For example, if highly motivated and determined workers do persistently well in the labor market, conditioning on earlier labor market outcomes should help to remove selection bias that results from motivation or determination playing a role in receipt of VR.
Both body weight and length, determined over time, were persistently lower in former BPD infants compared to controls, but no significant between-group differences were noted in respiratory rate, respiratory or airway resistance, functional residual capacity as determined by body plethysmography (FRCpleth), maximal expiratory flow at the FRC (V'max FRC), or blood gas (pO2, pCO2) levels.
***Susceptibilities for penicillin, ampicillin, erythromycin, ciprofloxacin, cotrimoxazole, chloramphenical, and ceftriaxone were determined; S. pneumoniae maintained a persistently high level of resistance 58-744%) to cotrimoxazole.
To the best of our knowledge, though, the relative contribution of persistently colonized HCWs in the epidemiology of MRSA endemicity has never been determined, and, consequently, there is no information on the possible effects of decolonizing persistently colonized HCWs.
A better explanation is required as to how the structure of non-native dimer 1 was determined when the only active restraint was persistently violated.
For the infectious period, a minimum as well as a maximum infectious period was determined, to account for uncertainties regarding infectiousness of persistently infected pigs.
The time series analysis determined that malaria parasitemia (primarily P. falciparum) was persistently present throughout the population with the expected seasonal variability pattern and a downward temporal trend.
A concept of the extended controllable set is further proposed, by which the complete feasible region for given constant MDT can be determined such that the switched MPC law can be persistently solved and the resulting closed-loop system is asymptotically stable.
Officials agreed to empower the I.M.F. to investigate the "persistently large imbalances" and determine "the root causes" of why adjustment had been so hard to achieve.
