A number of studies state that eccentric contraction has advantages over concentric contraction [ 4- 6], such as the greater synthesis of myofibrillar proteins and hypertrophy [ 3], greater torque and lesser energy expenditure [ 4].
Originally developed as an anti-depressant, sibutramine has effects on energy intake and to a lesser extent on energy expenditure.
Due to a lesser requirement for capital expenditure on equipment, the MspJI digestion method would become further cost-competitive when sample number is less than 100,000 [ 22, 23].
Analyses (not shown) suggested that it was the inclusion of parity and, to a lesser extent, national public expenditure on health care which most attenuated the variations in the risk of maternal mortality between those with no and higher levels of maternal education.
To a lesser extent, total and non-durables expenditure face this issue as well.
The remaining 70% of outpatient care is provided by WM or TCM clinicians in the private sector, financed either by out of pocket household expenditure, or to a lesser extent, by private insurance schemes.
To a lesser extent, this may be a potential issue for total and non-durable expenditure as well.
Other types of health care expenditures were typically financed through savings and loans, and to a lesser extent by selling assets and cutting/delaying payments.
Moreover, protein expenditure, as assessed by urinary nitrogen, appeared to be under-reported to a lesser extent than total energy [ 31*], making it plausible that percentage energy from fat is also substantially under-reported by obese women.
– Patients will typically start regain weight during the second year of therapy, though to a lesser degree than patients on placebo, fact that is believed to be related to decreased body energy expenditure after weight loss.
