It is not clear whether this association is best expressed in terms of absolute dense area or percentage dense area (PDA).
We observed no overall effect of statin use on mammographic density in terms of absolute dense volume, although a larger absolute dense volume was observed in statin users who reported ever HRT use, which requires further investigation.
The fluidised bed behaviour is represented by a hydraulic model expressed in terms of the dense phase average bed density in both reactor and regenerator, vapour entrainment in the regenerator dilute phase, dilute phase bed density in the regenerator and dilute phase hold-up.
In conclusion, we found no strong evidence for an overall effect of statin use on volumetric mammographic density in terms of absolute dense volume.
Predicting long-term migration of dense non-aqueous phase liquids (DNAPLs) in subsurface systems is essential to determine appropriate remediation design for cleanup of subsurface contamination.
To test this possibility, cell growth rates and biomass yield were measured in the long-term cultivation of dense algal suspensions under high irradiance.
In terms of dense/non-dense areas of the breast, the effect of adult dietary pattern of high fat and sugar pattern was slightly attenuated when total energy intake was taken into account.
In layman's terms, the appearance of dense tissue can be thought of as being clouded with fibroglandular tissue.
Our study points to the dense flows (i.e., flows with densely clustered packets) as the correlation-causing factor in small time scales, and reveals that the traffic composition in terms of proportions of dense vs. sparse flows plays a major role in influencing the small-time scalings of aggregate traffic.
We give another characterization of a statistically bounded sequence in terms of its statistically dense subsequences as follows.
