What's the difference between jugum and umbelliferous?

Jugum


Definition:

  • (n.) One of the ridges commonly found on the fruit of umbelliferous plants.
  • (n.) A pair of the opposite leaflets of a pinnate plant.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The locations of the meningiomas were: convexity 13, parasagittal 6, falx 2, pterion (sphenoid ridge) 5, orbito-cranial 3, jugum sphenoidale 1, tentorium (occipital) 1.
  • (2) The pituitary body can be surgically approached through the triangular cleft limited by the sphenoidal jugum and the anterior side of the optic chiasma.
  • (3) The authors report their experience of the surgical approach for suprasellar tumors (Jugum or tuberculum sellae meningiomas, 3 cases, and suprasellar craniopharyngiomas, 2 cases) in over than seventy years old patients (71-78 y).
  • (4) As the skull radiographs showed erosion of the jugum and chronic intracranial hypertension features, a CT scan was performed and showed hydrocephalus associated with a congenital suprasellar cyst.
  • (5) One should discard the foramen magnum plane (too variable due to the basion lack of precision); the same is true for the axes passing through the sellion point, because the Sella turcica center is situated relatively lower in women and in toothless persons (at least in our series); the studies on the sphenoidal angle are thus tainted with error, the jugum and clivus planes being still more unprecise.

Umbelliferous


Definition:

  • (a.) Producing umbels.
  • (a.) Of or pertaining to a natural order (Umbelliferae) of plants, of which the parsley, carrot, parsnip, and fennel are well-known examples.

  • (2) Ninety-five extracts prepared from 14 kinds of Umbelliferous materials were studied to determine their effects on tumor-promoter-induced phenomena in vitro.
  • (3) Most of the exposure is from limes, with smaller amounts coming from other citrus and umbelliferous food plants.
