(20) It is associated with poor neurological outcome and may be an entry point for trials of interventions aiming sat blocking the translation of asphyctic injury to cellular death and tissue damage.
Asphyxia
Definition:
(n.) Alt. of Asphyxy
Example Sentences:
(1) Multivariate analysis of high risk factors associated with increased risk of asphyxia showed that low birth weight was the most significant predictor of asphyxia: asphyxia occurred in 68% of infants of less than 1,000 g birth weight and decreased to 1.2% in infants of 3-4 kg birth weight.
(2) Indications for the correction of acidosis in asphyxia are proposed.
(3) After the completion of rejection reaction, inflammation finally induced scarring or necrosis of the tracheal allograft, resulting in asphyxia or perforation.
