What's the difference between proximal and proximally?
Proximal
Definition:
(a.) Toward or nearest, as to a body, or center of motion of dependence; proximate.
(a.) Situated near the point of attachment or origin; as, the proximal part of a limb.
(a.) Of or pertaining to that which is proximal; as, the proximal bones of a limb. Opposed to distal.
Example Sentences:
(1) However, CT will be insensitive in the detection of the more cephalic proximal lesions, especially those in the brain stem, basal cisterns, and skull base.
(2) A total of 555 caries lesions were registered on proximal surfaces, 49.1% being primary lesions in the enamel, 21.4% primary lesions into the dentin and 29.5% secondary lesions.
(3) The correlates of three characteristics of familial networks (i.e., residential proximity, family affection, and family contact) were examined among a national sample of older Black Americans.
(4) Measurement of urinary GGT levels represents a means by which proximal tubular disease in equidae could be diagnosed in its developmental stages.
(5) The role of adrenergic agents in augmenting proximal tubular salt and water flux, was studied in a preparation of freshly isolated rabbit renal proximal tubular cells in suspension.
(6) The remaining 5 soil samples, obtained from sites that were not in close proximity to lakes, were also negative except for one that contained type B.
(7) Investigations showed that compliance is reduced in a distal to proximal direction.
(8) Axons emerge from proximal dendrites within 50 microns of the soma, and more rarely from the soma, in a tapering initial segment, commonly interrupted by one or two large swellings.
(9) Since the incidence of gastric cancer in our population seems to be unchanged, this may suggest a true increase in proximal gastric tumours.
(10) Studies were performed to characterize the determinants of proximal tubule ammonia entry (and retention) in vivo.
(11) Nine patients with duodenal ulcer were studied before and 2--3 months after proximal gastric vagotomy (PGV).
(12) There is approximately a 25% decrease in aggregation from regions of the rib distal to the metaphyseal-growth plate junction (69%) to the region proximal to it (50%).
(13) To selectively stain polyanionic macromolecules of growth plate cartilage and to prevent artifacts induced by aqueous fixation, proximal tibial growth plates were excised from rats, slam-frozen, and freeze-substituted in 100% methanol containing the cationic dye Alcian blue.
(14) The diagnosis of an arterial injury may be readily apparent, but the excellent upper-extremity collateral circulation may create palpable distal pulses despite a significant proximal arterial injury.
(15) The NAD-dependent enzymes (except alpha-GPDH) showed a stronger reactivity in the proximal tubules, while the NADP-dependent ones were more reactive in the thick limb of Henle's loop and distal convoluted tubules.
(16) In the other, the proximal fibula was excised and the epiphysis placed across the saphenous artery and vein in the groin.
(17) In testing the contribution of the long, curved stem to the torsional stability of uncemented prostheses by comparing it with other stems, the long, curved stem was the most stable, followed by a shorter straight stem, and a short, proximally curved stem.
(18) In this study, we examined renal tubular cell handling of digoxin and ouabain using LLC-PK1 cells, a model of proximal renal tubular cells.
(19) The surgical procedure, using a dispensable tendon, could be directly associated to the sutures of the proximal injuries of the cubital nerve as a temporary palliative.
(20) Hydroperoxides from arachidonic acid can decompose via this mechanism to form leukotrienes of potential biological significance and can catalyze the epoxidation of proximal carcinogens to ultimate carcinogenic metabolites.
