(18) The isolation of skate relaxin in combination with our chemical modification data enable us to suggest a unique site for the interaction of relaxin with its uterine and symphyseal receptors.
(19) These data support the hypothesis that mandibular symphyseal fusion is an adaptative response to maximize unilateral molar bite force by utilizing a greater percentage of balancing-side muscle force.
(20) The symphyseal inclination of the cleft group was mostly the alveolar part of mandibular symphysis.
Symphysis
Definition:
(n.) An articulation formed by intervening cartilage; as, the pubic symphysis.
(n.) The union or coalescence of bones; also, the place of union or coalescence; as, the symphysis of the lower jaw. Cf. Articulation.
Example Sentences:
(1) Rigidly fixing the pubic symphysis stiffened the model and resulted in principal stress patterns that did not reflect trabecular density or orientations as well as those of the deformable pubic symphysis model.
(2) Greater attention to these factors and use of a larger dose of tetracycline (greater than or equal to 1 g) may increase the likelihood of a successful pleural symphysis.
(3) During walking, all components of sacroiliac articulation and the symphysis pubis are apparently subjected to sudden changes in stress.
(4) Permanent pleural symphysis was obtained in all but 2 patients: one who required one single puncture withdrawing 400 cc, the other with mesothelioma on cured Hodgkin's disease, which was a failure.
(5) Stress fractures of the symphysis pubis are usually due to bone insufficiency.
(6) The use of the technique of lavage-drainage of doxycycline could be an alternative in those patients with a malignant pleural effusion whose general condition contra-indicates a symphysis under pleuroscopy.
(7) Perivesical effusions most frequently accompany anterior pelvic arch injuries, i.e., double vertical and Malgaigne fractures and fractures involving, or separation of, the pubic symphysis.
(8) The authors describe a case of Cogan's syndrome in a patient with ulcerative colitis complicated by several cardiovascular manifestations including bilateral coronary ostial stenosis, rapidly progressive aortic regurgitation and aneurysm of the thoracic aorta, thrombosis of the common iliac artery and pericardial symphysis.
(9) In the multivariate analysis the maximum symphysis-fundus height measurement and gestational duration were strongly significant (p less than 0.001), after correction for other variables, for the probability of being delivered of an infant of high birth weight.
(10) the gas is released from solution from the small amount of fluid trapped in the calculus, in the same way that gas may be 'pulled' out of solution in a joint, a degenerate intervertebral disc or the fibro-cartilage of the symphysis pubis.
(11) Abnormal mucopolysacchariduria, observed in both patients, and cataracts, fusion of the symphysis pubis, and deficiency of carpal bones, seen in the mother, have not been described previously.
(12) There was a significant difference between the two groups when measurements relating the foramen to the body of the mandible (symphysis menti) were considered, the foraminal position being more distal in the Chinese group.
(13) In patients with injury to the sacro-iliac joints or of the sacrum, the extent of the injury and the degree of pelvic instability was better shown by CT. All other bony lesions, such as fractures of the ilium, pubis, ischium or the symphysis could be diagnosed adequately by simple radiographs.
