Among the most commonly used agents to control neuropathic pain is pregabalin, which has been validated in different clinical settings [14, 21, 22, 23], while celecoxib is a selective COX-2 inhibitor that has been proved to be effective in the treatment of different pain models that are considered predominantly of nociceptive origin [24, 25, 26].
Though the Torajans are considered predominantly Christian, they hold on to a large part of their ancestors' animist belief system especially when it comes to death and dying.
A transcript was considered expressed predominantly in a given tissue if its normalized expression signal was in the 25% highest (≥3rd quartile) and in the 50% lowest (< median) in all other tissues.
When more than one bone was involved, the bone predominantly involved was considered as the primary site.
Since micro-aggregates <250 μm are considered to predominantly protect soil organic matter in the long term pools, the impact of termites on C protection and nutrient cycling may be higher in Ferralsols than in Vertisols.
Diversity within each infection sample was assessed relative to the total population, with a lower FWS score indicating more diverse mixed genotype infections, and those with FWS > 0.95 were considered as predominantly single genotype infections (within which any possible additional unrelated genotypes must be at low frequency).
With respect to this study, the formation being considered is predominantly sandstone with an average porosity of approximately 0.26.
HC is considered a predominantly female headache [5, 7, 10] and mean age at symptoms onset is around 40 years [5, 7, 11, 12].
As previously described and validated [10], all segments for which the average FDG uptake was very low (<50% of the maximal voxel value) could be considered as predominantly necrotic, and the percentage of such segments was used to assess the extent of MI areas.
Traditionally, Expressionism has been considered a predominantly German movement of the early 20th century, but this sprawling exhibition makes a convincing argument that Expressionism was "born from a shared advance toward modernism among French and German artists".
