In the benchmark of a conservation project started in 2008, a series of works were carried out in Ariadne's house: microclimate monitoring, electromagnetic radiation measurements, study of materials, and photographic report.
The objectives of the Following Rehabilitation, Economics and Everyday-Dialysis Outcome Measurements Study are to evaluate outcomes of DHD (6 times/wk) with the NxStage System One (NxStage Medical Inc, Lawrence, MA) device.
For microenvironmental measurements, study participants are selected in order to represent typical behaviours in different microenvironments.
In order to obtain interpretable measurements, study participants have to fill in a time-activity diary.
To enhance the quality of outcome measurements, study protocol meetings were held throughout the study.
For weight and height measurements, study subjects removed their shoes and jackets and wore light clothing.
For microenvironmental measurements, study participants should be selected in order to represent typical behaviours in different microenvironments.
We also conducted analyses stratified by sex, study location, number of cases and participants, duration of follow-up, repeated egg consumption measurements, study quality, and whether diet variables or cholesterol levels were controlled for in models.
The results of Ott's sign differed significantly between the two collectives (p = 0.0018), but showed a weak correlation with the ultrasound topometric measurements (study group flexion/extension: r = 0.36/0.43, control group flexion/extension: r = 0.29/0.26).
The key finding of our repeated measurements study in a panel of healthy adults is that an acute narrowing of retinal arterial vessels, a marker for arteriolar damage, was associated with particulate matter air pollution.
However, there is a lack of consistency across studies in methodology concerning maternal glucose concentration measurements, study populations, as well as adjustment for potential confounding variables, which makes it difficult to compare results.
