The number of nuclei in spores has been previously estimated by several methods with widely divergent results [ 16].
It is worth emphasising however, that it is not wholly surprising that each method comes up with divergent findings since each asked different, but related questions, and both are based on fundamentally different theoretical paradigms.
So far, the data available on the expression of CCR5 in psoriatic skin in humans are not univocal (varying from high to minimal) and were obtained with divergent methods in investigations in which CCR5 was never the main focus [ 20, 27, 49, 58, 59].
ANCOVA is a robust method for comparison of groups with divergent body weight and composition (Arch et al., 2006).
By providing a hub to link people with divergent perspectives, the Brokered Dialogue method can also serve as a social intervention, potentially contributing to the resolution of disagreements through a variety of applications, discussed in greater detail below.
Our findings suggest that inputting both qualitative and quantitative data obtained by participatory methods into Ostrom's framework can help diagnose territories with divergent landscapes, and thereby inform both forest conservation science and local land management.
The ICEMR sites are currently taking advantage of such methods to better characterize malaria transmission across study sites with divergent epidemiologic characteristics.
Patient studies with divergent quantitative diagnosis based on the quantification method used.
Combining methods from cultural ecology and environmental psychology, this study identifies two groups with divergent behavioral intentions which we term semi-permanent cultivators and shifting cultivators.
To overcome these complex issues of vaccine design, bioinformatics methods may help to determine common features of vaccine antigens that have potential to deal with divergent population and HIV quasispecies.
