As noted in other populations, the percentage of ICD-9-CM-based conditions considered preventable or avoidable varied little as utilization increased except for the most extreme utilizers.
We add two dichotomic variables to isolate the cases of extreme under-utilization (DummyUNDER = 1 if OBTB < 0.65, 0 otherwise) and over-utilization (DummyOVER = 1 if OBTB > 0.89, 0 otherwise) of assets and general costs.
During extreme conditions, glycogen utilization can preserve neuronal function, even though its rate is much lower than that of glucose contained in tissue or of glucose delivered by blood to grey or white matter.
We check the evaluation of extreme cases of over-utilization with DummyOVER, which is negatively related to ERM (coeff. = −0.003, p-value = 0.00), consequently probably excluding the inadequacy of infrastructures as one probable reason of inefficiency.
With mechanisms for adapting to environmental extremes and for the utilization of their trophic niche, the ability of microorganisms to produce extracellular enzymes is of great survival value [ 16].
Illustrating highly flexible load by means of electric vehicle charging, we show that these desynchronized rate can mitigate the occurrence of extreme load spikes, improve the utilization of renewable generation and in summary create significant system cost savings.
Industrial gasifiers and combustors are assumed to reach particle heating rates of 105⿿106 °C/s and understanding how particles behave in these extreme conditions can improve the utilization of solid fuels in these reactors and in downstream applications.
However, utilization of single extreme values may lead to misleading results when testing these kinds of hypotheses [ 108, 109].
It has been shown previously and also by us that medicines utilization pattern in extreme prematurity is different from that near or at term [ 9, 29, 39, 40].
Genomic information suggests that multiple horizontal gene transfers conferred the adaptation of C. subterraneus subspecies to extreme niches throughout the carbon monoxide utilization and hydrogen production.
