(2) Rigidly fixing the pubic symphysis stiffened the model and resulted in principal stress patterns that did not reflect trabecular density or orientations as well as those of the deformable pubic symphysis model.
(3) Cloacal exstrophy, centered on the maldevelopment of the primitive streak mesoderm and cloacal membrane, results in bladder and intestinal exstrophy, omphalocele, gender confusion, and hindgut deformity.
(4) In a family with hereditary elliptocytosis and an abnormality in spectrin self-association, the membranes had decreased deformability and stability.
(5) The most important causal factor, well illustrated by pressure studies, was the presence of a dynamic or static deformity leading to local areas of peak pressure on insensitive skin.
(6) Predominantly observed defects included neural crest cells in ectopic locations, both within and external to the neural tube, and mildly deformed neural tubes containing some dissociating cells.
(7) Emergency CT showed evidence of pericardial effusion suggesting hemopericardium, enlargement of the ascending aorta and a peripheral semilunar filling defect which caused a slight deformation of the true channel.

(9) A model for left ventricular diastolic mechanics is formulated that takes into account noneligible wall thickness, incompressibility, finite deformation, nonlinear elastic effects, and the known fiber architecture of the ventricular wall.
(10) As a consequence of deformation from spherical-to-cylindrical shape in the microvasculature, demands for increased surface membrane area leads to increases in surface membrane tension above critical levels for rupture, and the cancer cells are rapidly and lethally damaged.
(11) Within the restriction provided by surface area and volume, the intrinsic properties of the membrane and cytoplasm determine the deformability characteristics of the red cell.

(13) Filtration of red blood cells through agarose gels (Sephadex, Sepharose, and Superose) was used to assess red cell deformability and simultaneously obtain fractions of red cells with different properties.
(14) Such deformities may be the only future indication for the use of this operation as these knees do not do well when treated by tibial osteotomy.
(15) Richard now is presented, albeit somewhat inconsistently, as evil in response to social ostracism because of his ugly deformities.
(16) Calcium-dependent ATPase, adenylate cyclase and phosphorylation of erythrocyte membrane proteins have been found abnormal in various conditions: hereditary spherocytosis, sickle-cell anemia, progressive muscular dystrophies, all of these disorders being associated with a decreased deformability of the erythrocyte.
(17) Thus many athletes sustain dental-related injuries resulting in deformity and discomfort which may persist throughout their lives.

(19) This procedure was done in 4 patients and corrected the deformity efficiently, allowing for satisfactory sexual function.
(20) Angiography was performed on 74 hands of 70 patients in this series, and attempts were made to correlate these with the types of the deformities.
