Absolute figures are better than percentages.
Atherosclerotic disease of the vascular system is a continuum. Disease may begin early in life, but it does not become clinically overt until atherosclerotic plaques reach a critical stage. The clinical manifestations of the disease are related to the impairment of tissue perfusion caused by the growth of the plaque inside the lumen of the vessel, causing impairment of blood flow and symptoms s...
متن کاملBars and pies make better desserts than figures.
In a previous article on figures (1 ) I discussed line graphs and scattergrams, 2 of the most widely used approaches for presenting data and results in scientific papers. In line graphs and scattergrams, each axis is of a continuous variable. For example, the x axis may show a continuous range of phenytoin doses, and the y axis may show the corresponding range of the resulting serum phenytoin c...
متن کاملTwo Are Better than One?
This paper uses Markov-switching specifications to create a hybrid model with time-varying loading on each of chartist and fundamentalist approaches. The empirical data include the U.S. dollar exchange rates of four Asian tiger countries’ currencies including NTD, SGD, HKD and KOW from 1980 to 2000. Our empirical findings are consistent with the following notions. First, the forecasting perform...
متن کاملWhen two kinases are better than one
When two kinases are better than one V idal-Eychenié et al. describe how two protein kinases team up to respond to DNA damage at stalled replication forks. DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs) promotes the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) by nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ). The ATR kinase, on the other hand, initiates cell cycle arrest and DNA repair after recogni...
متن کاملSome Multiobjective Optimizers are Better than Others
The No-Free-Lunch (NFL) theorems hold for general multiobjective fitness spaces, in the sense that, over a space of problems which is closed under permutation, any two algorithms will produce the same set of multiobjective samples. However, there are salient ways in which NFL does not generally hold in multiobjective optimization. Previously we have shown that a ‘free lunch’ can arise when comp...
