Linear regression analysis was also used to determine if there was a within-specimen relationship between motion at the stem-cement interface and cement-bone interfaces.
In the excision specimen the relationship was stronger (P < 0.0001); median RFS was about 18 months for patients with Ki67 in the highest tertile, as compared with more than 7 years for the other two tertiles.
We conclude that no single 'critical temperature' for thermal fracturing or heat treatment can be specified for any particular raw material, as has so often been attempted, because threshold temperatures exist in relationship to specimen sizes.
However, for expression of δEF1 in ER+ and ER- breast tumor specimens, this relationship was reversed; here ER+ tumors had lower δEF1 mRNA levels than ER-.
Thus, although M41 mRNA relates to oestrogen receptor status in the malignant breast-derived cell lines tested, in the carcinoma specimens, the relationship is stronger between benign and malignant than between oestrogen receptor positive and negative.
Various scenarios of different numbers of individual samples, different numbers of pooled samples containing various numbers of individual specimens, the relationships between chemical analytical error and other sources of sample variance, have been compared by simulating random sampling from computer generated populations using realistic measures of variation from ongoing monitoring activities.
This approach let us screen for symbionts using one or few host specimens, infer relationships among the bacteria detected, and place newly-discovered isolates within a broader phylogenetic context.
By using specially designed freestanding 8 wt.% Y2O3 stabilized ZrO2 (8Yspecimensmens, a linear relationship is found between the Raman peak shift, Δω, and applied uniaxial compressive stress, σ̅u, i.e., Δω = Πuσ̅u with Πu being the piezo-spectroscopic coefficient.
Non-linear finite element analyses for 3-D models of plane-sided SE(B) and PCVN specimens define the relationship between ˜σw and J from which the variation of fracture toughness across different crack configurations is predicted.
Our analysis of SNAI2/Slug expression in primary glioma specimens suggested a relationship between SNAI2/Slug and invasive phenotype.
However, it is known that there is no universal relationship between specimen sizes and test results (Koerner 1998).
