"We find it particularly intriguing that siblings continue to engage in such a high degree of social comparison even well into their middle years".
Having considerable high degree of fineness in comparison to cement, these materials may be utilized as filler for production of self compacting concretes (SCCs).
The greater design freedom available makes possible the construction of wavelets with a high degree of smoothness, in comparison with orthonormal wavelet bases.
Sequence comparison tools are commonly used to determine the similarities between proteins with a high degree of similarity, whereas structure comparison methods are essentially utilized to highlight the evolutionary relationships among proteins.
However, with time, improved (often commercial) diagnostics became available to detect some of these pathogens with a high degree of standardization, thus enabling comparisons of etiology across geographic sites and over time.
Although regulatory authorities will always prefer a high degree of certainty for these comparisons, the requirement for a specific threshold of "confidence" (typically 95%) may result in sub-optimal outcomes in situations where a treatment decision cannot be deferred [ 41, 42].
Symptoms were classified using a sensitivity analysis, considering the patients' report as point of comparison: >0.75, high degree of agreement beyond chance; 0.40 to 0.75, fair agreement beyond chance and <0.40, low degree of agreement.
Electroless nickel phosphorus (ENP) alloy coatings deposited on steel surfaces provide a high degree of protection against corrosion in comparison to the bare steel exposed in chloride-contaminated simulated concrete pore solution (SPS).
However, wing area and span correlate with body mass when compared across species [110], which means larger bird species do tend to flap more slowly than smaller taxa, but only when there is a high degree of geometric similarity between the comparison taxa (even then, the relationship is most applicable for continuous, steady state flapping).
We have thus chosen to analyze 14 loci representing more recent insertions (designated by blue numbers in fig. 4), as judged by their high degree of sequence similarity in pairwise comparisons, and 10 loci that probably represent older insertions, as judged by the same criterion (designated by red numbers in fig. 4).
