The great variety in angiosperm genome structure is largely an outcome of differences in the specificities, frequencies, and amplitudes of these common genome-altering processes.
Being, as it is, the simple outcome of differences in reproductive success due to heritable traits, natural selection cannot have plans, goals, or intentions, nor can it cause changes in response to need.
This local perspective, which has its roots in the classic niche theory [1], [2], [3], [4], suggests that among-habitat differences in community structure are largely deterministic outcomes of differences in environmental conditions among habitats.
18 We used negative binomial regression (offset by natural log of time to death) to calculate secondary outcomes of differences in number of hospital admissions and hospital days, presented as incident rate ratios.
Additionally, analysis of the primary outcomes of differences in depressive and manic episodes defined as HDRS ≥14 and YMRS ≥14 during the trial period will be done employing survival analysis with reasons for censoring being date of death or date of drop out.
Evaluation of outcome and of differences among subgroups was performed according to standard methods; the criteria for response were those used for acute leukemia.
The plan was supposed to help address inequity in the system so that, in Gonski's words, "differences in educational outcomes are not the result of differences in wealth, income, power or possessions".
The total sample size of 378 pregnant women at baseline (189 in each group and each treatment site) was determined by power calculations (using 90% power and a 5% level of significance) using the primary outcomes of difference in exacerbation rate between treatment groups.
When optimizing the parameters in step 2, we hypothesized that observed differences in concentrations of molecular markers between healthy subjects and Crohn's disease patients are a systemic outcome of the differences in IL-6 concentrations.
But if the outcome of these differences is that we trade our human rights for an ad-economy, then we as a society are paying too high a price for our free services.
However, efforts to address income inequality must confront ideologies justifying inequality as the natural (and hence fair) outcome of individual differences in skills, talents, and effort, ignoring structural causes.
