The public availability of large microarray BC datasets and the recently introduced measures for performance assessment in survival analysis allow to perform an in-depth comparative study in order to elucidate the key characteristics of a successful risk prediction method and to bring new insights into BC prognostication.
In sessile colonial marine invertebrates (e.g., sponges, cnidarians, bryozoans and ascidians), fusion among conspecifics during early ontogeny could immediately lead to a marked increase in juvenile size, thereby enhancing the performance in growth, survival and competition.
Using behavioral endpoints, two studies reported improvement in rotarod performance and survival in R6/2 mice [15], [25] although others reported either negative or lack of effects in R6/2 [26], no effects in the N171-82Q model [27] and toxicity in the 3-nitroproprionic acid HD model [28].
Lay-flat orientation, which is the most frequent position in broadcast sowing, is recommended at 5 mm sowing depth for the lowland bamboo based on overall performance in seedling emergence, survival and growth.
In other words, if Ne was positively correlated with a population's performance in new environments, survival reductions in small populations would still have been observed.
While some biologically significant differences were observed among groups in each study in relation to performance in freshwater (juvenile survival, juvenile migratory behaviour, size at age, propensity for precocity in male parr), these were typically of limited magnitude.
The excellent performance of one gene in survival prediction immediately raises the question whether this gene was included in all studies.
Larval traits not only influence larval survival, but can also "carry-over" to influence performance and survival in subsequent stages [14], [15], [16], [17], [18].
We investigated dispersal, morphological responses, reproductive performance, and survival in ten different clonal strains.
Intracerebroventricular delivery of recombinant VEGF protein improves motor performance and survival in a rodent model of ALS [ 230].
