The main limitation of our study is the small population size (n = 5), which obviously restricts the strength of our conclusions.
Little epidemiological information was available, and the few published studies were limited in their design, restricting the strength of the conclusions that could be drawn about the reproductive hazards of BPA exposure [reviewed by Richter et al. (2007) and vom Saal et al. (2007)].
Restricted to current smokers, the strength of the association between chronic bronchitis and lung cancer decreased with increasing pack-years, smoking intensity, and smoking duration [Table 4] (LRT p-values for continuous pack-years and smoking intensity <0.001, smoking duration 0.02).
Here we restrict our investigation to the strength of the relationship between individual nodes in the BBN and the query node, and compute corresponding Mutual Information percentages MI% for each pair (Ebert-Uphoff 2007; see Methods and Additional file 4).
This is because restricted variability results in the underestimation of the strength of linear relationships or the inability to detect curvilinear relationships [ 15, 16].
From the outset she restricted the sale of her guide dogs to persons of sufficient maturity, strength, ambition, and financial means to benefit fully from the freedom that a guide dog made possible.
By contrast, for Boolean networks, the values of the nodes, which are analogous to concepts in the CMAP methodology, vary discretely between 0 and 1 and the strength of the interactions are restricted to 0, 1 or −1.
It restricted the growth of the artists.
Within single lap joints, presence of material and geometric discontinuities restrict the applicability of strength of material based approach for failure load prediction.
Hence, CTLA-4 might differentially restrict the expansion of T cells on the basis of the strength of the TCR signal they receive.
