The well-known theory of increased entanglement density by branching for polymers in the melt can also be applied to polymers in the semi-dilute water solutions.
Although, arterial hypertension has been reported as a risk factor for developing TN based on the theory of increased arterial tortuosity and pulse pressure, little or no epidemiologic data exist to validate this concept.
However, cross-sectional analysis of drinking behaviour is vulnerable to selection bias: unobserved heterogeneity across individuals may explain why some vulnerable individuals self-select into an at-risk college environment, as predicted by the theory of increased heterogeneity [ 2].
That some skin tumours are due to papilloma virus infections could lend support to a theory of increased virus activity/effects in individuals exposed to estrogens as is the case in cervical carcinoma and its virus related carcinogenesis due to papilloma virus [ 20].
Instead, he explains the fact that nuclear war was avoided by reference to the superior judgment of Kennedy and Khrushchev, who had "an intuitive grasp of game theory" – an example of increasing rationality in history, Pinker believes.
However, contrary to filler siphoning theory, the impact of increasing the number of fillers beyond three did not affect discriminability (the distance of the ROC above the chance diagonal); rather, it truncated the ROC curves (because fillers are being selected instead of innocent or guilty suspects).
The first theory, that of increased production of cerebrospinal fluid, was proposed in early descriptions of the disease.
Previous observations support this theory: markers of increased lifetime estrogen exposure are associated with higher breast cancer risk [ 11], higher BMD [ 12- 14], and higher mammographic breast density [ 15, 16].
For some works in the theory of weakly increasing mappings, we refer the reader to [23, 24].
