Dissemination


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of disseminating, or the state of being disseminated; diffusion for propagation and permanence; a scattering or spreading abroad, as of ideas, beliefs, etc.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Disseminated CMV infection with multiorgan involvement was evident in 7 of 9 at postmortem examination.
  • (2) Suggested is a carefully prepared system of cycling videocassettes, to effect the dissemination of current medical information from leading medical centers to medical and paramedical people in the "bush".
  • (3) Evidence is presented in support of the hypothesis that fresh bat guano serves as a means of pathogenic fungi dissemination in caves.
  • (4) Two cases are presented of bilateral ureteral obstruction and uremia due to pressure from nodes involved in disseminated lymphoma.
  • (5) Health information dissemination is severely complicated by the widespread stigma associated with digestive topics, manifested in the American public's general discomfort in communicating with others about digestive health.
  • (6) On the other hand, the injection of minute quantities of endotoxin into PbAc(2)-sensitized rats invariably resulted in disseminated intravascular coagulation, apparently via a complete activation of the intrinsic pathway.
  • (7) Seven patients have not shown evidence of dissemination, and five are alive 1--15 years (median 9 years) after diagnosis.
  • (8) Calculations were made to test whether the hypothesis of a multistep dissemination of the tumour from the primary site was likely.
  • (9) The skin lesions resembled disseminated subacute lupus erythematosus on clinical examination, but actinic granuloma or annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma was seen in biopsy specimens of the lesions.
  • (10) Among 137 consecutive patients who had a sterile body site cultured for mycobacteria within 3 months of their first AIDS-defining episode of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, median survival was significantly shorter in those with disseminated MAC infection (107 days; 95% confidence interval [CI] 55-179) than those with negative cultures (275 days; 95% CI 230-318; P less than .01), even after controlling for age, absolute lymphocyte count, and hemoglobin concentration.
  • (11) Acyclovir is commonly used for suppression and treatment of recurrent genital herpes simplex virus and may be indicated for pregnant women with disseminated herpes.
  • (12) A more regular distribution of these mites on the animals points to the mixing of the mites population that effects the dissemination of agents.

  • (15) Splenomegaly in recipient mice suggested systemic dissemination of the local GvHR.
  • (16) Although the follow-up period is still short, the combined treatment of radiation and pre-radiation chemotherapy appears to be an effective treatment, and has made a major impact upon survival time in cases of disseminated esophageal carcinoma.
  • (17) A careful study of recurrences after operation, their localization, provides evidence for regarding that 6.9% had primary-multiple, combined, and disseminated affections.
  • (18) Immune complexes formed in vivo were also purified by conglutinin column from the serum of a patient with disseminated leishmaniasis.
  • (19) Spinal changes in 13 cases included vacuolar myelopathy (7 cases), HIV myelitis (1 case) and ganglio-radiculitis (1 cases), cytomegalovirus myelo-radiculitis (1 case) secondary spread from a lymphoma (1 case) and spinal infarcts due to disseminated intravascular coagulation (1 case).
  • (20) This cytotoxic regimen, which has been well tolerated, may prove valuable in the management of disseminated carcinoid tumours.
