Several different populations of marine turtles display asymmetrical peaked patterns associated with their nesting season [e.g. [ 30- 32]].
Visual inspection of the annual hazard rates presented in Figure 2a suggests that there is a double-peaked pattern; one peak is rather flat and the second is more pronounced.
In other words, when stimulated by the smaller dosage, the levels of the First Maximum, of the subsequent maxima, and of the Steady State are the same, i.e., NF-кB profiles exhibit either a monotonically-increasing pattern or single-peaked pattern with low peak amplitude.
Close correlation of the two-peaked pattern of the galactic cosmic rays 27-day variation with changes of the longitudinal asymmetry of the sunspot distribution at the maxima epochs of solar activity has been observed.
The projected time series of cases shows a double-peaked pattern.
But the damped oscillatory profiles are very similar to a single-peaked pattern.
A double-peaked pattern is seen in both ER-positive and ER-negative subgroups.
The double-peaked pattern observed in Singaporean women was quantitatively and qualitatively similar to those reported in Western series.
The monotonic-increasing (or over-damped) pattern originates from strong negative feedback loops, while the single-peaked pattern results from weak negative feedback loops.
No multi-peaked pattern was evident or even suggested for either pre-menopausal (Fig. 3a) or post-menopausal (Fig. 4a) women.
