(17) Thereafter, 27S species adsorbed avidly to it and collapsed into characteristic configurations containing four globular domains, each linked to the others by three approximately 33-nm struts.
(18) High avidity DNP-binding cells gave rise to predominantly high avidity anti-DNP-PFC.
(19) Firstly, FcRIII do not cluster lannic acid-modified erythrocytes avidly bound to neutrophils but did not trigger clustering of FcRII.
(20) The study has revealed a faintly pronounced inverse correlation between the degree of avidity of serum antibodies and the level of infectious antigenemia.
Sick
Definition:
(superl.) Affected with disease of any kind; ill; indisposed; not in health. See the Synonym under Illness.
(superl.) Affected with, or attended by, nausea; inclined to vomit; as, sick at the stomach; a sick headache.
(superl.) Having a strong dislike; disgusted; surfeited; -- with of; as, to be sick of flattery.
(1) Based on our results, we propose the following hypotheses for the neurochemical mechanisms of motion sickness: (1) the histaminergic neuron system is involved in the signs and symptoms of motion sickness, including vomiting; (2) the acetylcholinergic neuron system is involved in the processes of habituation to motion sickness, including neural store mechanisms; and (3) the catecholaminergic neuron system in the brain stem is not related to the development of motion sickness.
(2) The relationship between cold-insoluble complexes, or cryoglobulins, and renal disease was studied in rabbits with acute serum sickness produced with BSA.
(3) Decompression sickness and air embolism are medical emergencies.
(4) A total of 6 cases of sick sinus syndrome were presented, including 2 cases of sinoatrial (SA) block and 4 cases of bradycardia-tachycardia syndrome.
(5) Inner Ear Decompression Sickness (IEDCS)--manifested by tinnitus, vertigo, nausea, vomiting, and hearing loss--is usually associated with deep air or mixed gas dives, and accompanied by other CNS symptoms of decompression sickness (DCS).
(6) The regimen used at the Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, provides 2.0 to 2.5 gm protein per kilogram ideal body weight, plus adequate fluid and nutrient supplements.
(7) I am absolutely sick to the stomach that this iconic Australian news agency would attack the navy in the way that it has,” he said.
(8) This "first exposure" determines whether one views oneself as "sick" or changed.
(9) We suggest that sick districts can be affirmed on the basis of the total amount of fluoride intake, the prevalence rates of dental fluorosis, bad incomplete teeth, milk-teeth and the mean output of urinary fluoride between 8 and 15 years of age.
(10) Clarke varies the intensity of sessions but for most of the time it's go hard or go home: I've learned that neither more pain nor being sick are anything to be afraid of.
(11) Thus, carotid sinus massage and, to some extent, isoprenaline administration appear simple bedside tests which may be helpful in identifying the underlying mechanism of sick sinus syndrome.
(12) Rapid techniques were applied to study functional activity of peripheral blood phagocytes in acute sick patients and upon discharge.
(13) The questionnaires (Arthritis Impact Measurement Scales [AIMS], Functional Status Index [FSI], Health Assessment Questionnaire [HAQ], Index of Well Being [IWB], and Sickness Impact Profile [SIP]) were administered to 38 patients with end-stage arthritis at three points in time: two weeks before hip or knee arthroplasty, and at three-month and 12- to 15-month follow-up.
(14) The results from the first session indicated that the development of motion sickness was accompanied by increased EGG 4-9 cpm activity (gastric tachyarrhythmia), decreased mean successive differences of RRI, increased skin conductance levels, and increased self-motion perception.
(15) No sick or dead monkeys were found in all the forests checked around Entebbe area during the epizootic.

(17) In a Europe (including Britain) where austerity has become the economic dogma of the elite in spite of massive evidence that it is choking growth and worsening the very sickness it claims to heal, there are plenty of rational, sensible arguments for taking to the streets.
(18) There are no more operational hospitals and not a single ambulance to rescue the ever-growing number of wounded and sick.
(19) The aim of this study was to compare the predictive power of a simple illness severity score (Clinical Sickness Score) to that of APACHE II in a District General Hospital intensive therapy unit.
(20) This is confirmed by a slight inhibition of SLE target cell proliferation and the activating effect of immunoregulatory cells on the proliferation of "sick" targets.
