What's the difference between periuterine and uterus?
Periuterine
Definition:
(a.) Surrounding the uterus.
Example Sentences:
(1) A technique previously used to study placental transfer in pregnant rats, consisting of labeled tracer infusion through the left uterine artery, was employed to determine the utilization of lipogenic substrates by periuterine adipose tissue in the fed and 48-hr starved female virgin rat.
(2) CT findings included tubular retroperitoneal mass (five patients), periuterine mass (four patients), enlarged uterus (four patients), fluid in the uterus (five patients), central ovarian vein thrombus (four patients), inferior vena cava thrombus (one patient), right hydroureter (one patient), and right ureteral compression (one patient).
(3) After 20 min infusion with either D[U-14C]glucose, L-[U-14C]alanine, [U-14C]glycerol or L-[U-14C]lactate, the radioactivity appearing in periuterine adipose tissue 14C-labeled lipids from the left side was always higher than that appearing in tissue from the right side.
(4) Periuterine adipose-tissue mass declined on day 12 of gestation to be recuperated later, subcutaneous adipose tissue increased on day 12 to decline progressively thereafter and interscapular brown adipose tissue remained stable until day 20 and increased on day 21.
(5) Simultaneous infusion of L-[U-14C]alanine and an alanine transaminase inhibitor (aminooxyacetic acid) into the left uterine artery completely blocked the conversion of the alanine transaminase inhibitor (aminooxyacetic acid) into the left uterine artery completely blocked the conversion of the alanine into periuterine adipose tissue 14C-labeled lipids.
(6) The utilization of the infused substrate for fatty acids and glyceride-glycerol synthesis by the tissue was quantified by taking into account the infused radioactivity, the difference in the amount of 14C-labeled lipids appearing in periuterine adipose tissue on the left and the right sides, the arterial plasma concentration of the studied metabolite, and the uterine horn blood flow.
(7) To study the use of glucose for lipid synthesis by the periuterine adipose tissue in situ, 14C-glucose was infused through the left uterine artery of anesthetized, fed pregnant and virgin control rats.
(8) New observations in this series include prominent large or multiple placental venous lakes and periuterine vascularity in six of seven cases, and progressive thinning and disappearance of the retroplacental hypoechoic zone on sequential examinations in two of seven cases.
Uterus
Definition:
(n.) The organ of a female mammal in which the young are developed previous to birth; the womb.
(n.) A receptacle, or pouch, connected with the oviducts of many invertebrates in which the eggs are retained until they hatch or until the embryos develop more or less. See Illust. of Hermaphrodite in Append.
Example Sentences:
(1) In these bitches, a strain of E coli identical to the strain in the infected uterus was isolated.
(2) The combination of an over-distended uterus caused by a multiple-fetus pregnancy with therapeutic bed-rest may cause mechanical ileus.
(3) There was no significant difference in sialic acid concentration in the uterus during the proliferative and luteal phases of the menstrual cycle.
(4) In this study 470 bitches were inseminated; 405 with fresh semen into the cranial vagina and 65 with frozen semen transcervically into the uterus.
(5) The clinical and pathological features of a patient with giant cell arteritis of the uterus and ovaries are described.
(6) If deaths from ruptured uterus are to be avoided, early diagnosis is essential.
(7) In vivo administration of anti-EGF antibody or anti-TGF-alpha antibody significantly reduced estrogen-induced labelling index in castrated mouse uterus.
(8) The cAMP-dependent protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37), has been studied in the vaginal epithelium, vaginal stroma, endometrium, and whole uterus of spayed mice treated with oestradiol-17 beta, and in the vaginal epithelium and uterus of spayed mice.
(9) We report two cases of leiomyomas of the uterus with a deletion of the long arm of chromosome 13.
(10) Likewise, [3H]estradiol-receptor complexes from rabbit uterus, Squalus oviduct, or mouse testis bound minimally to Squalus testicular chromatin.
(11) We have studied the postnatal ontogeny of creatine kinase (CK) and the glycolytic enzymes phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK), phosphoglycerate mutase (PGM), enolase (En), and pyruvate kinase (PK) in rat brain and uterus.
(12) Compared with anteverted (N = 243) or axial (N = 149) locations, the retroverted uterus (N = 66) was associated with a lower mean sample weight per aspiration (22, 18, and 15 mg, respectively; P less than .01) and a greater frequency of multiple-pass procedures (23, 31, and 52%, respectively; P less than .0001).
(13) These plasmin-cleaved peptides are derived from the COOH terminus of C2b, and they induce the contraction of estrous rat uterus.
(14) After resuscitation a laparotomy disclosed an anterior paramedian laceration of the uterus.
(15) Tuberculosis of the cervix of the uterus is a rare form of genital tuberculosis.
(16) In addition, there were 117 hemorrhages (.98% of the cases reported), 22 burns or mechanical injuries of the gastrointestinal tract (.19%), 26 perforations of the uterus (.22%), 44 infections (.37%), 25 skin burns (.21%), and 24 cases of skin or organ emphysema (.2%).
(17) Ruptured uterus is considered as a cause of postpartum hemorrhage, with an incidence of 7.1% overall and 11.9% in patients with severe hemorrhage.
(18) After intrauterine inoculation E. coli was isolated from the uterus up to 30 days, and sporadically from the kidneys and urinary bladder, but not from the liver.
(19) An electromagnetic flow sensor was placed around the middle uterine artery and electromyogram electrodes were attached to the uterus.
(20) LSN lesions in hypophysectomized rats have no effect on the ovary and uterus weights as compared to hypophysectomized ones, but decrease the size of mature ovarian follicles against a background of hypophysectomy or LSN lesions.
