(12) During the carcinogens metabolism compounds are assumed to be formed, those are able to affect oxidative phosphorylation without forming any stable link with the respiratory chain components.
(13) It is assumed that the mild analgesia produced by acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and indomethacin is due to a common mode of action, namely inhibition of the cyclo-oxygenase reaction in the synthesis of prostaglandins.
(14) The periodic pattern was assumed as subclinical focal seizure discharges from the right anterior temporal deep structures.
(15) In doing so they are often supported by their parents who as well assume an ambivalent attitude towards therapy.
(16) We assume that the fragments have been assembled and address the problem of determining the degree to which the reconstructed sequence is free from errors, i.e., its accuracy.
(17) From the location and the timing, it is assumed that the antigen recognized by III15B8 functions in chromosome pairing at meiotic prophase.
(18) The immune genesis of the TINU syndrome is assumed.
(19) It is assumed that daily exposure averages of a worker are lognormally and independently distributed statistically.
(20) The bell-shaped dose-response curves observed after irradiation with either X rays or neutrons are explained by assuming simultaneous initial transforming events and cell inactivation with the data for cell inactivation at higher doses being in agreement with data reported for other strains of mice.
Imply
Definition:
(v. t.) To infold or involve; to wrap up.
(v. t.) To involve in substance or essence, or by fair inference, or by construction of law, when not include virtually; as, war implies fighting.
(v. t.) To refer, ascribe, or attribute.
Example Sentences:
(1) Our results suggest that the peripheral sensitivity to hypoxia declined more than that to CO2, implying a peripheral chemoreceptor origin for hypoxic ventilatory decline.
(2) The extreme quenching of the dioxetane chemiluminescence by both microsomes and phosphatidylcholine, as a model phospholipid, implies that despite the low quantum yield (approx.
(3) The number of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) producing IgM (spontaneous and pokeweed mitogen (PWM) stimulated) at the end of a seven day culture period was similar in PBC patients and control subjects while the amount of IgM synthesized (spontaneous and PWM stimulated) during this period was significantly greater in the patient group, implying that the amount of IgM produced per B cell was increased in PBC.
(4) The minimal change in gel fiber size caused by slow A release implies that fibrin fiber size is primarily a function of ionic environment and not of the sequence of peptide release.
(5) In contrast sham-hemodialysis in group CA and group PS, respectively, did not result in significant increases in amino acid efflux from the leg implying that the protein catabolic effect of blood membrane contact depends on the chemical properties of dialysis membranes.
(6) This implies that the epitope(s) of NNA-PLA2 might comprise some substituted residues in the sequence of PLA2 homologues.
(7) This light microscopic comparison of viable FDA- and nonviable PI-stained cysts of G. muris demonstrates that 2 types of cysts can be distinguished and implies that structural differences can be used to identify these subpopulations of cysts.

(9) This implies that these proteins are quantitatively absorbed from the peritoneum without undergoing modifications.
(10) These findings imply that if bleeding occurs following revascularization, in addition to the use of replacement blood products, treatment should be directed at reducing the consumptive coagulopathy and inhibiting fibrinolysis.
(11) The use of multifactorial experiment design, a model of infectious processes and immunomodulators alone or in combination with antibiotics is implied.
(12) The contents of magnesium, potassium and zinc plasma did not correlate with the corresponding concentrations in skeletal muscle or circulating blood cells, as investigated in healthy controls, diabetics and in all subjects together, implying that the plasma concentrations are not useful in the assessment of electrolyte status.
(13) Such cell-staining capacities of the carbohydrate directed antibodies imply the importance of glycoconjugate carbohydrates as cancer cell phenotypes.
