A review of the English-speaking literature will be discussed evaluating the historical development, design considerations, animal models, basic science studies, cadaveric research, and clinical outcomes of the partial removal of the intervertebral disc (nucleus pulposus) and replacement with a motion-sparing implant.
Although the simplistic mechanistic basis of the EU model can be contested and practical interpretations have gone beyond the putative mechanism, the multi-level structure does reflect the structure of the data and account for the major statistical issue of the partial observability of the outcome.
The final seasonal models predict the mean levels of the outcomes from the partial regression coefficients of the seasonal functions.
Wheat had the lowest percentage (4%) of DEGs, which may be to the outcome of partial representation of transcripts on the Affymetrix array.
Third, the outcome of partial participation seems small.
Nevertheless, even if factors directly attributable to study design are largely controlled, the outcome of partial AZFc deletion association studies may vary greatly, as illustrated by two reports published on Han Chinese men.
We were therefore unable to evaluate the effects on cost and outcome of partial treatments, to identify the rate of medical system utilization as a function of time, or to denominate outpatient care as a cost per day.
In addition to that, analyzing the short term outcome of patients after partial meniscectomy and meniscus suturing Biedert found that both groups had comparable clinical and radiological results in the IKDC score and postoperative MRI (Biedert, 2000).
Y. Ooka et al. evaluated the long-term outcome of partial splenic embolization (PSE) with selective TACE in patients with advanced HCC accompanied by severe thrombocytopenia and reported that the procedure allowed these patients to receive additional sorafenib chemotherapy.
On half of the trials (complete feedback trials), the outcome for the unselected choice was revealed alongside the outcome for the selected choice, whereas on the other half of trials (partial feedback trials) the outcome of the selected choice only was revealed.
