What's the difference between preponderance and preponderancy?
Preponderance
Definition:
(n.) Alt. of Preponderancy
Example Sentences:
(1) "If necessary we will promote and encourage new laws which require future WHO funding to be provided only if the organisation accepts that all reports must be supported by the preponderance of science."
(2) of complete tryptic digests of the IRBPs indicate that, although they have in common a similar preponderance of hydrophobic peptides, all three proteins differ extensively in their fine structure.
(3) Therefore, it is not necessary to postulate a preponderant extraerythropoietic source to explain the amount of fecal excretion.
(4) These findings suggest postsynaptic regulation abnormalities to be preponderant in this condition.
(5) Selective migration results in a relative preponderance of CD4 cells in the diffuse infiltrate and it is suggested that this is a mechanism likely to potentiate defensive reaction to Mycobacterium tuberculosis: any deficiency in selective migration may make immunological defences less effective and so contribute to the chronicity of the lesions of tuberculosis.
(6) The maximum manifestations were seen in the 21-40 years age group, with male preponderance.
(7) The treatment was almost only in those angiopathies successful, in which the fluorescein angiography showed a preponderance of the hyperpermeability over the obliterating process of retinal capillaries.
(8) A study of 222 pregnancies, with repeated spontaneous miscarriages confirms the clear preponderance of girls, among the non-premature and well-formed children born, and the efficiency of H.C.G.
(9) The patients were mostly middle-aged, and there was a female preponderence.
(10) It was found, contrary to expectation, that the prevalence was 2.96% and preponderant symptoms seemed to be worrisome, tense, irritable and depressive.
(11) In the first group, there was a slight male preponderance and 75% of the patients presented were under two years of age.
(12) A significant preponderance of males had their main interest in biological psychiatry, females in psychotherapy.
(13) Recurrent facial paralysis was encountered in 5.4% of patients and was characterized by male preponderance and a tendency to recur more frequently on the same side as the initial paralysis.
(14) Our results indicate that, if the mutant can be transposed equally well in the presence of the wild type, then it can be expected to be found in preponderance, whereas elements, such as retroviruses, where the transposing genome and its phenotypic expression are coupled, may be characterized by a low mutant frequency.
(15) The erythroleukemia with the preponderance of proerythroblasts had a worse prognosis because many of the individuals did not survive long enough to respond to the therapy initiated.
(16) Five amino acids are preponderant (serin, prolin, glycin, alanin and taurin).
(17) Unusual features of our series of patients were male preponderance (eight of nine patients), the low incidence of other developmental abnormalities, and, in the patients with the duodenal cysts, an age of 14 years or older at the time of onset of symptoms and diagnosis.
(18) In general, there was a male preponderance, with a male:female ratio of 2.2:1 and 7:1 for Saudis and non-Saudis, respectively.
(19) While the initial group of 122 arthroplasties was only slightly greater than one-third male, the preponderance of patellar fractures was in males (ten of 12).
(20) For the third component of complement, S allele is absolutely preponderant.
