This fact makes this mode a sensitive indicator of variations in the concentration x.
Heterogeneity in tumour imaging is hypothesised to be a potentially important indicator of variations in the underlying biology such as differences in structural features, cellular density, metabolism, growth rate, receptor populations, vascularisation, hypoxia, impaired lymphatics or the varying effects on these that therapy may induce throughout the lesion [12 19].
The close association of prevalence with elevation and the spatial relationship of prevalence to geographical features that were likely to provide mosquito breeding sites, led us to conclude that in Dedza, prevalence was an indicator of variation in levels of transmission during the wet season.
The MPV represents the average size of the platelets, and PDW is an indicator of variation in the size of the platelets.
As a relative indicator of variation, the average number of mismatches for the mapped reads was calculated from the NM flag in the bwa-mem output.
The alterations of metabolites in biofluids are indicators of variations in physiology or pathology.
We also assessed potential modification by state, region, and population density, as proxy indicators of variation in PM2.5 composition.
48 52 In addition, while the MD index is broad and multidimensional, some variables included in this index may not be sensitive indicators of variation in deprivation for immigrants.
However, few studies have tested for statistical differences in the factors that influence the exposure of mammals to WNV, which thus would establish their usefulness as indicators of variation in WNV transmission.
We also included the local standard deviation of SRTM as an additional input layer, to capture the local variation of topography as an indicator of the variations of canopy structure within a pixel [15, 46].
This study also compares the merits and drawbacks of the classical rating curve (C = aQb) with those of an improved rating curve approach (IRCA: C = aQb + a1δS) in which the correction term is an indicator of the variations in sediment storage, thus relating it to flow dynamics.
