Within such metapopulations, particular demes might persistently function as sources or sinks, or they might switch between these states owing to catastrophic disturbances.
Lower HRQoL in Tonga was due to persistently lower functioning and wellbeing within all studied aspects of HRQoL (physical, emotional, social, and school functioning and wellbeing).

However, a clinical pattern, termed Delayed Sleep Phase Disorder (DSPD), may emerge when sleep onset persistently occurs between the hours of 2 00 a.m.–6:00 and. and begins to interfere with functioning [ 7].
This issue is of interest because interruption of 5-HT1A receptor function during neurodevelopment persistently alters the function of emotion modulating systems in genetically engineered mice (Gross et al. 2002).
Although it is not yet clear how single cell homeostasis may function in a persistently hyperexcitable network (for a discussion, see [18]), it seems that homeostatic plasticity of both intrinsic excitability and synaptic inputs is a potentially key factor in the emergence and maintenance of spontaneous seizures following insults [32].
Folate, vitamin B12, and homocysteine concentrations during pregnancy are important factors for early development and may persistently influence kidney function in the offspring.
BACKGROUND: Hibernating myocardium describes persistently impaired ventricular function at rest caused by reduced coronary blood flow.
Two patients in this series that are treated with PLP have persistently deranged liver function tests.
Two patients on PLP treatment have persistently deranged liver function tests.
All treatment groups, with the exception of men on androgen deprivation therapy (who had poor baseline function), persistently reported more sexual bother than controls (fig 4).
