Systematic grid sampling is recommended when : a site is suspected to be heterogeneous and there is little background information known to guide sampling[. It] is also recommended when the data are to be used for geostatistical modelling to generate biological response maps of the site. 1, record 1, English, - systematic%20grid%20sampling

L'échantillonnage systématique en grille est recommandé dans les cas suivants: le site est présumé hétérogène et il existe peu d'information documentaire pour orienter l'échantillonnage [...] On conseille aussi de procéder à un échantillonnage systématique en grille lorsque les données doivent être utilisées pour cartographier, au moyen de la modélisation géostatistique, la réponse biologique in situ. 1, record 1, French, - %C3%A9chantillonnage%20syst%C3%A9matique%20en%20grille

If [we] look at the phenomenon of labour supply and the people already working in the labour force, it is true that the taxes levied on them do not have much effect on their incentive to work. We are not able to explain much of their behaviour or the economic phenomena as a result of changes in incentives. However, incentives still do matter for various sub-segments of the labour force. There is something labour economists call a heterogeneous response wherein not everyone responds to incentives and changes in incentives in the same way as far as their labour market behaviour and decisions. 1, record 2, English, - heterogeneous%20response

A heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by hypogamma-globulinemia, decreased antibody production in response to antigenic challenge, and recurrent pyogenic infections, and often associated with hematologic and autoimmune disorders. Most patients have normal numbers of circulating B cells but lack plasma cells, and are thus thought to have an intrinsic defect of B cell differentiation. Many also have T cell defects and exhibit cutaneous energy to recall antigens. 1, record 3, English, - common%20variable%20immunodeficiency

Hypogammaglobulinémie à expression variable. On regroupe sous ce terme des déficits immunitaires très fréquents, en général non héréditaires, ayant en commun un abaissement de la concentration des Ig sériques (variables selon la classe), contrastant avec un taux normal de cellules B dans le sang. L'atteinte des cellules T est variable selon les patients mais en règle générale modeste. Les cellules B sont incapables de se différencier en plasmocytes en présence de pokeweed. 1, record 3, French, - hypogammaglobulin%C3%A9mie%20%C3%A0%20expression%20variable
