(1) The new index distinguished 19 of 23 patients with pulmonary hypertension, with one false positive, when the divisor was actual lung volume; when predicted lung volume was used 18 of 23 patients were distinguished, again with one false positive result.
(2) The common divisor for interectopic intervals, ectopic complex interpolation, P-Q and Q-T intervals of the main complex and the presence of a wave on the ascending or descending slope of the R wave in sinus QRS complex were determined.
(3) The residual mean-square errors (the divisor being four less than the number of data points, since four parameters are estimated) seem to be unbiased estimators of the variances of the errors.
(4) The number of physically acceptable solutions for a given N is omega(N) + 1, where omega(N) is the number of divisors of N. The ground-state energy and entropy for these are calculated.
Quotient
Definition:
(n.) The number resulting from the division of one number by another, and showing how often a less number is contained in a greater; thus, the quotient of twelve divided by four is three.
(n.) The result of any process inverse to multiplication. See the Note under Multiplication.
Example Sentences:
(1) Heart rate (HR), pulmonary ventilation (V), oxygen consumption (VO2), carbon dioxide production (VCO2), and respiratory quotient (RQ) were measured.
(2) In the present study, respirometric quotients, the ratio of oral air volume expended to total volume expended, were obtained using separate but simultaneous productions of oral and nasal airflow.
(3) The IgG index (formula: see text) corrects for the influence of serum protein abnormalities as well as a bloodbrain barrier damage and is, therefore, a better measure for the presence of an IgG elevation in CSF due to IgG synthesis, when compared with other IgG quotients commonly used.
(4) Median developmental quotient (Griffiths scales) was 100 in the treated group and 95 in the control group (P = 0.053).
(5) Normal scores in psychomotor tests and normal intelligence quotients (I.Q.)
(6) Specific formulas of TPN for COPD patients, using lipids for calories and limiting glucose, lower the respiratory quotient.
(7) Intelligence quotients (IQs) improved in all seven children tested (mean improvement of 17.7%, p less than 0.01) and correlated significantly with reductions in CSF protein concentration (r = -0.85, p = 0.003).
(8) The induction of irreversible renal damage by 6 weeks of obstruction was associated with (i) a nearly total absence of alpha-ketoglutarate utilization; (ii) a markedly decreased amount of oxygen utilization and carbon dioxide production; (iii) a normal respiratory quotient; and (iv) a nearly total absence of citrate production.
(9) Physical growth and psychoeducational and school performance test scores were similar for the three bronchopulmonary dysplasia study groups with the exception of lower intelligence quotient for those receiving supplemental oxygen for the longest time.
(10) Following recovery, the receptivity expressed as the lordosis quotient was controlled in the presence of a sexually active male.
(11) Carbohydrate loading in excess of the patient's calorie need, as indicated by the respiratory quotient (RQ) greater than 1.0, results in fat synthesis and other energy-costing processes.
(12) The intelligence quotients showed declining trends with time.
(13) Moreover, resting metabolic rate and respiratory quotient were also identical in android and gynoid obese women, indicating that there was no intergroup difference in the absolute level of lipid oxidation.
(14) Ultrasonographic and scintigraphic measurements of the spleen, platelet counts, transfusion quotient and 51 Cr-labelled red cell survival were used to evaluate the effects of these two methods.
(15) is not to be considered as a disease but rather as a psychic handicap in the domains of the intellect, action and affect, which psychosocial expression is determined by the importance of the disorder, the environment, the intelligence quotient, the tolerance of the relative and peers, and the personal history.
(16) O2 consumption, CO2 production, respiratory quotient, minute ventilation, and PaCO2 were the same for the three protein regimens.
(17) No significant relation between the treatment group and Mose rating (p greater than 0.05), epiphyseal quotient (p greater than 0.05), or healing rate (p greater than 0.05) was found.
(18) Resistances of coronary arteries, microvessels, and veins were calculated from the quotients of the pressure gradient across each vascular compartment and myocardial perfusion (radioactive microspheres).
(19) Plasma levels of total, free and acylcarnitine, as well as oxygen consumption and respiratory quotient were determined in premature infants maintained at neutral temperature.
(20) Exchange of gas was markedly restricted under aggressive respiration (FiO2 = 1.0, PEEP = 10 mmHg, breathing time quotient = 0.5, respiratory minute volume = 16 litres; gas exchange values: PaO2 = 67 mmHg, PaCO2 = 45 mmHg, PA-aO2 = 461 mmHg).
