For months, Republican leaders used all the tools at their disposal — the anti-spending intensity of their base, the White House's desire for a deal, the specter of dire consequences if the debt ceiling wasn't raised — to leverage their way into a favorable position.
Cut points used to determine minutes spent at intensity levels were chosen based on previous research.
We undertook a systematic review to examine the current evidence that quantifies the effect of feminization on time spent working, intensity and scope of work, and practice characteristics.
Original research comparing male to female PCPs on measures of years of practice, time spent working, intensity of work, scope of work, or practice characteristics was included.
The suggested correction factors would only apply to similar distributions of time spent across intensities.
Using standard definitions, time was classified as SED when spent in intensities between 0 and 199 cpm [ 12], LIPA was regarded as cpm between 200 and 2689, and MVPA as ≥2690 cpm, [ 13].
This compares favorably with a recent English study conducted in obese and overweight nondiabetic pregnant women, which found that only 2 h out of a total 12.4 daytime hours (16%) was spent in light intensity activities, with 9.7 h (81%) spent sedentary, although an equivalent of 33 min were spent in moderate intensity exercise (23).
As a percentage of value added (a measurement known as R&D intensity) spending is just under 2% in Britain, compared to nearly 3% in America.
We evaluate the impact of M&A activity on the growth of R&D spending and R&D intensity of 265 acquiring firms and 133 merger targets between 1990 and 2009.
Over 24 h, 72% of the time was spent ≤1.5 METs (including sleeping), 23% of the time was spent with light intensity activities (>1.5 to 3.0 METs), and 5% was spent with PA of moderate to vigorous intensity (≥3 METs) (Table 2).
