What's the difference between heam and ream?

Heam


Definition:

  • (n.) The afterbirth or secundines of a beast.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Microscopically the non-heam iron appears to be found predominantly in glial cells as fine cytoplasmic granules which in heavily stained areas coalesce to fill the entire cell.
  • (2) At Shoreham we have always taken those safety arrangements very seriously.” It confirmed that Hill was not originally meant to pilot the plane but stressed that both he and Heames were highly experienced pilots who would often swap positions.
  • (3) The room-temperature studies show the presence of a low-spin ferrous haem together with a low-spin ferric haem, which we attribute to heams a3 and a respectively.
  • (4) Individual display pilots are only granted approval following a thorough test of their abilities.” Facebook Twitter Pinterest Crane starts moving wreckage at Shoreham plane crash site It emerged that Hill, known as Andy, was selected to fly the plane last month and a fellow pilot, Chris Heames, had been originally listed in the airshow’s programme.
  • (5) When the results of total non-heam liver iron measurements are expressed properly (amount of iron per amount of homogenized liver protein), the distribution of iron is found to be homogeneous in both normal and pathological liver tissues.
  • (6) A significant enhancement of turbidity is observed on heating from 30 to 50 degrees C, with an apparent transition temperature at 43 degrees C. The change of turbidity and the nonlinear behaviour of spin label mobility are being ascribed to denaturation of non-heam-containing subunits followed by an aggregation of the enzyme.
  • (7) The guiding points for the direction of the X-ray heam are: the lateral border of the superciliary arch, the midpoint between the lateral border of the superciciliary arch and the external acoustic meatus, the midpoint between the external acoustic meatus and the external occipital protuberance.

Ream


Definition:

  • (n.) Cream; also, the cream or froth on ale.
  • (v. i.) To cream; to mantle.
  • (v. t.) To stretch out; to draw out into thongs, threads, or filaments.
  • (n.) A bundle, package, or quantity of paper, usually consisting of twenty quires or 480 sheets.
  • (v. t.) To bevel out, as the mouth of a hole in wood or metal; in modern usage, to enlarge or dress out, as a hole, with a reamer.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The commonly used line-to-line reaming technique was compared to an underreaming technique using both four-fifths and one-third porous-coated anatomic medullary locking (AML) implants.
  • (2) The disturbance without reaming was limited to the inner layer of the cortex and involved only one-third of the cortical cross-section.
  • (3) Median strain values of reamed only and polyacetal-nailed femora ranged from 67 to 90 percent of the intact side.
  • (4) In 10 dogs, closed intramedullary nailing with reaming was performed while compartment pressures were measured.
  • (5) Errors in surgical judgment were attributed to inadequate preoperative analysis of the pattern of the fracture; undetected intraoperative comminution during reaming or insertion of the nail, or both; or postoperative failure to recognize an increase in comminution and instability of the fracture.
  • (6) Instead, they continue to pursue austerity policies, which reams of historical data suggest harms economic recovery and does little to create jobs.
  • (7) Forty comminuted or unstable fractures of the femoral shaft were treated by closed intramedullary reaming and locked nailing.
  • (8) The process of reaming causes circulatory disturbances in the inner two-thirds of the diaphyseal cortex.
  • (9) The femoral nailing procedure with reaming in multiple trauma patients involves a potential risk to the lung.
  • (10) Care must be taken at surgery to ream sufficiently and obtain proper cup fit and position.
  • (11) The bone remodeling consisted of endosteal surface bone resorption and periosteal surface bone deposition, most likely due to a loss of structural support from the reamed medullary canal.
  • (12) The line-to-line reamed group showed significantly greater motion than both underreamed groups for all micromotion parameters.
  • (13) Two gross surgical implantation techniques, one involving reaming out the intramural portion of the uterine tube and the other dissecting it out via a transfundal incision, are compared with microsurgical uterotubal anastomosis.
  • (14) While it’s suffered setbacks, Uber has a huge competitive advantage in the market: it owns reams of smart data on traffic flows that will be critical to developing the technology.
  • (15) Mechanical tests showed that the greatest stability was achieved when the prosthetic cup was completely intruded, when all articular cartilage was removed and the socket was reamed, and when anchoring holes for cement were devised.
  • (16) Restricted reaming, brushing and lavage to remove debris, use of high-viscosity cement, and pressurization of the cement are of paramount importance.
  • (17) We conclude that bone healing is delayed by medullary reaming, whereas the pattern of healing is similar in bones with and without reaming.
  • (18) I assimilate reams of paper and electronic notes, scores of blood tests, x-rays and scans, and the current physiological status of the patients.
  • (19) Nailing was performed either primarily or secondarily and reaming was performed in most cases.
  • (20) Intramedullary reaming caused marked reductions in systemic and pulmonary artery blood pressure.
