What's the difference between intumesce and intumescent?

Intumesce


Definition:

  • (v. i.) To enlarge or expand with heat; to swell; specifically, to swell up or bubble up under the action of heat, as before the blowpipe.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The primarily affected eye presented with acute ACG in 71 patients, with intermittent or chronic ACG in 41, and with acute ACG secondary to intumescent cataract in six.
  • (2) Obviously intumescent cataractous lenses were excluded.
  • (3) For clinical application the initial intumescence should be taken into consideration, as well as the donor tissue thickening during its freezing for working on a lathe.
  • (4) Examples of intumescent, traumatic and calcified cataracts, congenital and traumatic displacements and other abnormalities are shown.
  • (5) In each spinal cord three levels were studied, the cervical intumescence (C5), the mid-thoracic region (T5) and the lumbar enlargement (L3).
  • (6) The detection of anterogradely transported HRP at the cervical as well as the lumbar intumescence was carried out as described earlier (J. Histochem.
  • (7) The active stage is further subdivided into intumescent (hypertrophic) and atrophic forms.
  • (8) In our series the lens, which was either partially or completely cataractous at the initial operation, became intumescent at different times afterwards, and an immediate removal was necessary.
  • (9) Mould of re-selection were almost uniformly small, showing a trend of intumescence becoming emphatically.
  • (10) Two rare observations of sinus pericranii are presented, characterized by a soft intumescence containing venous blood and growing in size if the head is bent or during tension.
  • (11) The condition may be diagnosed by local introduction of a contrast agent into the intumescence.
  • (12) Acute glaucoma due to an intumescent cataract should be treated medically or by peripheral iridectomy.
  • (13) In cataracts with gray, brown, or black nucleus and sometimes a clear cortex or deep supranuclear, subcapsular or intumescent cortical opacities, distinct hardening of the nucleus was found, which reached values 3-4 times higher than in clear lenses of 80 year olds.
  • (14) Therefore, no evidence was found for increased axon branching in the tract in the cervical intumescence.
  • (15) Severe, seemingly permanent intraocular hemorrhages caused by ocular trauma, Eales' disease and retinal vein thrombosis, lead to late formation of a dense retrolental membrane, vitreous liquefaction and intumescent cataract with faulty light perception.
  • (16) Hence, the association of biochemical features of thyroidal stimulation with volumetric changes in the gland strongly suggests that pregnancy truly induces goitrogenesis rather than vascular swelling ("intumescence") alone, at least in conditions with a low iodine intake.
  • (17) Quantitative results revealed that after labelling of the medial prefrontal cortex no peaks in labelling density, neither at the cervical nor at the lumbar intumescence, were present.
  • (18) It could also be demonstrated that the axial diameter of the lens remains smaller than that of the partner eye even when the cataract is intumescent with fattening of the anterior chamber.
  • (19) The diagnosis depends on the clinical features of intermittent attacks of localized swelling affecting one or more eyelids associated with thinning of the skin giving either an intumescent (hypertrophic) or atrophic appearance in the active stage of the condition and progressing to atrophic changes in the quiescent (late) stage.
  • (20) This will necessitate a second procedure which might ultimately compromise a successful corneal graft, as well as allow the possibility that some cataractous lenses may become progressively intumescent during the postoperative period and endanger the clarity of the transplant.
