A carbon electrode with a thorn-like nanostructure could be fabricated by UV/ozone treatment using different etching rates depending on nanometer-order differences in the local sp3 content of the nanocarbon film.
The hypotheses of Sulloway (1996) regarding birth order differences in five-factor model personality traits were tested in a sample of 231 college students with the NEO Five-Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI; Costa & McCrae, 1992).
In our study, however, birth order differences in adiposity were not apparent.
The Jonckheere Terpstra test was used to identify ordered differences in marker expression.
Nevertheless, birth order differences in height and blood pressure remained at 2 3 mm Hg, after adjustment for sex and maternal height.
However, traditional accounts of the health impact of ordered differences in SES (e.g., by occupational prestige or income) have not clearly disentangled the contribution of social position from access to material resources (Kawachi, Adler, & Dow, 2010; Marmot & Wilkinson, 2001).
The null distribution assumed a random rank distribution utilizing an empirical permutation test procedure that randomly assigned probeset names to the rank ordered differences in expression ("GSEA Preranked" algorithm).
For a certain distance, one-order difference in flow rate yields almost three-order difference in shear stress.
This order difference in d c is consistent with the idea of scaling in slip weakening distance (e.g., Ide and Aochi, 2005).
Then using the results of the previous section and the special properties of the first-order difference in the case S = v p, which will be given below, we can determine the first-order difference of the integers in N 2. Generally, we can compute the first-order difference of the integers in N k if those in N k − 1 are already known.
