For each lesion, iodine uptake (IU) and HA of iodine maps including maximum HU value (max), mean HU value (mean) and standard deviation (STD) was calculated.
All involved parameters defining the fatigue loading scheme, including maximum stress amplitude, mean stress amplitude and number of cycles are treated as random variables resembling real conditions of pipes in the operational field.
In each province of the study areas, meteorological stations recorded daily weather data, including maximum, minimum and mean temperatures, relative humidity, and wind speed (Table 1).
The following data will be extracted from each included study: patients' demographic characteristics, including maximum, minimum and mean age; inclusion and exclusion criteria; type, frequency and treatment course of acupuncture therapy; and all outcomes.
Multiple studies have also implicated temperature (including maximum, minimum, and mean temperatures) as being an important explanatory variable for both sandfly and disease distribution (Thomson et al., 1999; Gebre-Michael et al., 2004; Bhunia et al., 2010; Chamaille et al., 2010; Fischer et al., 2010; Galvez et al., 2011; Fernandez et al., 2012; Branco et al., 2013).
Measurement analysis includes maximum mean velocity reduction, maximum Reynolds stress reduction, turbulence intensity profile, turbulent velocity power spectrum, and Reynolds stress structure in the wake region of the windscreen.
Acute study end points included maximum and mean force of sheath insertion and removal, saline flow rate and subjective urothelial damage following sheath insertion/inflation.
DVH parameters subjected to analysis included maximum and mean dose to the small bowel loops, V30-50 rando and volume of this organ.
DVH parameters subjected to analysis included maximum and mean dose, the volume of these organs receiving more than 30, 40, and 50 Gy V30-500 volume) and the volume of V30-50 totaltal volume V30-500 ratio).
These indices were used to describe the relationships between climate and health in Cuba (Ortíz Bultó et al. 2000): IB t,1, c describes intermonthly and interseasonal variation; it includes maximum and minimum mean temperature, precipitation, atmospheric pressure, vapor pressure, and relative humidity.
