The counts were subjected to Abercrombie correction for section thickness and differences in the nuclear or nucleolar diameter (34), as modified by Amann (35): average number of cells = [number of nuclei counted × thickness (μm) of section]/[average diameter of nuclei (μm) + thickness (μm) of section].
In Queensland, women who birth in the private sector are more likely than women in the public sector to have a caesarean section, and these differences are not attributable to maternal risk or preference [ 46].
Optimisation of surgical techniques may be able to reduce both the short-term and the long-term morbidity associated with caesarean section and although differences may be relatively modest, the commonness of the operation means that even small improvements in outcome may result in substantial improvements in health for many thousands of women and considerable cost savings for health services.
Figure 3 displays the phantom phase images corresponding to the two phantoms, in the context of the imaging setup described in detail in Section 4, the ideal phantom images obtained using the data fitting procedure outlined in this section, and the difference images.
However, the students in the MC + SA section consistently reported more cognitively active learning behaviors in non exam weeks than the students in the MC-only section, and this difference in study behavior translated into significantly better student performance on the cumulative final exam.
Rails with squat defects in different stages were removed from the site, investigated and inspected visually, ultrasonically, optically and by using electron microscopy to find the main cause of crack initiation and squat formation Microscopic observations revealed primary, secondary and tertiary cracks in the transverse section of rails, and differences in crack surface appearance.
These strong region-region differences in ASRs are robustly observed (see the next section) and suggest genuine differences in stress outcome across different parts of the brain.
Cross-region and time variations in educational levels may then explain the observed cross-section and time differences in occupational groups in the Spanish data.
We analyzed the content of 31 university-level anthropology textbooks for the following: (1) presence of a definition of evolution in various sections of the textbooks, (2) accuracy and consistency of the definitions provided in the textbook sections, and (3) differences between textbooks for cultural and physical anthropology.
In the present study, we applied statistical parametric mapping of immunopositive cell density [35], [38], [39] to c-Fos immuno-stained sections and illustrated differences in brain activity among three task groups.
