(13) For the 20 patients who received treatment in the latter period (1987-1990), we gave priority to conservative treatment for type T cases that were free from complications, and adopted a treatment method attaching greater importance to the resection of intimal tears.

(19) Characterization of the components released by alkaline hydrolysis indicated that O-glycosylated hydroxylysine residues are nonenzymatically N-glycated to the same extent as those without an enzymatically attached carbohydrate unit.
(20) A teaching package is described for teaching interview skills to large blocks of medical students whilst on their psychiatric attachment.
Blockage
Definition:
(n.) The act of blocking up; the state of being blocked up.
Example Sentences:
(1) The blockage of the tubular system by the calcium oxalate deposits leads to a temporary reversible increase in serum urea and serum creatinine.
(2) Instead, we discovered that the size of the basal cisterns around the brain stem enabled us to predict blockage earlier and more reliably.
(3) In some of the rabbits, a rise in antibody Level occurred without appearance of weakness, while it is still likely that AChR antibody could be necessary for the induction of neuromuscular blockage.
(4) If beta-blockage does not cause lowering of aqueous humor secretion, in itself responsible for the maintenance of intraocular pressure, what is the mechanism of action?
(5) Other characteristics of the LHP that were demonstrated include: a lack of blockage by GABAA receptor antagonists, a probable voltage sensitivity (decrease in amplitude in the depolarizing direction), and an apparent brief onset latency (less than 10 ms) when the early IPSP was blocked by picrotoxin.
(6) Furthermore, cycloheximide administered prior to or along with ACTH resulted in the blockage of any new transcription of the cytochrome P-450(11)beta gene as evidenced from the level of RNA.
(7) Speculatively, the blockage by dbcAMP of the morphogenetic cascade in the co-cultured system may be related to the inhibition by dbcAMP of testis cord formation in organ cultures of fetal gonads reported by others.
