What's the difference between lodgement and lodgment?
Lodgement
Definition:
(n.) See Lodgment.
Example Sentences:

(6) It was more probable that the sulphated polysaccharides were interfering with the passaging of tumour cells across the capillary wall as heparin significantly inhibited metastasis when injected up to 3 hr after lodgement, and heparin and fucoidan caused a gradual loss of tumour cells from the lung which only became apparent greater than 1 hr following cell lodgement.
(7) The suppressive effect of cytotoxicity of the splenocytes by whole body X-irradiation may thus relate to ensuing metastasis both in the phase of release and intravasation from the primary tumor and in the phase of lodgement and proliferation in the target organ.

(10) We devised a set of instrument, self-made plastic Ivalon for tailoring the plugs, developed the technique of retrograde aortic angiography to measure the diameter of the ductus, and determined the criteria of definite lodgement of the plug.
(11) Coagulation system and platelets play an important role in the stage of lodgement of tumor cells.
(12) In this report, the influence of 18:2 on specific events of tumor metastasis, namely, lodgement, proliferation and survival, were studied using spontaneous and experimental metastasis assays with line 4526 cells.
(13) The IL 1 and TNF action on EC may play a role in tumor cell lodgement.
(14) Most probably inner bumper lodgement in the terminal ileum is related to its size.
(15) These studies indicate that the increase in lung colony yield after LTI cannot be ascribed to improved intravascular trapping or interstitial lodgement of tumor cells.
(16) Lodgement of tumor cells first cultured in serum of mice fed 18:2 then injected into mice fed 1% 18:2 was not affected.
(17) In thrombocytopenia lodgement was reduced by 47% and hepatic 5-HT levels by 52% in comparison with tumor cell-injected controls.
(18) The lodgement of tumour cells (TCs) is a key event in the development of metastases in distant organs.
(19) Thrombocytopenia or 5-HT blockade decrease the hepatic lodgement of the injected TCs.
(20) These findings suggest an etiologic relationship between pill lodgement and Schatzki's ring in patients without reflux and indicate that different therapy should be employed in these patients.
Lodgment
Definition:
(v.) The act of lodging, or the state of being lodged.
(v.) A lodging place; a room.
(v.) An accumulation or collection of something deposited in a place or remaining at rest.
(v.) The occupation and holding of a position, as by a besieging party; an instrument thrown up in a captured position; as, to effect a lodgment.
Example Sentences:
(1) The single most serious hazard to surgery in radiated tissue is the lodgment of bacteria in this tissue rendered avascular by the radiation and secondary necrosis from the infection itself.
(2) Four complications occurred, all related to device release: left pulmonary artery embolization in 1 case, femoral artery embolization in 1, torn pulmonic valve cusp in 1 and lodgment of a prosthesis on a pulmonic valve cusp.
(3) The locations of distant secondary tumors in many clinical cancers and animal tumors are nonrandom, and their distributions cannot be explained by simple anatomical or mechanical hypotheses based on the simple lodgment or trapping of tumor cell emboli in the first capillary bed encountered.
(4) The characteristic E:G colony ratios of spleen and marrow appear more likely to be the result of a hemopoietic organ stromal influence on pluripotent colony forming units (CFU's) than of selective lodgment of committed (unipotent) granuloid and erythroid CFU's in bone marrow and spleen, respectively, as indicated by the following.
(5) Lodgment of eggs in the oviduct was probably due to reverse peristalsis brought about by breakage of the thin-shelled eggs and secondary bacterial infection.
(6) Both direct and sequential transplant (retransplantation shortly after lodgment) experiments were carried out.
(7) We also review the literature concerning complications of Salmonella infections, and particularly discuss their hematogenous spread and lodgment.
(8) In 29 of 35 patients (including the 2 presented here) in whom the site of disc lodgment could be determined, the disc was in the descending or abdominal aorta.
(9) Systemic anticoagulation with heparin or sodium warfarin does not prevent lodgment of tumor cells within these lymphatic capillaries, nor does it alter the pattern of ascitic fluid accumulation.
(10) A review of the Queensland government’s “coordinated projects” website showed that the average time between the lodgment of an initial advice statement by a proponent and the delivery of a coordinator general report was four to five years.
(11) The location of symptoms, however, was useful in guiding the endoscopist to the site of lodgment.
(12) Symptoms developed in 11 patients but were only severe in the single case of esophageal lodgment.
(13) A prospective study of 18 asymptomatic volunteers showed a high incidence of esophageal lodgment of a radiolabeled medicinal capsule, with subsequent dissolution and release of the isotope.
(14) The tested substances diminished platelet aggregation to circulating cancer cells, leading to a dose-dependent inhibition of cancer cell lodgment to the endothelium.
(15) Bacterial counts on the other hand, showed that increased mortality in mixed MCMV and KP infected mice was due to an uncontrolled growth of bacteria at the site of primary lodgment, i.e., the peritoneum, and severe systemic infection.
(16) The sites of lodgment correspond to the location of the observed strictures in the patient population.
(17) The classical pathological syndrome of clinical nephrolithiasis is thus reproduced within the nephron; to wit, the origin of the calculus at a certain level, local traumatic damage at the site of its origin, passage with the fluid flow down the urinary passages, lodgment of the calculus at some restricting point, obstruction of fluid flow and the usual consequent localized intrarenal "hydronephrotic" alterations of regressive atrophic cellular dysplasias within the nephron.
(18) This led to the following conclusions concerning differences in the proportion of E or G colonies formed in recipient spleens and bones: (1) selective lodgment of 'committed' CFU-S does not occur; (2) selected repression or stimulation of 'committed' CFU-S does not occur; and (3) the findings are best explained by a condition of reversible directedness present in many or all transplantable pluripotent stem cells.
