Other limitations include potential bias in self-reported use of supplements and the lack of a well defined regimen for vitamin content, dose, and time of use.
In these studies, mice were immunized subcutaneously with soluble antigen and adjuvant using well-defined doses and injection regimens: (i) one bolus dose, (ii) regularly spaced, equivalent doses, (iii) regular injections with exponentially decreasing doses, or (iv) regular injections with exponentially increasing doses (Fig. 4a).
In contrast, previous studies were either single case reports, small case series or failed to use a well-defined, consistent single-agent treatment regimen with homogeneous triamcinolone dosage throughout the study cohort.
Postoperatively, the patients were transferred to the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) and then to a specialized knee and hip arthroplasty unit with a well-defined multimodal fast-track rehabilitation regimen (Husted et al. 2008).
Therefore, strictly localized delivery regimens at well-defined kinetics appear to be logical prerequisites to assure safe and efficacious therapeutic use of such factors and avoid unwanted side effects and toxicity, a major hurdle in the clinical development of growth factor therapies so far.
(1)– (3) However, the optimal dose of RT required to palliate symptoms has not been well-defined, and trials comparing different regimens have reported the conflicting results with respect to symptom palliation, survival, and QoL.

He smiles and flexes his large, well-defined muscles, as the announcer extols the virtues of Insanity, the regimen he claims to have used to achieve this level of fitness.
Further well-defined, prospective trials in this important patient population are required to identify optimal treatment regimens.
This is the first study to examine the association between various PI-based regimens and cardiac autonomic function in a large unselected cohort from a well-defined diverse population of HIV-infected individuals.
