The authors of that study, as do we, acknowledge that the 1918 pandemic was relatively more severe than subsequent pandemic outbreaks and that access to care and antibiotics has changed dramatically over the past century.
This study has identified a larger attributable contribution of severe floods to dysentery in the population than moderate floods, which suggests that the degree of increased incidence due to dysentery caused by severe floods is relatively more severe than that by moderate floods.
This would be consistent with the recent observation that exclusive expression of farnesylatable progerin elicited a relatively more severe progeroid phenotypes than those of its non-farnesylated form in knock-in mice [37].
Present data have shown that CD-high-CU children exhibit relatively more severe antisocial behaviour than their CD-low-CU counterparts.
Given also that CD-high-CU children exhibited relatively more severe antisocial behaviour than their CD-low-CU counterparts, this interpretation seems difficult to reconcile with the findings of Waterman et al. [ 13], who found that affective but not cognitive perspective-taking superiorities are related to more serious patterns of antisocial behaviour in CD children.
Autosomal recessive microcephaly, infantile-onset seizures, and developmental delay (MCSZ) is a relatively more severe disorder.
Moreover, in these geographic areas, the endemic fluorosis is relatively more severe in the provinces of Heilongjiang, Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, Gansu, Tianjin, Hebei, Henan, Jiangsu, Shandong, and Anhui than in other provinces.

The drop is more severe than Apple's actual miss, relatively speaking.
Losses, as mortalities caused by diseases, predation and cannibalism, deformities and escapes from the cages, have also been more severe than expected and contribute to the relatively high production costs.
In gefitinib-treated mice, OA damages on the articular cartilage was relatively milder than those in Egfr Wa5/+ mice, but still more severe than their vehicle-treated controls with increased fibrillation, clefting and erosion at the surface of articular cartilage.
