Susceptibility models identified regional gradients in environmental stress, with the north-western Indian Ocean and some central Indian Ocean Islands as high and the southern African coastline and islands east of Madagascar as low vulnerability regions.
These are all well-preserved, isolated, and low vulnerability regions.
The visual relationship between radon thresholds and temporal lung cancer mortality trends was assessed by comparing the annual ratio of lung cancer mortality to all natural mortality in high and low vulnerability regions.
The water resources are scarce, adding to vulnerability of region towards climate change.
This raises the question of whether the loss in dual phosphorylated AKT exacerbates vulnerability of region CA1 with advanced age.
VAM uses a range of monitoring indicators including satellite imagery of rainfall and crops and food prices in local markets to establish the vulnerability of regions in a country to food deficit (WFP 2005).
Although our map shows differences in heat vulnerability between regions of the country, it also highlights the higher vulnerability within the downtowns of metropolitan areas.
Greater NOS activity in core regions could explain in part the increased vulnerability of that region to ischemic damage and could theoretically contribute to the progression of the infarct over time [ 50].
These data enabled us to investigate how intrinsic connectivity in health predicts region-by-region vulnerability to disease.
