What's the difference between progression and progressional?
Progression
Definition:
(n.) The act of moving forward; a proceeding in a course; motion onward.
(n.) Course; passage; lapse or process of time.
(n.) Regular or proportional advance in increase or decrease of numbers; continued proportion, arithmetical, geometrical, or harmonic.
(n.) A regular succession of tones or chords; the movement of the parts in harmony; the order of the modulations in a piece from key to key.

(17) Damage to this innervation is often initiated by childbirth, but appears to progress during a period of many years so that the functional disorder usually presents in middle life.
(18) These observations indicate that lipoprotein Lp(a) concentrations can be altered pharmacologically and that the progression of cardiovascular disease may be altered through changes in lipoprotein (a) levels.
(19) Interphase death thus involves a discrete, abrupt transition from the normal state and is not merely the consequence of progressive and degenerative changes.
(20) Serial measurements demonstrated a good correlation between enolase and NSE serum levels and the progression of the disease.
Progressional
Definition:
(a.) Of or pertaining to progression; tending to, or capable of, progress.
Example Sentences:
(1) The strategy is based on an eclectic conceptual framework and reflects the progressional nature of the attachment process.
(2) Cytogenetic analysis of the two least progressionally advanced Dunning cancers (i.e., histologically well-differentiated, slow-growing, nonmetastatic variants) demonstrated no structural or numerical chromosomal aberration, suggesting that the initial development of prostatic cancer may not require detectable cytogenetic changes.
(3) In an attempt to find molecular markers that are specific for aggressive prostatic cancer cells, we compared steady-state mRNA levels of progressionally related prostatic tumors.
(4) Three types of transformants derived from rat embryonal fibroblasts (REFs) corresponding to the different progressional stages were obtained: TF1 (human papillomavirus type 16 E7 (HPV16 E7) transfection alone) and TF2 (E7 plus adenovirus type 12(Ad12) E1b were immortalized, TF3 (E7 plus adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) E1B) was anchorage-independent but not tumorigenic, and TF4 (E7 plus EJ-ras) was tumorigenic.
(5) In late progressional line I 12q+ and in II +7 were the most characteristic findings.
(6) High AFB1 levels may facilitate the generation of these progressional changes, but not by inducing a specific p53 gene mutation at codon 249 as previously reported.
(7) Those with trisomy 7, trisomy 8, or loss of an X chromosome had progressional importance, as well as those variant cells containing markers composed of certain specific chromosome segments.
(8) The complex progressional pattern disclosed in the present case contrasts with cytogenetical data documented for most human benign as well as malignant tumour types.
