(17) All of these features of the LATs in humans are consistent with those reported in rabbits and mice and further validate the animal models of human HSV-1 infection.
(18) The long-acting thyroid stimulator (LATS) has been thought to be responsible for the hyperthyroidism of Graves's disease.
(19) Demonstration of LATS in the serum, slightly increased serum-triiodothyronine-levels, failure of normal response to TRH and an abnormal triiodothyronine-suppression test in euthyroid ophthalmopathy may herald the manifestation of hyperthyroidism at some later time.
(20) Most patients have elevated levels of LATS in their serum; however, this appears to be a marker for the disease, rather than a cause.
Lath
Definition:
(n.) A thin, narrow strip of wood, nailed to the rafters, studs, or floor beams of a building, for the purpose of supporting the tiles, plastering, etc. A corrugated metallic strip or plate is sometimes used.
(v. t.) To cover or line with laths.
Example Sentences:
(1) One had been attached to the first cutting lathe that Optimal had acquired.
(2) Through combination with a spherical disc face perpendicular to the axis of rotation, which protrudes only slightly from the hemispherical catheter tip, with a maximum at the center and minimum at the lateral borders, the lathing head has only a slight risk of perforation and no undesired sheering forces (Figures 2a to 2d).
(3) Machinable ceramics that can be cut and even lathed have recently been developed in industry.
(4) We studied the anterior surfaces of 30 soft contact lenses (10 lathe cut [polished]; 10 spin cast [unpolished], and 10 cast molded [unpolished]) of the same polymer and water content.
(5) The results indicate that when dental amalgam alloy is added to the glass ionomer, lathe-cut particles are to be preferred but only in an amount up to 20% by weight.

(7) Peripheral swelling was less than central for both lathe cut- and spun cast-type lenses.
(8) 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.
(9) Data is presented in respect of 256 restorations of Occlusin and 69 restorations of a conventional lathe cut amalgam.
(10) The lenses studied were lathe-cut polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), injection-molded non-UV PMMA, injection-molded UV PMMA, and cast-molded UV PMMA.
(11) Measurement of the corrosion rates of three distinctive amalgam alloys (lathe-cut, spherical and dispersed-phase) when immersed in three different electrolytes, including saliva, is reported.
(12) The results indicated that early microleakage from alloys of lathe-cut particles was lower than that from alloys of spherical particles in both low-copper and high-copper amalgam restorations.
(13) Precise lathing of epikeratoplasty lenticules is difficult to achieve with the cryolathe due to unpredictable expansion of the lathing tools and the corneal tissue during the freezing process.
(14) Like, ‘Don’t send us a CD master of the loudest techno music and expect that to be cuttable on a lacquer.’ (The high and low frequencies associated with this type of music can overheat the cutting lathe and cause the mastering machinery to shut down; pushing the process to its limits is the origin of some records being called “hot cuts”.)
(15) Often overlooked is the dental laboratory of which particular interest focuses on the lathes used in preparing prosthetic appliances, castings, orthodontic appliances, and surgical stents.
