5) There should be support for and maintenance of evidence-based systems of data collection and management to better inform policy, strategic planning and allow for strengthened monitoring and evaluation.
Of the 21 examples reported that invoke heterozygote advantage as an explanation for the maintenance of polymorphism, compelling evidence for heterozygote advantage is lacking in nearly every instance (Table S1).
Consistent with this body of evidence, maintenance of weight and waist circumference loss (even at modest levels) can decrease chronic disease risk.
From the time-point April-June 2008 a further increase in the number of patients being initiated onto methadone maintenance is evidence of a second prison based GPsi receiving the core competencies to work with substance misuse and the practice of methadone induction therefore becoming normalised in the prison healthcare department.
Although theoretical studies stress the importance of long-term disadvantages of asexuality for the maintenance of sex, contemporary empirical evidence for such processes is ambiguous (see the Introduction and section 2).
BDNF is a protein thought to be important for the maintenance of striatal neurons, and evidence has emerged in model systems that huntingtin may play a part in regulating BDNF expression [ 17].
In the marine environment and elsewhere, a growing body of evidence relates the maintenance of healthy, natural biodiversity to provision of a broad spectrum of ecosystem services, including those that humans rely upon and value, such as food, medicines, recreation, climate modulation, and protection from extreme weather [2], [3].
Recently, several lines of evidence indicate that maintenance of fragile site stability can be achieved also outside the S-phase and even after the G2-phase by pathways acting in mitosis [ 56– 58].
Confocal microscopy showed associated LipidTOX™ Deep Red neutral lipid staining in an FLPdlLGA fibre adipocyte graft after 56 days, critical evidence demonstrating maintenance of the adipocyte phenotype in the subcutaneous graft.
There was strong evidence for maintenance of good soil structure within the no tillage treatment (Nn) which had higher proportions of the 8.000 2.000 mm aggregates (45%) compared to Mm (40%) and Ii (35%).
Given the wide range of functions that it modulates, one might expect the depletion of 5-HT to have serious consequences for development and maintenance of viability: in fact some evidence exists that peripheral serotonin is important for proper embryonic development [8].
