Early studies speculated that salivary cortisol may exhibit no increase during pregnancy in contrast to the marked rise found in serum, but our observation of modest elevation is consistent with reports of elevated basal cortisol late in gestation as measured by either RIA or EIA [ 59- 61].
Prostate cancer was not elevated in the cohort (Table 2), but a modest elevation was observed among workers with 10 years or more of employment (6 deaths, SMR 1.58, CI 0.58 – 3.44).
Gilman, J. G., Mishima, N., Wen, X. J., Kutlar, F. & Huisman, T. H. Upstream promoter mutation associated with a modest elevation of fetal hemoglobin expression in human adults.
In the Chisos Mountains, the pine-scented Lost Mine Trail, around five miles round trip with a modest elevation gain of about 1,200 feet, was just enough of a workout for us, climbing to a promontory with spectacular canyon and mountain views.
Grapes are grown at modest elevation in soils of schist, limestone and clay.
Over and above their prior vulnerabilities, victimized adolescents still showed a modest elevation in risk for suicidal ideation (OR=1.36, 95%CI=1.06-1.76) and self-harm (OR=1.50, 95% CI=1.18-1.91), but not suicide attempt (OR=1.28, 95% CI=0.83-1.98).
The diagnostic criteria for TCM include the following: transient hypokinesis, akinesis, or dyskinesis in the left ventricular mid-wall segments with or without apical involvement; absence of obstructive coronary disease; new ECG abnormalities or modest elevation in cardiac troponin; and absence of pheochromocytoma and myocarditis [9].
The authors' conclusion is that intense resistance training produces a prolonged but modest elevation in post-exercise metabolism in women.
Specifically, H4K20me1 undergoes a modest elevation during S phase, but is markedly increased as cell progress from G2 through mitosis.
More modest elevation of ROS activates "redoxin signaling" which uses cysteine residues as redox sensors to mediate inflammatory responses [1], [5].
The induction mechanism of LTP involves modest elevation of postsynaptic Ca2+ to activate protein phosphatases [10], in combination with NO acting in a cGMP-independent manner [11].
