Example Sentences:

  • (1) By presenting the case history of a man who successively developed facial and trigeminal neural dysfunction after Mohs chemosurgery of a PCSCC, this paper documents histologically the occurrence of such neural invasion, and illustrates the utility of gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance scanning in patient management.
  • (2) Philip Shaw, chief economist at broker Investec, expects CPI to hit 5.1%, just shy of the 5.2% reached in September 2008, as the utility hikes alone add 0.4% to inflation.
  • (3) Estimates of the risk probability for each dose level and sacrifice time are found utilizing the sample likelihood as the posterior density.
  • (4) Irradiation of stored red blood cells (RBC) is increasingly utilized for patients who are immunosuppressed or on chemotherapeutic regimens.

  • (6) Utilizing a range of operative Michaelis-Menten parameters that characterize phenytoin elimination via a single capacity-limited pathway, a situation assuming instantaneous absorption (case I) is compared with the situation in which continuous constant-rate absorption occurs (case II).
  • (7) Decreased synthesis rather than increased utilization accounted for the nucleoside effect.
  • (8) The authors present the first results on the utilization of fish infusion (IFP) as a basic medium for the cultivation of bacteria.
  • (9) The durable power of attorney concept, though not free of problems, appears more likely to be of practical utility.
  • (10) Parallel studies in vivo were carried out to determine the contribution of the phosphatidylserine decarboxylase pathway, relative to pathways utilizing ethanolamine directly, to the synthesis of brain ethanolamine glycerophospholipids.
  • (11) Cadavers have a multitude of possible uses--from the harvesting of organs, to medical education, to automotive safety testing--and yet their actual utilization arouses profound aversion no matter how altruistic and beneficial the motivation.
  • (12) Utilization of inert materials like teflon, makrolon, and stainless steel warrants experimental and possibly clinical application of the developed small constrictor.
  • (13) Several aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are herein shown to catalyze the AMP----ADP and ADP----ATP exchange reactions (in the absence of tRNAs) by utilizing a transfer of the gamma-phosphate of ATP to reactive AMP and ADP intermediates that are probably the mixed anhydrides of the nucleotide and the corresponding amino acid.
  • (14) Superior results have been achieved utilizing alternative regimens that include VP-16, the most effective new agent.

  • (16) The total amount of variance explained in the frequency of utilization (47%) exceeded that explained by other studies of utilization of various health services by the elderly.
  • (17) Ketanserin is a specific S2 serotonergic receptor blocker with possible adrenergic blocking activities that has clinical utility in the treatment of hypertension.
  • (18) In this study, protein efficiency ratio and net protein utilization together with the kinetic estimates of protein turnover were used to compare the effect of different protein and fat sources in healthy rats.
  • (19) Although this operational classification does not produce etiologically homogeneous groups, it is believed to have pragmatic utility with respect to planning targeted surveillance and management strategies.
  • (20) The results of our utilization review were conveyed to local hospitals and the blood supplier in an effort to preserved donor blood.
