Two measurement modes were related including attenuated total reflection (ATR) mapping and micro transmission with diamond compression cell.
Task performance (low error and bias) was related to attenuated response in ambiguous conditions while increased response in regions associated with the default mode network was associated with greater overall error and bias towards other.
The authors hypothesized that the reported advantages might be related to attenuated ipsilateral baroreflex control of blood pressure, caused by chemical denervation of the carotid bulb baroreceptor nerve fibers.
This cognitive improvement was strongly related with attenuated salivary melatonin levels, particularly for the light condition at 6500K.
In contrast, neutral content in the early lag was specifically related to attenuated ssVEP amplitude.
However, whether hypoxemia may also be related to attenuated perception of sleep quality in OSA patient is still unclear.
This association is supported by the finding that higher a priori PA levels are related to attenuated 3- or 6-year increases in carotid IMT [ 42, 47].
Delayed HRR after exercise could be related to attenuated parasympathetic reactivity, which has been described as a marker of decreased vagal activity [ 39].
Elevated serum ICAM-1 level is correlated significantly with serum CA19-9 and CEA in GC (Polychronidis et al, 2003); consistently, suppression of ICAM-1 expression is related to attenuated tumour progression and metastasis (Kaliora et al, 2008; Chen et al, 2012; Yu et al, 2012).
Indeed, germ-line deficiencies in DNA repair have been clearly shown to cause a number of hereditary cancer-prone diseases such as BRCA1- and BRCA2-associated breast cancer, mismatch repair-associated hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer, the nucleotide excision repair deficient xeroderma pigmentosum, and MutYH-related attenuated familial adenomatous polyposis (4 8).
