Ribbed
Definition:
(imp. & p. p.) of Rib
(a.) Furnished or formed with ribs; as, a ribbed cylinder; ribbed cloth.
(a.) Intercalated with slate; -- said of a seam of coal.
Example Sentences:
(1) In reconstruction of the orbital floor, homograft lyophilised dura or cialit-stord rib cartilage are suitable, but the best materials are autologous cartilage or silastic or teflon.
(2) There is approximately a 25% decrease in aggregation from regions of the rib distal to the metaphyseal-growth plate junction (69%) to the region proximal to it (50%).
(3) The patient had experienced repeated spontaneous fractures for 1.5 years such as serial rib fractures, fractures of the sternum and most recently fracture of the neck of the femur after a minimal trauma.
(4) Microsurgical anastomoses were performed for revascularizing the rib graft.
(5) The resections included an average of three ribs (range, two to five) and, in seven cases, part or all of the sternum.
(6) Arterial complications are usually associated with cervical ribs or rudimentary first ribs, but 12 per cent have occurred in patients with no osseous abnormality.
(7) The three different layers of this tissue are: the outer fibrous layer, the central part called proliferation zone and the inner part towards the underlying rib called transition zone.
(8) Statistical analysis of the findings indicates that there is no significant difference in bone-remodeling activity between similar sites on alternate ribs.
(9) The rib was the most frequent site of the former; the distal femur, of the latter.
(10) Radiologically, the clavicles, the sternum and the first ribs are grossly enlarged with complete fusion between them.
(11) To test the hypothesis that during unsupported arm exercise (UAE) some of the inspiratory muscles of the rib cage partake in upper torso and arm positioning and thereby decrease their contribution to ventilation, we studied 11 subjects to measure pleural (Ppl) and gastric (Pga) pressures, heart rate, respiratory frequency, O2 uptake (VO2), and tidal volume (VT) during symptom-limited UAE.
(12) Upper thoracic fractures that involved the clavicles, scapula, sternum, and ribs were present in four patients.
