In a recent study conducted by Yao and coworkers [ 28], including DCIS, IDC and lymph node metastases, the authors identified 49 minimal commonly amplified regions, including known (1q, 8q24, 11q13, 17q21-q23 and 20q13) and previously uncharacterized regions (12p13 and 16p13).
While key copying was traditionally performed mostly by locksmiths, that model has changed during the last fifteen years, especially for conventional non-high security keys that require minimal skill and commonly available blanks.
In the liver, deposition of abnormal immunoglobulins is commonly minimal and sinusoidal, but can be massive.
In this work, we describe the design of our framework, and introduce several techniques that when combined allow it to parallelize applications successfully with minimal overheads on commonly-available multicores.
The QTc intervals showed minimal change from the commonly regarded normal physiological range, and had no significant relationship with (R -, (S)- or total albuterol levels (Figure 3).
Minimal intervention strategies are commonly used for control groups in order to compare them to an intervention group [ 30].
Commonly accepted minimal standards for reliability coefficients are 0.70 for group comparisons and 0.90 for comparisons within individuals [ 2].
An alpha coefficient of ≥ 0.70 was considered acceptable, which is the commonly accepted minimal standard for reliability coefficients endorsed by the Scientific Advisory Committee of the Medical Outcomes Trust [ 26].
This is about half of the commonly reported minimal fall frequency of 0.33 falls per person-year in this age group.
In contrast, we have demonstrated that Osc-ABI can be easily performed by clinical assistants, i.e., nurses or others, after minimal training and with commonly available devices (2, 7).
With a view to obtain truly isoform-specific antibodies, and since the commonly accepted minimal size for a peptide epitope is five amino acids, we chose to immunize rabbits with shorter peptides that overlapped by only three amino acids between the two MeCP2 isoforms.
