The strong association between villous atrophy and grossly visible intestinal flaccidity indicates that decreased mucosal thickness is reflected grossly as a thin-walled, atonic intestine.
With respect to the model and how agent's state parameters are managed, this assumption means that either interests in topics are simply assumed as fixed quantities (a grossly unrealistic assumption) or when the interest associated to a certain topic increases, some other interests associated to all other topics should decrease.
Cell viability did not decrease below 90%% of the control level after 48 h, as determined by the MTT assay, indicating that the tested concentrations of Oligonol did not grossly affect cell growth and viability (Fig. 1a).
Virus shedding was grossly reduced after vaccination, thereby decreasing risk for further virus transmission to other avian species as well as to humans.
Neuropilin-1 prominently co-localized with both PDGFRs within MSC networks assembled in Matrigel™ and in the chorioallantoic membrane vasculature microenvironment, and its knockdown grossly disrupted network assembly and decreased PDGFR signalling.
Ligation was found to induce grossly visible local mesenteric oedema and decreased intestinal wall tonus.
Changes in epithelial morphology and proliferation may result in decreased autofluorescence that is grossly detectable with autofluorescence bronchoscopy [ 4].
While patients with microscopically negative and positive margins had 5-year OS of 88.1% and 75.0%, respectively, patients with grossly positive margins had a significantly decreased 5-year OS of 44.0%.
In summary, although Sulf2−/− adults had decreased body weight, they appeared grossly, histologically, and behaviorally normal.
Strikingly, however, wild-type animals fed a high-galactose diet phenocopied many dGALT-mutant phenotypes, displaying slowed coordinated movement and grossly overelaborated NMJs with supernumerary boutons over decreased interbouton distances.
