Baseline IOS and standard spirometric maneuvers were performed in accordance with American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society standards.(23) Percent predicted normal values of spirometry (best of 3 repeated maneuvers) were used for later analyses.
Sample text:```The items are internally consistent and reproducible and the questionnaire may therefore be considered to have at least as favourable levels of reliability as clinical scores used to assess outcomes (Koran 1975).```

Sample text:```Apical color M-mode recordings were obtained at a depth of 16 to 18 cm and a Nyquist limit of 18 to 25 cm/s (15).```

Sample text:```After 50 min of acclimatization and cardiovascular recordings, measurements of the respiratory frequency (Rf) were also performed by using the whole-body plethysmography method (20).```

Sample text:```The next communication [2] considered the most general characteristics of the parameter of spa tial EEG synchronization (the average in each of the fre quency bands of the EEG’s coherence value), such as multiplicity, directedness, and reproducibility of varia tions of this parameter owing to the change of state of the subjects.```

Sample text:```These are in keeping with earlier studies on the steadystate response (2, 5, 8), step-function response, (3, 5, 6, 14) and sinusoidal response ( 14) of the various vascular beds.```

Sample text:```Eight of the included studies examined the history of changes made to each registry record in order to compare published outcomes with the primary outcome as stated in the registry at either the time of study initiation or prior to completion of enrollment [7, 16, 20, 22, 24, 30, 31, 36].```

Sample text:```Determination of MAP
 During a preliminary experiment, MAP was determined using the same procedure as has been previously described (Gamet et al. 1993).```
Sample intent: background



Sample text:```Pre- and post-test1 both included measurements of the S-reflex, M-wave, and H-reflex, followed by an MVC. S-reflex testing was performed at 0 , as in the study by Avela et al. (1999).```
