How can you use “brachial” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

To further investigate some recently proposed multiple testing schemes, we compared the performance of two approaches, SAM and Westfall and Young step down adjusted p values, as applied to a microarray study of gene expression in a brachial plexus injury.
In the comparison of expression levels of more than 5000 probe sets between normal subjects and brachial plexus injury patients, we adopt both SAM and Westfall & Young algorithms using regular t statistics assuming equal variances and t statistics assuming unequal variances (hereafter called Welch statistics).
Firstly, it is based solely on the brachial plexus injury data which, in turn, is limited by small sample sizes (10 injured patients and 3 controls).
Blood pressure is measured from the left brachial artery (if attainable) with a sphygmomanometer, with the patient sitting upright.
Given that many genes are likely to be irrelevant to the biological processes underlying the brachial plexus injuries and hence are expected to show little difference in their expression levels between injured patients and control subjects, it is not surprising that no significant result was obtained for t -SAM when applying the complete data set.
