The Secret Service investigates an average of 10 threats against Mr. Obama each day, roughly the same number as during George W. Bush's administration, said Ronald Kessler, author of "In the President's Secret Service," a book about the agency.
The Secret Service investigates an average of 3,000 threats to the president each year.
The locations of high stress gradients are investigated using an average stress criterion.
A total of 46 populations were investigated, with an average of 3·4 populations per taxon.
The density of O-glycosylation has been previously investigated and an average of 3.8 of the five potential sites of O-glycosylation of each tandem repeat was glycosylated (Sewell et al, 2006).
To determine the effects of specific HLA enrichment on prediction accuracy, we investigated a sample with an average coverage depth of ∼4100× on HLA-I loci, from which a decreasing number of reads were randomly extracted, simulating decreasing coverage depth.
A large study investigated an immunochemical FOBT in >20 000 average-risk subjects and showed a sensitivity of 31 and 16% for left- and right-sided advanced neoplasia, respectively, at a specificity of 95% (Morikawa et al, 2005).
Furthermore, Bianchini and colleagues [ 19] investigated a mitotic kinase score (average expression of 12 kinases) and an estrogen-related score (four genes) and observed that women who recurred late (after 5 years) had highly proliferative and high estrogen-sensitive tumors.
The studies mainly investigated women with an average age of 53 (range: 40-66 years) [ 11- 18].
