DURATION studies (6, 7, 10, 17).
However, since the prevalence of overweight and obesity is comparable to national estimates of self-reported data, we do not expect weight to be very much under-reported.
The ELP was bioproduced, purified and its purity and expected molecular weight were assessed.
PCR products were run on 1% agarose gels, and products of the expected molecular weight were cleaned with either a Millipore PCR96 cleanup kit (Montáge™) or ExosapIT (USB Corp).
