  • (18) The defensive modifications of the functions of the ego itself seen in micropsia are closely allied to those seen in the dèjá vu experience and in depersonalization.
  • (19) It is concluded that TRH is a specific activator of enteric excitatory pathways and that duodenal inhibition seen in control animals is a consequence of gastro-duodenal inhibitory reflexes.
  • (20) Only seven films (or 0.7 percent of the entire cohort) showed nodular or rounded opacities of the type typically seen in uncomplicated silicosis.

Visible


Definition:

  • (a.) Perceivable by the eye; capable of being seen; perceptible; in view; as, a visible star; the least spot is visible on white paper.
  • (a.) Noticeable; apparent; open; conspicuous.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Apparently, the irradiation with visible light of a low intensity creates an additional proton gradient and thus stimulates a new replication and division cycle in the population of cells whose membranes do not have delta pH necessary for the initiation of these processes.
  • (2) Photoreactions induced in that proper sensitizer molecules absorb UV-light or visible light.
  • (3) But do you know the thing that really bites?” he pointed to his home, which was not visible behind an overgrown hedge.
  • (4) The epididymis appeared distended but without any visible sperms.
  • (5) Stage E12 is characterized by the modifications of the CL fraction, particularly the beta-group; at this stage the first dendrites become visible.
  • (6) To determine the severity of regurgitation by dynamic MRI, several parameters were analyzed, including the number of slices with visible signal loss, the time course of the signal loss, and its maximal area and maximal volume.
  • (7) Visible light activates a large guanosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate (cGMP)- and phosphodiesterase (PDE)-dependent infrared light-scattering change in suspensions of photoreceptor disk membranes.
  • (8) However, cytophotometric DNA analysis disclosed that significant increases in proliferative activity of mucosa had occurred 4 weeks before the appearance of histopathological dysplasia, and 8 weeks prior to development of grossly visible tumors.
  • (9) Patients in group A had smoother increases in oxygen uptake and core temperatures, greater cardiovascular stability as reflected by the rate-pressure product, and no visible shivering.
  • (10) The dried-specimen-teasing method appears useful, because of the ease of preparation of the specimens, its reproducibility, and the degree of visibility and preservation of cell surface structures and intraclonal relationships.
  • (11) 3) In Group D, B1 was visible in 19 out of 25 patients and in 18 patients out of these 19 patients, cancer invasion toward B1 was histopathologically confirmed.
  • (12) Use of sunglasses that block all ultraviolet radiation and severely attenuate high-energy visible radiation will slow the pace of ocular deterioration and delay the onset of age-related disease, thereby reducing its prevalence.
