Regarding the clinical heterogeneity, the patient data had a good homogeneity due to the strict eligibility criteria and the fact that the methods of measuring the graft collapse were the same.
Second, we did not also measure IVC collapse or stroke-volume variation, both measures of volume responsiveness similar in quality to our IJV distensibility and PPV measures, respectively.
To measure the collapse of electrochemical gradient across the mitochondrial membrane, we stained the cells with JC-1 dye that aggregates into healthy mitochondria and fluoresces red.
In this paper, the distributed Brillouin optical fiber sensor was proposed to measure the sinkhole collapse strain, a long-term monitoring model test for sinkhole collapse was conducted which can provide the distributed collapse time-series strain.
Our values of RVP in the glaucoma group without FS (POAG/FS-) were in line with those of Jonas et al. who measured the diastolic collapse pressure of the central retinal vein in their glaucoma group to be 26.1 (SD 26.4) relative units [ 19].
The measured collapse stress is almost insensitive to the specimen sizes, while the crushing stress increases with the cell numbers and finally converges to a stable plateau for the specimens beyond 15 × 15 cells.
This study was designed to externally validate this and to access the accuracy of the ultrasound measured inspiratory IVC collapse and physician gestalt to predict significant dehydration in children in the emergency department.
The decreases in neck-shaft angle present on AP view at the last follow-up, when compared with the initial postoperative radiograph, were measured as varus collapse [ 6].
Similarly, contact area in the mid-foot (defined as the region from the distal plantar heel to the tarso-metatarsal junction) was measured to assess collapse of the medial longitudinal arch which is associated with pes planovalgus [ 12].
For example, if the first one is measured and collapses into the up state, the second one will instantly collapse into the down state, even if it's light-years away.
