What's the difference between custos and guardian?
Custos
Definition:
(n.) A keeper; a custodian; a superintendent.
Example Sentences:
(1) In addition, the oscillatory resistance was also determined by means of the custo vit (Customed), the frequency of the pump producing the oscillation being variable so that measurements were carried out successively at different frequencies.
(2) With the aim of determining the significance of the principle of the multi-frequency forced oscillation technique employed by the custo vit to determine the airway resistance, measurements were performed on a number of test subjects, employing a unit available with three different software modifications.
(3) The forced oscillation technique employing the custo vit and the use of a facemask under conditions of normal breathing is, accordingly, a reliable method for determining nasal resistance.
(4) The differences in comparison with other methods are critically examined, and proposals made for a further improvement of the forced oscillation technique employed by the custo vit.
(5) Measurements were performed using a device manufactured by the firm of Custo, which makes possible the direct determination of oscillatory pressure and alternating flow at the mouth.
(6) The correlation of the data of the nasal and bronchial resistance is significant between custo vit on the one hand, and the Siregnost FD 5 and rhinometry on the other.
(7) In order to be able to estimate the diagnostic relevance and comparability of the impedance curves R(f) and X(f), their form-specific characteristics R = R(5)-R(20) and X(5), as also the equipment-specific parameters Ros (Siregnost FD5) and Rfo (custo vit), the relationships of these oscillatory parameters to Raw and CL were simulated in a structural model of the respiratory system, and tested in the real system.
(8) Initial measurements with the custo vit suggest that the used reference resistance in the FD 5 is responsible for this.
(9) A differentiation of healthy subjects from patients with low-grade obstruction by means of the FD 5, requires the establishment of the phase angle (phi), too, while in the case of the custo vit unit, this is possible by demonstrating the frequency dependence of the impedance.
(10) Forced oscillation measurements of airway resistance employing the custo vit and Siregnost FD 5, the interruptor technique and classical rhinomanometry for the measurement of nasal resistance, were compared.
(11) In addition, the oscillatory resistance was determined with the custo vit unit (Customed), the frequency of the pump generating the oscillation being selectable (Ros2), so that successive measurements were made at different frequencies.
(12) It was also confirmed that the phase angles, also obtainable with the custo vit, play a considerable role in the significant differentiation of the degree of obstruction.
(13) The custo vit is available in different technical versions.
(14) In the case of the measurement of the airway resistance with the custo vit at resonance frequency, a poorer differentiation between normal subjects and patients with obstruction was obtained as compared with measurements made at a fixed frequency of 6 Hz.
(15) At slight and moderate elevations in bronchial flow resistance, a better agreement was found between the custo vit resistance figure and body plethysmography.
(16) When measuring the airway resistance with the custo vit at the frequency of resonance there was poorer differentiation between normal and obstructed subjects compared to a measurement at a fixed frequencies yielded comparable values for both methods.
Guardian
Definition:
(v. t.) One who guards, preserves, or secures; one to whom any person or thing is committed for protection, security, or preservation from injury; a warden.
(v. t.) One who has, or is entitled to, the custody of the person or property of an infant, a minor without living parents, or a person incapable of managing his own affairs.
(a.) Performing, or appropriate to, the office of a protector; as, a guardian care.

(2) Photograph: Guardian The research also compiled data covered by a wider definition of tax haven, including onshore jurisdictions such as the US state of Delaware – accused by the Cayman islands of playing "faster and looser" even than offshore jurisdictions – and the Republic of Ireland, which has come under sustained pressure from other EU states to reform its own low-tax, light-tough, regulatory environment.
(3) In a separate exclusive interview , Alexis Tsipras, the increasingly powerful 37-year-old Greek politician now regarded by many as holding the future of the euro in his hands, told the Guardian that he was determined "to stop the experiment" with austerity policies imposed by Germany.
(4) Another Guardian podcast, Days in the Life, won silver in the same category.
(5) Guardian Australia reported last week that morale at the national laboratory had fallen dramatically, with one in three staff “seriously considering” leaving their jobs in the wake of the cuts.
(6) Photograph: Gareth Phillips for the Guardian Because health is devolved, the Welsh government can do things differently from England.
(7) The New York Times, which shared the files with the Guardian and US National Public Radio, said it did not obtain them from WikiLeaks.
(8) Documents seen by the Guardian show that blood supplies for one fiscal year were paid for by donations from America’s Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA) and Britain’s Department for International Development (DfID) – and both countries have imposed economic sanctions against the Syrian government.
(9) A spokesman for Hunt told Guardian Australia: "We have been deeply respectful of the process and will continue to be so."
(10) Photograph: Christopher Thomond for the Guardian I don’t know how much my parents paid for their home but in 1955 the average house price for the whole country was £1,891.
(11) Responding to a “We the People” petition, launched after Snowden’s initial leaks were published in the Guardian two years ago, the Obama administration on Tuesday reiterated its belief that he should face criminal charges for his actions.
(12) The Guardian has a mortgage advice service, provided by London & Country
(13) The Guardian neglects to mention 150,000 privately owned guns or that Palestinians are banned from bearing arms.
(14) Private landowners are able to use property guardians to minimise their tax bills and, although it is hard to estimate, the potential financial loss to councils is substantial.
(15) UPDATE II [Tues.] Two other items that may be of interest: first, Guardian editor-in-chief Alan Rusbridger was the guest for the full hour yesterday on Democracy Now, discussing the paper's role in reporting the NSA stories, and the video and transcript of the interview are here ; second, marking our collaboration on a series of articles about spying on Indians, the Hindu has a long interview with me on a variety of related topics, here .
