While it is not completely clear whether the aggregates are the cause or merely a reflection of the loss of protein homeostasis, the balance between synthesis, folding, aggregation and protein turnover, the recent European Medicines Agency approval of Tafamidis or Vyndaqel ( a kinetic stabilizer of tetrameric transthyretin ) for the treatment of the transthyretin amyloid diseases suggests that it is the process of amyloid fibril formation and not the fibrils themselves that causes the degeneration of post-mitotic tissue in human amyloid diseases.

While kerosene has lower specific impulse, its higher density results in smaller structures, which implies less loss to atmospheric drag.

While Clark's 1976 leadership rivals were prominent in that province, Claude Wagner had left politics and recently died, while Brian Mulroney was still bitter about his loss and turned down an offer to serve under Clark.

While developments looked positive for a while, an IMF staff team visiting Buenos Aires in August 1983 discovered a variety of problems, particularly a loss of control over wages affecting both the budget and external competitiveness, and the programme failed.

While the 6x86's integer performance was significantly higher than P5 Pentium's, it's floating point performance was more mediocre — between 2 and 4 times the performance of the 486 FPU per clock cycle ( depending on the operation and precision ).

While a digital display can easily be extended in precision, the extra digits are of no value if not accompanied by care in the design and calibration of the analog portions of the multimeter.

While theoretically capable of peaking at about 60-80 MFLOPS for both single precision and double precision for the XP versions, hand-coded assemblers managed to get only about up to 40 MFLOPS, and most compilers had difficulty getting even 10 MFLOPs.

( 3 ) While the accuracy of a double path interferometer is dependent on the precision with which the reference element is figured, careful design enables the generated reference beam of the PDI to be of guaranteed precision.

While in terms of functional analysis such problems are typically continuous, they may suffer from numerical instability when solved with finite precision, or with errors in the data.

The available evidence suggests that the Hypericum extracts tested in the included trials a ) are superior to placebo in patients with major depression ; b ) are similarly effective as standard antidepressants ; and c ) have fewer side-effects than standard antidepressants. There are two issues that complicate the interpretation of our findings: 1 ) While the influence of precision on study results in placebo-controlled trials is less pronounced in this updated version of our review compared to the previous version ( Linde 2005a ), results from more precise trials still show smaller effects over placebo than less precise trials. 2 ) Results from German-language countries are considerably more favourable for Hypericum than trials from other countries.

While they are difficult to date with precision, the texts of the Corpus were likely redacted between the 1st and 3rd centuries CE.

While voxels provide the benefit of precision and depth of reality, they are typically large data sets and are unwieldy to manage given the bandwidth of common computers.

While the concept of a travelling slit shutter is simple, a modern FP shutter is a computerized microsecond accurate timer, governing sub-gram masses of exotic materials, subjected to hundreds of g's acceleration, moving with micron precision, choreographed with other camera systems for 100, 000 + cycles.

While this may conceivably be coincidental, the precision of the alignment suggests an intentional positioning of the structures in relation to each other.

While relatively simple in design, these saws are highly evolved and capable of efficient and precision work.

While the computer science community initially perceived the context as a matter of user location, as Dey discuss, in the last few years this notion has been considered not simply as a state, but part of a process in which users are involved ; thus, sophisticated and general context models have been proposed ( see survey ), to support context-aware applications which use them to ( a ) adapt interfaces, ( b ) tailor the set of application-relevant data, ( c ) increase the precision of information retrieval, ( d ) discover services, ( e ) make the user interaction implicit, or ( f ) build smart environments.

While outcomes can usually be measured with a great degree of precision, it is much more difficult to measure the intangible nature of opportunities.

While dbx Type-II NR was eventually designed into a self-contained LSI chip, it was never cheap due to the extremely high precision required of the dbx VCAs and the RMS signal analysis, leading to further reluctance of manufacturers to use the dbx chips in their products.

While some level of control was possible, no precision could be achieved, and a landing under these conditions was stated to be " a highly random event ".

While it can be more expensive to maintain than traditional spring-actuated valve systems, many aftermarket precision machined components can extend the maintenance interval to that of spring actuated systems ( in comparable motorcycles ).

While bc can work with arbitrary precision, it actually defaults to zero digits after the decimal point-so the expression 2 / 3 yields 0.

While the traditional thin crossing lines are the original and still the most familiar cross-hair shape, they are really best suited for precision aiming at high contrast targets, as the thin lines are easily lost in complex backgrounds, such as those encountered while hunting.

While completing a change at speed can improve one's score, precision is the most important factor in judging: A horse taking more than one stride to complete the change, or a horse that changes early, late, or that changes only the front feet and not the hind feet will be penalized.
