At the time, some on Wall Street complained that he was passing up a potential shortcut to approval by not conducting midsized trials, or so-called phase-II trials (the second of three usual phases of trials).
The method provides a simple means of stability analysis in the frequency domain, instead of the usual phase plane method wherein the physical meaning of the different vibration modes is obscured.
Even including central analysis of key biomarkers, the trial will only cost 3 million euros, a fraction of the cost of the usual phase III pharmaceutical company trial.
For the maintenance CST or treatment as usual phase, an ANCOVA model was fitted for each of the follow up time points.
Different from the usual phase synchrony, it does not appear synchronous within some intervals of time but displays a global synchronous behavior.
The glass transition differs from a usual phase transition in several other key ways.
The overall lack of progress has occurred even though interest rates are pinned to the floor and despite the stimulus from big quantitative easing programmes in Britain and America.This suggests that something more fundamental has gone wrong than the usual down-phase of the business cycle.
At the Australian Transport Safety Bureau, meanwhile, it is business as usual: the current phase of the search, which began almost a year ago, is currently "sweeping" the ocean floor using sophisticated equipment capable of identifying larger pieces of debris at a depth of thousands of feet.
The phase shift characteristic function is shown to have better sensitivity for the two diffusivities than the usual out-of-phase characteristic function in the frequency response method.
Taken together, these results revealed a substantial up-regulation of CP43 phosphorylation in plant leaves subjected to long incubation in darkness, and were consistent with the increase of CP43 phosphorylation during night phase of usual photoperiod (Figure 3).
