Because the sample sizes were small (7 RCB 0/I and 26 RCB II/III cases), we adopted a relaxed significance threshold (permutation P < 0.005 without correction for multiple testing).
The hydraulic properties (saturated and unsaturated) of 100% RCB, 30% RCB, 15% RCB, 5% RCB and 100% RCA were determined at the optimum water content and 95% of dry density using rigid-wall hydraulic conductivity test and multi-step outflow, respectively.
The null hypotheses tested were: (1) there are no differences in the physical/mechanical properties between HP/HT polymerized UDMA-TEGDMA RCB and a commercial RCB; (2) volume fraction filler (Vf) does not affect the physical/mechanical properties of HP/HT polymerized RCB.

RCB [13], DCB [14], and the method in [32] can obtain superior output SINR by automatically adjusting the look direction to SOI.
The study was approved by our local ethics committee (comité de protection des personnes de l'université Paris VII n° SC 13-026, ID RCB: 2013-A0141837), waivedwaived the need for written informed consent because of the observational nature of the study.
Our institution review board (Comité de Protection des Personnes Lyon Est III ref: 2013-027 B, ANSM Number ID RCB : 2013-A00729-36) approved the study protocol and waived signed informed consent.
Scenario 2: Firstly, we compare the output SINR of the proposed robust adaptive monopulse algorithm with those of the conventional LCMV algorithm [6], RCB [13], DCB [14], RAB with derivative constraints [24], RAB with multi-directional constraints [23] and the method in [47].
We used logistic regression to examine the relationships between the covariables comparing the RCB 0/1 group with the RCB 2/3 group.
CENP-B levels were not different between patients in the RCB 0/1 or RCB 2/3 groups for either ER-positive or ER-negative patients (data not shown).
