Our age standardized prevalence of 28.0 % was similar to the age standardized levels reported by the Millenium Villages in rural Malawi, Rwanda, and Tanzania (22.8 % hypertension) [ 22].
Our data selection steps [for example, steps III, IX and XV] guarantee standardized levels of the density of the data set and of sequence overlap between included species.
All analyses used standardized levels (z scores) of area characteristics or their log-transformed values when the distributions of raw values were positively skewed.
There was a statistically significant negative correlation between trait mean-standardized levels of additive genetic variation (IG) and mean growth rate for the nine populations at all three temperatures (Table 5).
Standardization for sampling conditions modified the median concentrations by − 38%% for 2,5-DCP up to +80 % for MCNP, but standardized levels were relatively strongly correlated with unstandardized ones (correlation coefficients ranged between 0.88 for MBzP to 0.99 for triclosan).
Standardized whole marijuana must be grown in a highly controlled manner, and distributed in such a way that the concentrations of its active components (specific cannabinoids) are maintained at a set, standardized level.
To standardize mRNA levels of each target gene, transcript levels of the housekeeping gene GAPDH were determined in parallel for each sample.
Subsequently, the measured radioactivity in all voxels was divided by the mean activity in the cerebellum (reference region) to standardize for levels of free tracer.
Predators were starved for 5 days prior to feeding trials to standardize hunger levels among individual predators.
Every first section at 200 µm distance in the rostro-caudal plan was stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H E) in order to standardize the levels to study.
