Additionally, research with adults suggests that whilst percentages are often used when discussing treatment options [ 66], they can be poorly understood [ 27, 71].
Whilst often still used as a last line treatment when other therapies have failed, manuka honey is broad spectrum with potent bactericidal activity.
Whilst surface form is often used as a criterion for separating sedimentary units, morphostratigraphy also usually incorporates lithological criteria to aid stratigraphical subdivision, and morpho- and lithostratigraphy are often interlinked in Quaternary science.
Whilst homogenous cohorts are often used in experimental osteoarthritis studies, client-owned dogs represent a more heterogeneous, but more clinically relevant, population for longitudinal veterinary treatment studies.
Whilst conceptualisations vary, frailty is often used in clinical practice as a directional term, to refer to older people at particular risk of adverse health outcomes and to organise care.
Until recent years (early 2000s) when indie rock became the most common term in the US to describe modern pop and rock, the terms "indie rock" and "alternative rock" were often used interchangeably; whilst there are aspects which both genres have in common, indie rock was regarded as a British-based term, unlike the more American alternative rock.
Whilst linear standard curves are often used as calibration curves, a recent study has suggested an approach utilising a sigmoidal function to model fluorescence data as an alternative, in order to increase the reliability of RT-QPCR measurements [ 22].
Whilst Reder's formula is often used in computational applications, it assumes that a certain matrix is invertible; this may not be true, especially if some reference reaction rates are zero.
This initial survey across London demonstrates that whilst commonly used antimicrobial agents are often used with TDM to guide therapy, there is still large variation in the range of antimicrobials for which TDM is available.
Most understood the BMI measure was a weight-related measure, but whilst relating it to weight they often used words which revealed their uncertainty: I'm not really terribly sure exactly what it [BMI] means.
