First, there is a lack of detailed qualitative research, based on inductive research methods, and a paucity of quantitative research, using valid, reliable, and responsive instruments to measure patient-reported outcomes in cosmetic and reconstructive breast surgery [ 8].
However, the paucity of efficient transformation methods and effective molecular tools for gene inactivation severely limits directly functional identification in L. bulgaricus CAUH1.
Inherent difficulties include evidence gaps in available biomarker data, a paucity of robust assay methods, and the design of appropriate studies within the constraints of feasible trial operations, and finite resources.
Detecting interactions between genes associated with T2DM has thus far been very challenging, due to a paucity of powerful statistical methods and study datasets with adequate sample sizes [65].
The crumbling campus and paucity of dormitories doomed any effort to recruit students nationally.
Although numerous investigations have compared gene expression microarray platforms, preprocessing methods and batch correction algorithms using constructed spike-in or dilution datasets, there remains a paucity of studies examining the properties of microarray data using diverse biological samples.
Given the relative paucity of frequentist models, we do not describe the characteristics of their methods and reporting in this paper but they can be found elsewhere.
However, there remains a paucity of EIA audit research that focuses on the evaluation of specific predictive methods, and to date advances in the development of audit methodologies have been limited.
To date there is a paucity of data on actual falls, and the literature is dependent on self-report methods and there is no gold standard to provide criterion validity.
The need to improve methods and interpretation of host specificity tests for arthropod natural enemies has been clearly identified, yet there remains a paucity of empirical evidence upon which to base recommendations.
