(19) Compared with Sheehan's series in England, it was found the incidence of post-partum hypopituitarism in Okayama was presumably less than in England.
(20) In addition, we have shown that long-lived, presumably non-senescent, strains do not arise by suppressor mutation, but lose senescence plasmid DNA by another mechanism.
Presumptively
Definition:
(adv.) By presumption, or supposition grounded or probability; presumably.
Example Sentences:

(3) Three discrete cell populations were thus defined, differing in mean cell diameter TdT+ 14.8- mu-, 9.5 micron; TdT+ 14.8+ mu-, 10 microns; and TdT- 14.8+ mu-, 11.5 micron, presumptively representing a sequence of cell stages preceding the expression of mu chains in large pre-B cells (TdT- 14.8+ c mu+ s mu-, 11.5 microns).

(7) In addition, E9 primary cultures contain a transient subpopulation of presumptive mesenchymal stem or progenitor cells that lack density dependent inhibition of growth [contact-insensitive (CS-) cells].
(8) Because the pathophysiology of many drug eruptions is unknown, the presumption that a drug eruption is due to immune mechanisms is often based on clinical features.
