We are not aware of any studies showing hemispheric differences in cerebral blood flow resulting from the 2VO/HYP procedure or differences in the internal diameters of cerebral vasculature between the two hemispheres.
To evaluate whether this discrepancy was due to experimental procedure or differences in patient population, patients (n = 15) and controls (n = 15) were analysed in parallel with both methods, using S. aureus, P. aeruginosa, PMA and E. coli as stimuli.
The ability of the OECD Hershberger bioassay protocol to detect these androgenic changes was not affected by differences in rat strain, diet, caging, routine laboratory procedures, or modest differences in the ages at which the animals were castrated.
The inconsistencies between findings may be attributed to the differences between CAM and invasive procedures or the difference between the constructs of reported disability, perceived impact of MS, perceived physical health and perceived overall health.
The balkanization of the management and financing of the national health system contributes to substantial differences in temporal and spatial access to care across the country for the same procedures or treatments due to differences in the priorities and resources of the health administrations in each province or territory [ 23].
It remains to be tested whether the differences in results are due to sample differences or differences in procedures.
It is not clear whether this variability represents measurement error arising from the assays and sampling procedures, or true inter-individual differences in the effects between women.
We don't have enough of an understanding yet to know whether that is because of genetics or differences in procedure.
The difference may potentially reflect inter-subject variability, or differences in sampling procedures.
When comparing those who lost the diagnosis on follow-up with those who did not (Table 4), we found no sex or procedure differences between the groups, yet those who did not meet the criteria of the syndrome after surgery were significantly younger (45 ± 9 vs. 57 ± 10 years, P = 0.01).
