In Section 2, we present some notations and preliminary results for certain determinants by using different methods.
Missing from our preliminary model are the social determinants of health (e.g., disadvantage, deprivation, segregation, financial hardship, social capital) that could be measured at the community- or neighborhood-level as well as other area-level factors that could influence receipt of WBVs such as poverty, availability of and proximity to medical providers, and transportation-related resources.
The purpose of this pilot study was two-fold: to examine the relationship between developmental delays and dental caries in low-income preschoolers and to present a preliminary explanatory model on the determinants of caries for enrollees in Head Start, a U.S. school readiness program for low-income preschool-aged children.
We offer a preliminary framework for examining the contextual determinants of variable pay plan design.
The results presented here are preliminary to the identification of genetic determinants underlying variation in quantitative traits, including risk factors for many common disorders.
The classification and sourcing technique applied is not a determinant method, but a preliminary approach adequate to deal with a very large lithic artifact sample.
The proposed hybrid model was then validated using a subset of preliminary experiments to pinpoint the same determinant pathways, while predicting the productivity of independent cultures.
Our preliminary studies indicated that a major determinant of the VEGF concentrations in each of the three compartments is the VEGF secretion rates from endothelial cells, normal cells (myocytes), and tumor cells.
As a preliminary step towards understanding genomic and transcriptomic determinants of phenotypic differences between Plasmodium species, we have performed a comprehensive analysis of constraints on protein coding regions, upstream regions and gene expression between Plasmodium species.
The CA, height and SP were shown in preliminary analyses to be the major significant determinants of RA. Biochemical parameters were not significant in any preliminary analyses.
