The safety of the formulations was tested by studying their effects on mucociliary transport rate (MTR) in a frog palate model and by measuring injury markers in rat bronchoalveolar fluid.
This demonstrates that the CCI model and qRT-PCR technique used here are feasible methods for measuring injury induced alterations in mRNA levels.
In 2007, guidelines for the conduct of follow-up studies measuring injury-related disability were published [ 1].
Untangling the effect of comorbidity has been identified as an important challenge for measuring injury-related disability [ 7, 8].
11 Thus, different measuring units for measuring injury rates will target different slices of the spectrum of injuries and provide different results.
We examined critically methodological approaches in measuring injury incident rates including data sources, description of the injury pyramid, matching numerator and denominator populations as well as the relationship between injury and socioeconomic status.
The proposals include using crash-test dummies that, for the first time in government tests, would be equipped to measure injuries to the head, the most vulnerable part of the body in side-impact collisions.
Also, Brazilians do not run as far over the course of a match, but spend more time sprinting.Meanwhile, Chris McLellan of Bond University, in Australia, has used GPS data to measure injuries sustained by professional rugby league players.
The understanding of the time course of expression of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarker levels following severe TBI is an important step toward using these biomarkers to measure injury severity and/or early response to therapeutic interventions.
Using Fluo-4, we measured injury-triggered cytosolic Ca2+ dynamics and found no difference in the initiation and amplitude of the injury-triggered cytosolic Ca2+ increase between the control and dysferlinopathic cells.
