This analysis has been made by defining a local parameter, the CRM, column-based recovery measurement, and a global parameter, the GRM(H), global recovery measurement.
However, since starts from 1, an "overstepping" should be made, by defining arbitrarily in such a way so that (3.1) is consistent.
Relative Map1lc3a mRNA quantifications were made by defining ΔCT (ΔCT = CT β-actin CT LC3 and CT hprt1–CT LC3 where CT is "Cycle Threshold") and ΔΔCT (ΔΔCT = ΔCT sample-ΔCT of one control mouse per plate) using StepOne software (Applied Biosystems).
Allowance for left truncation can be made by defining the set of individuals 'at risk' (of death, recurrence, etc) at a given time t past diagnosis to only include individuals that have not had an event nor been censored before time t and who are under active follow-up at time t (Brookmeyer, 2005).
Because of the disparities among the transcriptional profiles of various tissues, it became obvious that direct cross comparisons of the effects of treatment among different tissues would not be informative; rather indirect comparisons could be made by defining the effects of various treatments in each tissue and subsequently comparing different tissues.
One limitation of our study was the exact ventral delineation of the JF, which had to be made by defined lines rather than by natural landmarks.
After an estimation of the load demand within rural context, a subjective comparison was made by defining three sets of indicators: technical, regulatory, and socio-environmental indicators.
As shown in the Fig. 1, the vertical (in the growth direction) electrical contacts were made by defining circular mesas with 500 μm diameter and by etching of the n-InGaAs and n-GaAs buffers down to n + -layer in a solution of C6H8O7:H2O:H2O2 (5:5:1) at 20 °C.
Does the distinction which, for example, Google continues to make by defining itself a "technology company," as distinct from a "content company," still make sense?
This was made possible by defining the first successful culture conditions for ex vivo maintenance of rHpScs consisting of a substratum of hyaluronans and Kubota's medium (KM), a serum-free medium designed for endodermal stem/progenitor cells.
