Impedance


Definition:

  • (18) The factors which impeded good recovery were primary brain damage due to preceding diseases such as cerebral infarct or hemorrhage, initial head injury, parkinsonism, and postoperative psychiatric disturbances.
  • (19) No protection from stimulation-associated impedance modifications was provided by the systemic administration of a material of high osmolarity (Mannitol) but the usual impedance decrease was not seen after systemic administration of a glucocorticoid.
  • (20) Twenty preterm infants ventilated for the respiratory distress syndrome were studied on 44 occasions to identify the pattern of interaction between their spontaneous respiratory efforts and the ventilator, using three techniques: (1) an oesophageal balloon and pneumotachograph, (2) impedance respirography and (3) clinical scoring.

Paradigm


Definition:

  • (n.) An example; a model; a pattern.
  • (n.) An example of a conjugation or declension, showing a word in all its different forms of inflection.
  • (n.) An illustration, as by a parable or fable.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Comparisons between predicted and observed results of studies using different coalition paradigms show considerable empirical support for the model.
  • (2) The hypothesis that the standard acoustic startle habituation paradigm contains the elements of Pavlovian fear conditioning was tested.
  • (3) We present a paradigm to estimate local affine motion parallax structure from a varying image irradiance pattern.
  • (4) In the present study, we used a double-labeling paradigm to test that hypothesis.
  • (5) The results show that centrally administered serotonin, the serotonin precursor, 5-hydroxytryptophan administered with clorgyline, a selective MAO A inhibitor, quipazine, a serotonin receptor agonist, and fluoxetine, a selective inhibitor of neuronal re-uptake of serotonin, attenuated all paradigms of FIA and apomorphine induced potentiation of FIA.
  • (6) The following oculomotor paradigms were investigated: horizontal and vertical saccades of different sizes (10-80 degrees), smooth pursuit eye movements, optokinetic and vestibular nystagmus.
  • (7) Testing of CGRP (ICV) in both single bottle conditioned-aversion and differential starvation paradigms was done.
  • (8) Two other groups were trained in a classical defensive paradigm.
  • (9) A more current view of science, the Probabilistic paradigm, encourages more complex models, which can be articulated as the more flexible maxims used with insight by the wise clinician.
  • (10) A sample of 154 randomly selected, full-wave rectified and filtered electromyographic recordings was evaluated using a test-retest paradigm.
  • (11) We used two experimental paradigms inspired by developmental biology to study how bees obtain information on changing colony needs that results in precocious foraging.
  • (12) Paradigm relies heavily on social science research and analysis to help companies identify and address the specific barriers and unconscious biases that might be affecting their diversity efforts: things like anonymizing resumes so that employers can’t tell a candidate’s gender or ethnicity, or modifying a salary negotiation process that places women and minorities at a disadvantage.
  • (13) However, in a double-cue conditioning paradigm in which both command words were presented alone on different trials and reinforced, response latency was longer and puff attenuation poorer among Vs than when the UCS was signaled by a unique cue.
  • (14) Sixteen patients, 6-15 years old, were tested, using an auditory target selection paradigm.
