The density required for the original stiffness to be regained increased linearly with the degree of initial resorption, with a slope of approximately 0.5 and an R2 of 65.2%, lower than that observed for the previous relationships.
The etching rate increased as the output power, oxygen gas flux, and moisture regain increased.
Because the rapid increase of human population poses unprecedented challenges to production of an adequate and economically feasible food supply for undernourished populations, soilless greenhouse production systems are regaining increased worldwide attention.
In the context of the DPP's intentional weight loss program, weight cycling was associated with overall weight regain, increased risk of diabetes, and elevations in SBP, insulin resistance, and fasting glucose.
Moreover, chronic dieting is associated with reduced bone mineral content (BMC) (Bacon et al. 2004) and repeated cycles of weight loss and regain increase the risk of bone fracture (Meyer et al. 1998).
Our findings generally agree with those reported elsewhere that indicate that weight cycling is associated with weight regain, increased risk of hypertension and diabetes, and elevations in other cardiometabolic traits (2, 13– 13).
The rate of denim softness, water absorption and moisture regain increase due to catalytic hydrolysis by the cellulase (fibers are loosened by the enzyme).
Consistent with these findings, observational data indicate that both weight loss and repeated cycles of weight loss and regain increase fracture risk in both men and women (Langlois et al. 1998; Meyer et al. 1998; Langlois et al. 2001; Bacon et al. 2004).
Pain reduction can be regained by increasing the SCS frequency, but this has not been investigated in a prospective trial.
As previously reported for catalyzed aerobic oxidation of non-activated alcohols,[ 15] we observed a decreased reactivity for β-branched alkylamines, but some activity could be regained by increasing the reaction time (Table 2, entry 19).
