Sphericity, volume and size was subsequently calculated according to the methods proposed by Kelm et al. and Vinci et al. The sphericity of each structure was expressed calculating the Shape Factor:.
Chi-square test was used to evaluate the presence of statistically significant heterogeneity across studies, whose variance proportion attributable to between studies heterogeneity was expressed calculating the I statistic.
Based on the genes present on the GeneChip, Onto-Express calculated the expected number of occurrences of each functional category in each cluster.
Relative expression profiles of differentially expressed transcripts calculated in edgeR.
Because CD161 and CD62L are inversely expressed (Figure 1C), we calculated the ratio of these values.
(68) where the coefficients can be expressed and calculated explicitly.
The actual width of the rail can be expressed and calculated by the pixel number of the rail image.
Cytotoxicity was expressed and calculated as previously described.
Renal function was expressed as calculated glomerular filtration rate (GFR)/ 1.73 m body surface [ 23, 24].
The water retention function was expressed by calculating the hydric significance (HS) indicator.
The microbial results were expressed by calculating the ratios of decimal logarithmic value of each flora (bacteria and yeasts).
