We therefore assumed the abundances of host psbA mRNAs and the proportions of functional, damaged and empty PSII subunits were in steady state prior to infection, and set equations (5), (6) and (9) equal to 0. This imposed relationships between parameters and initial conditions of some variables (Table 1), reducing the number of free parameters.
However, these heuristics either impose relationships among the link metrics to reduce the complexity of the problem which may limit the general applicability of the heuristic, or are too costly in terms of execution time to be applicable to large networks.
Only area-under-the-curve measures (like HGI) can potentially take into consideration the duration of these glycemic deviations under the assumption that the imposed (linear) relationship between the measurements approaches the real blood glucose dynamics.
However, despite this imposed kinematic relationship, the phase plot between the cumulative spike count of the SC cell and the actual eye displacement was not invariant to the temporal changes in the SC burst.
For partial Mayo score, a 1-point change corresponded to a mean change of: 0.31 points (P < 0.0001; patient preference assessment), 0.34 points (P < 0.0001; patient satisfaction assessment), and 0.32 points (P < 0.0001; patient willingness assessment) if a model with imposed linear relationship between the IBD PRTI item score and the partial Mayo score was used.
For the total Mayo score, a 1-point change corresponded to a mean change in Patient Preference Assessment of 0.24 points (P < 0.0001), 0.26 points in Patient Satisfaction Assessment (P < 0.0001) and 0.24 points in Patient Willingness Assessment (P < 0.0001) if a model with imposed linear relationship between IBD PRTI item score and the total Mayo score is used.
Those differences were: 1.2 points (P < 0.0001; Patient Preference Assessment), 1.4 points (P <0.0001; Patient Satisfaction Assessment), and 1.2 points (P < 0.0001; Patient Willingness Assessment) if a model with imposed linear relationship between IBD PRTI item score and Mayo endoscopy score was used.
In the first step, triangle mesh structure is reconstructed as a continuous manifold surface by imposing explicit relationship among the discrete data points.
However, as the nurse so perceptively noted that afternoon, what was more difficult for her to bear this time was not the loss but the constraint imposed on the relationship afterward.
21 In the random intercept-slope model, time was used as a continuous predictor, with a linear relationship imposed between outcome and time.
