Besides the analysis of dynamics of the main medical-demographic official indices (I block of research), we focused also on the study of prenatal mortality indices, as more sensitive indicator of the obstetrician level, also social-economic conditions (II block).
Da Silva and coworkers [ 67] suggested that CRP might be a more sensitive indicator of sepsis than leukocyte indices alone.
The fast and distinct response in the GEC indicates that this measure could serve as a more sensitive indicator of metabolic status than the AEC.
OPTIONS VOLATILITY Options on stock market volatility can be an even more sensitive indicator of fear than the market itself.
A more sensitive indicator of minimal emotional arousal than are other physiological responses, the PGR has figured extensively in studies of emotion and emotional learning.

However, SDLP appears to be a more sensitive indicator of driving impairment than other driving performance variables and the results of the present study support its use as a performance outcome when examining alcohol-induced simulated driving impairment.
LI was a more sensitive indicator of cellular damage than histopathological examination and is the more conservative end point for use in risk assessments.
Third, bilirubin levels decreased in the therapeutic group but remained unchanged in the diagnostic group, suggesting that the serum bilirubin level may be a more sensitive indicator of successful therapeutic intervention than transaminases.
Therefore, we suggest that the forenoon NmF2 in low mid-latitude region is a more sensitive indicator of solar activity variation than the daytime maximum NmF2, and this feature may be useful in empirical modeling studies.
Compared to common monitoring systems based on multimetric indices, the multivariate analysis of multiple taxonomic groups presented herein, based on current statistical methods, is feasible with the same sampling effort but constitutes a much more sensitive indicator.
