For decades, most regional planning in the Pacific has used countries as a highest-level divisor, thereby ensuring that much research into the characteristics of particular islands and island types to extraneous change would be duplicated repeated for nations sharing similar island types.
We reported previously [ 5] on the use of a rpsL-tet(A) positive/negative-selection cassette (RT-cassette) [ 11] in a two-step counter-selection recombineering approach that enables the seamless creation of fosmid-based reporters devoid of undesired, extraneous sequence changes.
In essence, the practice of sample matching by data-derived indices constitutes a higher standard for a "true positive", requiring that its main effect (for psychiatric disorders) to rise above its potential colinearity with the major extraneous covariates (changes due to agonal stress).
The Moodstocks technology relies on extracting a specific signature for each image and then matches the signatures despite extraneous variables like lighting changes, etc.
Given the concomitant changes in extraneous variables such as medication use and lifestyle risk factors that occurred around the interventions, it is difficult to ascertain which specific aspects of the intervention led to the improvements in blood pressure seen within these reviews and included studies.
The absence of a control group was not considered a significant threat to the internal validity of the experiment because the likelihood that extraneous factors account for the change was small[ 5].
He felt that Logan had been most affected by the tone change, robbed of his darker aspects and changed into an "increasingly extraneous character".
As a further complication, many of the age-related changes observed may be extraneous to the development of functional defects.
Thus, while genetically encoded properties might 'lock' lineages into particular circuit states (central complex or antennal lobe) it is their 'soft' properties (developmental plasticity) that allow circuits to functionally incorporate changes as dramatic as extraneous neurons.
