To this end, we devised a UTR shortening index (USI).
A 3′ untranslated region shortening index (USI) was further developed for genes with tandem APA sites.
3′ UTR shortening index (USI) is defined as the length difference between annotated and effective 3′ UTR (USI = Annotated_UTR_Length − Effective_UTR_Length, see Figure 6a).
As a measure of relative shortening, the clavicle shortening index after fracture consolidation (CSIcons) was calculated as follows: In which Ltrauma is the length of the affected clavicle after trauma, fracture overlap is the overlap between the fracture fragments measured on the trauma radiograph, and Lpanorama is the length of the consolidated affected clavicle.
We measured a number of indices of mechanical (stress production, twitch duration, extent of shortening, shortening velocity, shortening power, stiffness, and work output) and energetic (heat production, change of enthalpy, and efficiency) performance.
Although, we only assess RV systolic reserve by longitudinal shortening indices, Brown et al. showed that improved RV function following pulmonary vasodilator therapy occurs solely from improvements in longitudinal contraction, suggesting that longitudinal shortening may represent the afterload-responsive element of RV functional recovery [ 38].
Symbian's lead has shortened in the CTR Index table yet remains the OS to beat with regards to CTR performance in mobile advertising.
At high pH, γ-zein increased the consistency index (K) and shortened gelation time.
His movements are so deliberate that his steps are usually dogged by his road manager, Jack Boyd, a hard, brisk, red-faced little white man from Texas, whose right index finger was shortened by a planing machine twenty years ago.
In a barre chord (sometimes shortened to "bar chord"), the index finger of your fretting hand "bars" all the notes at a single fret.
