What's the difference between salvable and solvable?
Salvable
Definition:
(a.) Capable of being saved; admitting of salvation.
Example Sentences:
(1) The use of silastic as a part of the arthroplasty was made when the disc was non-salvable because of perforation or destroyed because of ankylosis or previous surgery.
(2) Reevaluation of screening and diagnostic studies is needed to determine their potential value, particularly in patients with atherosclerotic renovascular disease and renal insufficiency and in assessing the potential salvability of the ischemic kidney.
(3) The identification of four (possibly sequential) components of reperfusion-induced injury helps to clarify the situation: a) Reperfusion after brief periods of ischemia can trigger arrhythmias in tissue that is potentially salvable; there is abundant experimental and clinical evidence for this form of reperfusion injury.
(4) This has increased the difficulty of decisions regarding patient salvability and the allotment of resources.
(5) Determining kidney salvability, choosing the optimal form of intervention, and assessing preoperative risk are essential in approaching the treatment of this complex patient group.
(6) c) Reperfusion is commonly thought to cause lethal injury in cells that, until the time of reperfusion, were potentially salvable.
(7) Restoration of blood flow to the ischemic myocardium prevents continuing cell necrosis, but reperfusion may cause irreversible damage to potentially salvable tissue, possibly through the generation of toxic reactive oxygen species.
(8) Once critical ischemia-induced cellular changes have been identified, interventions can be developed to delay their progression such that at the time of reperfusion more cells are potentially salvable.
Solvable
Definition:
(a.) Susceptible of being solved, resolved, or explained; admitting of solution.
(a.) Capable of being paid and discharged; as, solvable obligations.
(a.) Able to pay one's debts; solvent.
Example Sentences:
(1) The boys attempted to solve two different sets of 10 find-a-word puzzles, one set following exposure to solvable puzzles, and one set following exposure to insolvable puzzles.
(2) Although the purely engineering problems as well as the surgical ones appear solvable at this time, the remaining unsolved problems lie in two areas: 1) the bioengineering interfacing, i.e., the search for methods needed to connect an engineering (electronic) device to the neural auditory system in an efficient manner; and 2) clinical tests for the assessment of the functional state of the cochlear nerve.
(3) They prove that changes in solvability of hemoglobin are determined by the conformational reconstructions of the respiration protein as a result of formation of the complexes with internally erythrocytic metabolites.
(4) The further progress of the exactness of their technique seems to be solvable.
(5) Geophysical data on the carbon amounts in oil, gas and coal show that the problem is solvable, if we phase out global coal emissions within 20 years and prohibit emissions from unconventional fossil fuels such as tar sands and oil shale.
(6) We examined the effects of methylphenidate on the task persistence of 21 boys with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), after they had been exposed to both solvable and insolvable problems.
(7) Life appears as something we wish could be controllable, solvable - but completion is denied: there's always a piece missing.
(8) Liberal senator warns against Abbott's 'simplistic' call for reformation in Islam Read more “We need to be very temperate and we need to be smart as a community,” Lewis told News Corp. “This problem is solvable.
(9) (3) Our shape task was solvable with motion cues from the 6 most relevant locations.
(10) To render them approximately solvable, we assumed mathematical continuity across the membrane and incorporated the Landis-Pappenheimer relationship.
(11) This study suggests that much of the problem may be solvable.
(12) The European energy commissioner, Guenther Oettinger, who took part in talks on Sunday night between Gazprom and Ukraine's Naftogaz, said he believed the situation was "solvable" if the sides showed more flexibility.
(13) It is doing so unarmed, while being confronted by one of the biggest military powers in the world.” Barghouti also warned that Israeli actions – in particular around the flashpoint religious site the Haram al-Sharif known to Jews as the Temple Mount – threaten to “transform a solvable political conflict into a never-ending religious war that will only further undermine stability in a region already experiencing unprecedented turmoil.” Fifty-six-year old Barghouti – who was an important figure in both the first and second intifadas – was arrested by Israel in 2002 in the middle of the second intifada and convicted on five counts of murder two years later.
(14) Laake knows that there may be no happy ending for him, that the problem of East Germany's lost children "is probably not solvable".
(15) At the ceremony in Mexico on Wednesday, Gates said there were "legitimate issues, but solvable issues" around GM and lauded CIMMYT's role trying to sidestep concerns about monopolisation of the technology by the multinationals.
(16) A group of solvable proteins absent in the blood serum, amniotic fluid, fetal placenta and uterus mucosa independent of the phase of ovary development is revealed.
(17) Although these theories themselves yield exceedingly good comparison with experimental (Monte Carlo) data, they involve fairly advanced theoretical and mathematical techniques and do not appear to be readily solvable for other than very simple geometries.
(18) This is a solvable problem – if we start now.” In his weekly address on Saturday , Obama acknowledged criticism of the Shell decision, saying he shared concerns about Arctic drilling.
(19) College students of either androgynous or sex-typed orientation were randomly assigned to either an insoluble concept-formation task or a solvable one.
(20) The results indicated that both low perceivability and high solvability increase the likelihood of response delays specifically in the presence of anxiety-linked stimuli.
