Previously, we published a variance formula for the corrected slope, when the correction factor is the slope in the regression of the second measurement on the first. In this paper we show that both designs improve by maximum likelihood estimation (MLE). The precision gain is explained by the...
There is accumulating evidence that vitamin D deficiency may be an important factor in the development of congestive heart failure and sudden cardiac death[38]. In chronic hemodialysis patients, calcitriol supplementation is associated with reduction of cardiac hypertrophy and a reduction of QT ...
A scaling factor of 0.95 was applied to the harmonic wavenumbers. This preliminary analysis already shows how the choice of the DFT exchange–correlation functional can affect the prediction of vibrational spectra. Because it primarily depends on the relative orientation of the transition moments of ...
The nuclear factor of activated T cells-5 (NFAT5), also known as tonicity-responsive enhancer binding protein, was initially identified in the kidney medulla as a central regulator of cellular response to ambient hypertonicity [[37], [38], [39]]. In macrophages, NFAT5 is reported to be ac...

The test involves the measurement insulin-like growth factor-I and the amino-terminal pro-peptide of type III collagen (P-III-NP) which increase in a dose-dependent manner in response to GH. These measurements are combined in sex specific formulae that include an age adjustment. The original...
