  • (9) The effects of norepinephrine (NE), histamine (HIST), glutamate, and adenosine, singly and in combinations, on the accumulation of adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) in slices of rabbit cerebral cortex were examined using tissue from animals 4 days before to 38 days after birth.
  • (10) The present studies were undertaken to obtain histamine (HIST) dose-response curves for tracheal smooth muscle (TSM) from an actively ragweed-sensitized canine model of asthma and to compare these results with 1) HIST dose-response data from littermate control dogs, 2) initially nonsensitized TSM passively sensitized (in vitro) to ragweed and 3) the dose-response curve to an agonist that opens primarily voltage-sensitive calcium channels, i.e., K+.
  • (11) The hemodynamic response to maximal exercise was determined in rats with a chronic myocardial infarction (MI) that were subjected to 6-8 wk of high-intensity sprint training (HIST) or limited exercise activity (sedentary control).
  • (12) The presence of Campylobacter pylori was investigated in duodenal, antral and fundic biopsies of 149 consecutive patients undergoing upper gastrointestinal tract endoscopy by biopsy urease tests (CLOtest; "CLO test") and histologic examination ("HIST") after modified Giemsa staining.
  • (13) On the other hand, pretreatment of the muscle with 10(-5) M Hist for 10 min did not influence the contraction by either MeCh or Hist.
  • (14) After pretreatment of the muscle with 10(-5) M MeCh for 10 min, the contractile effect of 10(-5) M Hist was suppressed intensely for a certain time period, but that of 10(-5) M MeCh was not diminished.
  • (15) Hist and Gast caused an increase of PGE2 contents in gastric mucosa.
  • (16) Subclones containing restriction fragments from plasmid psi 300 inserted downstream from the lac promoter established that the hisT gene is oriented from the HindIII site toward the ClaI site.
  • (17) This mutation is linked to purF, suggesting that it is a new allele of hisT.
  • (18) The hisT gene codes for an enzyme responsible for the conversion of uridine to pseudouridine (Psi) in the anticodon region of many tRNA species in Salmonella typhimurium.
  • (19) Furthermore, this suppression was not surmounted by the elevation of Hist concentration.
  • (20) In general, HIST was found as most sensitive and effective.

Psst


Definition:

Example Sentences:

  • (1) This study was part of a larger study, which included development of a theoretical model for creation of items for the PSST.
  • (2) Children and families were assigned randomly to 1 of 3 conditions: PSST, PMT, or PSST and PMT combined.
  • (3) PSST and PSST-P children showed significantly greater reductions in antisocial behavior and overall behavior problems, and greater increases in prosocial behavior than RT children.
  • (4) This study evaluated the effects of problem-solving skills training (PSST) and parent management training (PMT) on children (N = 97, ages 7-13 years) referred for severe antisocial behavior.
  • (5) It was predicted that (a) each treatment would improve child functioning (reduce overall deviance and aggressive, antisocial, and delinquent behavior, and increase prosocial competence); and (b) PSST and PMT combined would lead to more marked, pervasive, and durable changes in child functioning and greater changes in parent functioning (parental stress, depression, and overall symptoms).
  • (6) Children were randomly assigned to one of three treatments: problem-solving skills training (PSST), problem-solving skills training with in vivo practice (PSST-P), which included therapeutically planned activities to extend training to settings outside of treatment, or client-centered relationship therapy (RT).
  • (7) The purpose of this study was to assess the validity and reliability of an instrument developed by the researchers for evaluation of pressure sores, the Pressure Sore Status Tool (PSST).
  • (8) PSST and PMT combined led to more marked changes in child and parent functioning and placed a greater proportion of youth within the range of nonclinic (normative) levels of functioning.
  • (9) Children in both PSST conditions showed significant reductions in deviant behavior and improvements in prosocial behavior from pretreatment to follow-up, whereas RT children tended to remain at their pretreatment level of functioning.
  • (10) Data were analyzed using a content of validity index (average index for tool = .91) and judges' comments were used to modify two items on the PSST.
  • (11) PSST-P children showed greater changes than PSST children on measures of functioning at school at posttreatment, but these differences were no longer evident at follow-up.
