Obese-years was calculated at each examination as the defined level of obesity (in 'obese units') multiplied by the defined duration of obesity (in years).
In the virtual human controller, the behavior was executed during the defined duration of each action.
Released HSV-2 survives in the genital tract for a defined duration (1/ c), during which time it can transfer from neurons and infect local epithelial cells.
If the couple had a previous pregnancy that had not resulted in a live birth, we defined duration of subfertility as the time from the first day of the pregnancy to the time of start of treatment.
There is no defined duration for the treatment.
Significant effects of vacuum level, quarter position and time of milking on milk yield and milking duration in the defined milk removal phases were shown.
These genes included MRH2 (morphogenesis of root hair 2), which is likely involved in polarized growth of root hairs in Arabidopsis[ 44], REF6 (relative of early flowering 6), which plays divergent roles in the regulation of Arabidopsis flowering [ 45], and SWP (STRUWWE LPETER), which plays an important role in defining the duration of cell proliferation [ 46].
At the chronological level of Plotinus and probably also of the Antioch mosaic the meaning of aion was widely stabilised: in effect, by this term was meant, on the one hand, eternity as opposed to the durative aspects of temporality, and on the other, as perhaps was the case of the mosaic in question, eternity defined in the duration of time, past, present and future.
We will estimate the intervention effect in sub-groups defined by duration of diabetes (above or below median duration), current management (oral hypoglycaemic dugs or dietary management only), health status at baseline (above or below median EQ-5D score) and co-morbidity (presence or absence of diabetes related complications).
Secondary outcome measures include health service costs, well-being, and the intervention effect in sub-groups defined by duration of diabetes, current management, health status at baseline and co-morbidity.
Kaplan Meier curves and log-rank tests were used to identify differences in overall survival, defined as duration of survival after initial resection of pancreatic carcinoma.
