(v. i.) A place of bestial debauchery.
(v. t.) To shut up in, or as in, a sty.
(v. i.) To soar; to ascend; to mount. See Stirrup.
(v. i.) An inflamed swelling or boil on the edge of the eyelid.
Example Sentences:
(1) Thus, the estimation of the STI proved helpful and reliable in the early detection of incipient heart failure and in the selection of high risk patients in children receiving ADR treatment.
(2) Systolic time intervals (STI) of the right ventricle, however, were not influenced by the beam angle.

(4) Running speech was used as input signal and STI was calculated from the envelopes of the squared, noise-free speech signal and of the processed, squared, noisy signal in 23 critical bands.
(5) In studies in calcium-free tissue bath solutions, the direct contractile action of STI was abolished; however, its amplification of responses to norepinephrine remained, suggesting that this latter effect of STI is not entirely dependent upon calcium influx into vascular smooth muscle cells.
(6) In the saline groups there was a marked decrease in breaking strength at 24 and 72 h. Most of the strength was restored at 120 h. The metalloproteinase inhibitor tiopronin, which in a previous study had diminished the decrease in breaking strength at 24 h, was without effect at 72 h. Rats given STI, which is a group-specific serine proteinase inhibitor, had substantially higher values of breaking strength than saline-treated controls at 24 and 72 h. At 120 h no difference was found.
