Purpose: To evaluate the thickness of corneal flaps created by the Summit Krumeich-Barraquer microkeratome (SKBM) (Alcon Surgical) and identify factors that may influence flap thickness.
This indicates a need for further study with careful attention to factors that may influence cortical thickness in MDD, such as age of disorder onset and past trauma and neglect.
Thus, sex and BMI, factors that may influence subcutaneous fat thickness and IM injection success, were equal in the two study groups.
In the process of electrospinning, the mat with increased thickness may influence the electric field and has effect on fiber diameter and pore size.
Stent design, metal alloy composition, and strut thickness may influence late lumen loss and clinical outcomes after bare metal stent deployment; however, their impact on outcomes after drug-eluting stent deployment is unknown.
Even in normal subjects, there are many factors including age, refractive error, ethnicity, axial length, and optic disc size may influence to the RNFL thickness [ 19- 28].
Glucose intolerance may influence left ventricular mass and wall thickness, worsen atherosclerosis, increase inflammation, interfere with nitric oxide metabolism, and worsen endothelial apoptosis and may simply be a marker of insulin resistance rather than directly causing adverse outcome.
For example the thickness of the skin, that may influence the mean values, is not documented in most of the studies [ 25].
Especially, the nail profile and thickness of the fingertip fatty tissue may influence the transfer function between the skin deformation at the pad and radial side of the finger.
During LV mapping, multiple factors in addition to CF may influence unipolar and bipolar signal amplitudes, such as myocardial thickness, myocardial surface (e.g. papillary muscle, pouch, smooth surface), myocardial scar, and catheter position (parallel vs. perpendicular).
