Ultimately, this meant that females associated with more attractive males at low, not high densities.
Another more recent meta-analysis demonstrated among 40 trials of lipid-modifying drugs that LDL-C, but not high-density lipoprotein, levels were predictive of both primary and secondary CVEs [ 3].
Among all study women, high maternal viral load and episiotomy or perineal tear were independent risk factors, and low-density (but not high-density) malaria was an independent protective factor for perinatal MTCT.
The incidence of BML at follow-up was associated with higher levels of total cholesterol (odds ratio [OR] 1.84, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01, 3.36; P = 0.048) and triglycerides (OR 8.4, 95% CI 1.63, 43.43; P = 0.01), but not high-density lipoprotein (HDL) (P = 0.93), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) (P = 0.20) or total cholesterol/HDL ratio (P = 0.17).
The biochemical effects of simvastatin therapy were reflected in a significant reduction in concentration of serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (mean difference, −47.6 mg/dL; 95% CI, −61.5 to −33.7; P <.001), but not high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (mean difference, 1.1 mg/dL; 95% CI, −5.9 to 8.1; P =.74) (Table 5).
The decreased levels of plasma cholesterol observed by the combination therapy were attributed to a substantial decrease (64% relative to vehicle) in low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and not high-density lipoprotein (HDL), which is enhanced compared to the effect of liraglutide (35%) and RM-493 (46%) alone (Fig 5A).
The finding of reduced perinatal MTCT in the presence of low-density, but not high-density, placental malaria does not suggest altering existing recommendations for the use of intermittent preventive antimalarial treatment in pregnant women in malarious areas of Africa (47 ).
To determine whether adaptation to low host density – but not high host density – is accomplished by the evolution of generalist traits, we adapted replicate phage populations to experimental low density and high density microcosms containing an equal mixture of E. coli and S. typhimurium.
This implies that common voles could not reach high density in a non productive environment and means that high plant productivity may be a prerequisite for common vole population cycles.
We hypothesized that the nanocomposite with more ramified structure (branched PEI), not high charge density, should have better pollutant removal capability.
The process flow is optimized for straightforward process integration, not for high density, making it suitable for MEMS applications.
