Focusing on the question of whether the left inferior frontal gyrus, especially BA 44, 45 and 47, plays an essential role in syntactic processing, this combination of methods allows us to determine not only which brain regions and networks are active during syntactic analysis but also whether their engagement is essential for preserved function.
In the same spirit, we may derive the multipath preserving functions for the other two walls in Figure 1b as f 2 ( x B ) = 1 0 ≤ x B ≤ D 1, (5) f 3 ( y C ) = 1 D y + y r ≤ y C ≤ D 2 + D y + y r, (6).
In addition, fluctuating environments could lead to the maintenance of generalist phenotypes by selecting for an integrated genetic architecture, preserving functions and genes that are only intermittently advantageous (Li and Wilke 2004).
This study also emphasizes the relationship between A1C and C-peptide but provides no insight as to whether better glucose control results in preserved function or whether preserved function allows for better A1C.
Observations of stabilization in performance on tasks of executive, attentional, visuospatial, and visuoconstructive functions [ 78- 80] across time and treatment also suggest that ChEIs may selectively preserve function for these specific cognitive domains.
One participant said, "there are not very many areas that we can improve a lot, a dementia diagnosis will take its course", but another noted, "we have to maintain and preserve function for as long as possible".
The main finding of this study is that lithium-treated patients homozygous for the C allele have better preserved function of renal concentrating ability, compared to the remaining genotypes of this polymorphism, as reflected in higher urinary specific gravity in such patients.
The G-box itself is a CNS-enriched motif that seems to have a requirement for near-perfect sequence conservation to preserve function, and is especially intolerant to changes in the 5′ACGTG core.
The measures for preserving ovarian function after hysterectomy are always important.
At the University of Tennessee in Memphis, we have evolved strategies for the use of sirolimus in kidney transplant recipients; which utilize the drug as a primary immunosuppressant and exploit its potential for preserving renal function.
