What's the difference between sard and sart?

Sard


Definition:

  • (n.) A variety of carnelian, of a rich reddish yellow or brownish red color. See the Note under Chalcedony.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) It is proposed that all SARDs act on some aspect of the central reaction in the ongoing immune response where antigen presentation to T helper cells results in interleukin 2 production and the generation of activated T cells.
  • (2) The effects produced by a single agent in vivo and in vitro are not always the same so a single mode of action, for example through possession of a thiol group, cannot explain the effects of all SARDs.
  • (3) Review of the known activity of SARDs on different cell types at various anatomical sites suggest that in fact different SARD drugs act in differing and sometimes conflicting ways.

  • (6) However, none of the SARDs examined could scavenge O2- at concentrations reported in patients' plasma.
  • (7) This approach for combination therapy whereby a second SARD is given to patients already established on a single SARD, appears to minimise the toxicity which is a problem when 2 SARDs are started simultaneously.
  • (8) "These instruments were not invented by Greece, nor did investment banks discover them just for Greece," said Christophoros Sardelis, who was chief of Greece's debt management agency when the contracts were conducted with Goldman Sachs.Such contracts were also used by other European countries until Eurostat, the EU's statistic agency, stopped accepting them later in the decade.
  • (9) During the first year none of the reactions were serious although 9 of the 29 patients (31%) given D-penicillamine and 3 of the 9 patients receiving aurothiomalate developed side-effects requiring withdrawal of the second SARD.
  • (10) A gas chromatographic system with wide-bore capillary columns and synchronized accumulating radioisotope detector (SARD) was developed.
  • (11) The site of action of SARDs within the body--whether at the level of synovial inflammation or of the systemic immune response--is largely undetermined.
  • (12) Since many drugs, particularly the slow-acting anti-rheumatic drugs (SARDs) used in RA, may alter O2- metabolism, the effects of SARDs on SSA were also studied.
  • (13) The performance of wide-bore capillary columns was good and the correspondence of the resolution obtained with SARD and that with mass detection was excellent.
  • (14) This open study examined the safety of adding a second slow-acting anti-rheumatic drug (SARD) - D-penicillamine or sodium aurothiomalate - to the therapy of 38 rheumatoid patients already established on sulphasalazine.
  • (15) The slow acting anti-rheumatic drugs (SARDS) are a chemically heterogeneous group.
  • (16) The SSA of the plasma, PB-PMN, JF and JF-PMN were significantly higher in patients treated with SARDs than those without.

Sart


Definition:

  • (n.) An assart, or clearing.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The sensitivity of SART-stressed (repeated cold-stressed) mice to substance P (SP) was studied.
  • (2) Reflux was most effectively prevented by the Nissen repair, as shown by the SART and the 24-hr esophageal pH monitoring, a sensitive measurement of frequency and duration of reflux.
  • (3) 7 These results suggest that SART-stressed animals are in a disease state differing from that of other so-called stressed animals, and changes in the hypothalamus give rise to the various symptoms in SART-stressed animals.
  • (4) Neurotropin, a sedative analgesic, slightly increased faster waves on resting-arousal EEG and slower waves on slow-wave sleep EEG in normal rats, and it prevented SART stress-induced EEG alterations during both resting-arousal and slow-wave sleep.
  • (5) These results suggest that cholinergic neurons may be activated in both the hypothalamus and basal ganglia of the brain of SART-stressed rats, and the characteristic peripheral changes of the cholinergic system in the duodenum of SART-stressed rats may be under the control of the parasympathetic center.
  • (6) Central nervous system levels of serotonin (5-HT) and 5-hydroxy-indoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) in SART (specific alternation of rhythm in temperature)-stressed (repeatedly cold-stressed) rats were examined by HPLC-ECD.
  • (7) We stated that SART-stressed guinea pigs showing nasal mucosal hypersensitivity would serve as an animal model for the in vivo evaluation of antiallergic drugs.
  • (8) Moreover, Neurotropin appears to be effective for moderating SART stress.
  • (9) As part of an investigation on the behavioral characteristics of SART-stressed animals, an animal model of autonomic imbalance, the open-field behavior of SART-stressed (repeated cold-stressed) rats was studied and compared with that of rats exposed to other types of stress.
  • (10) With the D'Amour-Smith method, only NSP had a greater effect in SART-stress mice than in normal mice.
  • (11) The effects of Kamikihi-To (KMK), a traditional Chinese medicine, on autonomic imbalances were evaluated in SART-stressed (repeated cold-stressed) mice.
  • (12) These results suggest that SART-stressed rats have some form of abnormality in the synthetic system of 5-HT.
  • (13) Length of small intestine from SART stressed mice was much the same as in controls, but wet weights of small intestines were larger than in controls.
  • (14) Conditioning of monosynaptic reflexes was used to investigate group II excitation from quadriceps (Q) and sartorius (Sart) in posterior biceps-semitendinosus (PBSt) motoneurones and different lesions were made to analyze the interneuronal pathways.
  • (15) SART-stressed mice showed significant increases in erythrocyte count, hemoglobin, hematocrit and specific gravity of whole blood, no change in leukocyte count and a marked decrease in platelet count.
  • (16) Autonomic agonists, antagonists, tranquilizers and other drugs were given intraperitoneally to mice once daily during SART stress, and the ACh responses in the isolated duodenum were investigated.
  • (17) Thus, SART-stressed mice appear to have impairment in the process of acquisition of a passive avoidance task.
  • (18) The mechanism of hyperalgesia observed in SART (repeated cold)-stressed animals (mice and rats) was studied in relation to the autonomic nervous system.
  • (19) ACh response in the isolated duodenum from SART stressed (repeated cold stressed) mice was remarkably decreased in comparison to normal mice 5 days after onset of loading SART stress, and maximal contraction in SART stress mice duodenum was about 37% of that in non-stressed mice.
  • (20) Moreover, Neurotropin appears to improve and normalize hemostatic imbalance due to SART stress, a chronic form of stress.
