(3) In 4 patients with neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinoses (NCL) (3 patients with the junvenile type, 1 patient with the late infantile type), the ultrastructural spectrum of residual bodies in the central and peripheral nervous system presented curvilinear profiles in all cases and regions investigated and many more ultrastructural patterns within and beyond regions commonly accessible to biopsy, probably due to age dependence, local tissue and cellular biochemical factors.
(4) VO2 in both styles curvilinearly increased with swimming velocity, and these relationships were well fitted for the regression equation of the second order (Br: y = 3.84625x2 - 1.95914x + 1.310463,r2 = 0.999 (p < 0.05), Fr: y = 3.233446x2 - 2.28136x + 1.611524, r2 = 0.979 (p < 0.05)).
(5) Electron micrographs of negatively stained hexamers show a characteristic curvilinear, equilateral triangle of 12 nm in diameter (top view) and a rectangle measuring 10 x 12 nm (side view).
(6) Repeated analyses of identical tracks across grey level revealed a statistical interaction between grey settings and curvilinear velocity.
(7) Ultrastructural studies of Aeromonas hydrophila strain AH26 revealed two distinctive pilus types: "straight" pili appear as brittle, rod-like filaments, whereas "flexible" pili are supple and curvilinear.
(8) A similar plot for amygdalin was curvilinear, with the rate of cyanide release increasing with time.
(9) Fractionation procedures performed on single cell preparations document large meshworks of long and curvilinear IF by negative stain.
(10) The rate-torque curves for most of these cells were curvilinear (plateau occurred at heavy torque loads), although some cells showed a linear relationship.
(11) The dose-response relationship between virus and antibody titre was curvilinear, the steepest part of the slope being in the lower range.
(12) Age was related to Ho scores in a curvilinear fashion: higher scores in the youngest and oldest age groups than in the middle-aged groups (p = .025).
(13) Such a method to calculate elastance and curvilinear resistance should prove convenient and efficient in measuring respiratory mechanics during mechanical ventilation.
(14) A curvilinear shift with age was found in the first trust factor and was attributed to post-retirement experiences in middle-old age and a form of generativity in very old age.
(15) When EDTA was present in the homogenization medium the curve obtained was of simpler, curvilinear type showing an increased activity at temperatures above 20 degrees C. The Na+-K+ ATPase activity in similar preparation from adult brain were not complex but curvilinear whether EDTA was used or not; however, EDTA increased the activity at temperatures above 20 degrees C. When such chelating agents as EDTA or histidine were used in preparation of microsomes from immature rat brain, the temperature dependence curve of Na+-K+ ATPase in this membrane fraction was changed to a steeper and simpler curve with increased activity especially at temperatures above 20 degrees.
(16) The reduced atrial contribution during increased preload was explained by the curvilinear shape of the LV pressure-volume curve.
(17) At autopsy, the retina had severe loss of photoreceptor cells, pigment displacement, gliosis, and uniformly structured lipopigment bodies with an internal structure of curvilinear profiles in ganglionic and Müller cells, in pigment epithelia, in the remaining photoreceptors, and in the elements of the inner nuclear layer.
(18) Major parenchymal features seen at CT included thickened intralobular and interlobular lines, subpleural curvilinear lines, pleural-based nodular irregularities, hazy patches of increased attenuation, small cystic spaces, and small areas of low attenuation.
(19) Three of the four examples showed a curvilinear function and the other a linear relationship relative to sample thickness.
(20) However, for peripheral blood monocytes and two GM-CSF-responsive myeloid cell lines (U-937 and TF-1), the Scatchard plots were biphasic curvilinear, which were best fit by curves derived from two binding site model: one with high affinity (Kd1 = 10-40 pM) and the other with low affinity (Kd2 = 0.9-2.0 nM).
