Far from a "reduction", Kurtág's fragments are about musical and, above all, expressive intensification: maximising the effect and impact of every note, every gesture.
The gate achieves the lowest overall cost among the most cost-efficient designs presented so far, with a reduction of 24%.
Russian oil executives have offered to cut back daily exports by 50,000 barrels, up from a previous pledge of 30,000 barrels, but far below a reduction of 500,000 barrels a day that the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries is asking of non-OPEC producers.
Antioxidant treatment prevents impaired vasorelaxation by methylglyoxal The results so far suggest a reduction of NO bioavailability by methylglyoxal via induction of ROS formation.
How far would a reduction of 1.3 mmHg in population systolic BP – as shown in our study – impact on stroke rates?
The four randomised controlled trials available so far suggest a reduction of total colorectal cancer incidence and mortality by approximately 20-30% in intention to screen analysis and 30-45% in per protocol analyses, with substantially stronger reductions for distal colorectal cancer and no or at best modest reductions for cancer of the proximal colon.

Preliminary results from a phase IIa trial with human IgG1κ anti-IFNα antibody, in 87 SLE patients, showed so far a 40% reduction in IFN type I-induced gene expression but no clinical effect compared with placebo (abstract; Merrill J et al. a ).
The results (confirmed also by numerical simulations) demonstrate a remarkable efficiency in the far field, with a reduction up to 15 dB with respect to the absence of the ANC system.
