Told through a sequential collage of stark black-and-white stills and a masterpiece of voice-over, La Jetèe is a stunned reflection on the variabilities of emotional time, set to the backbeat of an over-stimulated heart.
The concordance between mRNA and enzyme activity measures but not protein levels is likely a reflection of the higher variability of Western blotting compared to qRT-PCR and enzyme activity assays.
However, the heterogeneity of subjects may be a reflection of the high variability of the disease itself.
To test whether the changes in preferred directions during static roll-tilt were not simply a reflection of the inherent variability of responses of each neuron, we calculated preferred direction and SD of the preferred direction for each neuron by the fitting procedure (e.g., Fig. 2 B, right).
Thus the former leads to a reflection of interannual variability of the emission factor, while the latter does only influence the periodic data.
The current geographic distribution of aquatic, semi-aquatic, and riparian species is a reflection of the abundance and variability of water supply in different regions.
A major assumption in this process is the historical record is a reasonable reflection of the longer-term natural variability of the hazard event in question (Liu and Fearn 2000; Nott and Hayne 2001; Donnelly and Woodruff 2007).
The first component, which is the duration of the postprandial glucose increment, is a major contributor to chronic sustained hyperglycaemia, while the second component, which is the magnitude of the postprandial rise, is more often a reflection of glucose variability.
We suspect that there are some systematic experimental fluctuations that make measured excess noise levels vary across days, and that the observed distributions of excess noise levels are more a reflection of experimental variability than of true shifts in the distribution.
Differences observed between regions are likely to be a reflection of natural variability, which may be confounded by the smaller number of Japanese patients (n=101) compared with patients outside Japan and the total study population (VIEW 1, N=1217 and VIEW 2, N=1240).
The changes observed over the last several decades are likely mostly due to human activities, but we cannot rule out that some significant part of these changes are also a reflection of natural variability.
