(19) Carbon particles entering the subarachnoid space over the vertex of the cerebral hemispheres drained along selected paravascular and subfrontal pathways in the subarachnoid space to the cribriform plate and thence into nasal lymphatics and cervical lymph nodes.
(20) As it was not possible to collect sufficient material for valid conclusions on a series of patients with similar uterine activity, fetal size, uterine volume, cervical resistance, and lower uterine segment development; only women in normal labor without disproportion and delivered of infants in the occipitoanterior vertex presentation were included in the study.
Vortexes
Definition:
(pl. ) of Vortex
Example Sentences:
(1) Arterial-type flows produced a pair of vortex sinks downstream of the branching port.
(2) However, the external muscle fibers of the ventricles ran clockwise from base to apex toward the center of the vortex, which had a striking resemblance to the normal rather than the mirror image pattern.
(3) She says that, while she stayed away from the more difficult ramifications of that upbringing, she nevertheless plunged right into the "hot quicksand" of the Arab-Israeli conflict, right down into the Biblical roots of Jewish-Muslim conflict in the story of Abraham, Hagar, Isaac and Ishmael (which she meditates upon in the opera's Hagar chorus), and into the vortex of questions about Israel's right to exist and what motivates terrorists.
(4) Nancy Curtin, the chief investment officer of Close Brothers Asset Management said: "The US economy didn't just grind to a halt in the first quarter – it hit reverse as the polar vortex took its toll.
(5) Electron microscopy and reactivation of infectivity by vortexing suggested that aggregation makes only a minor contribution to neutralization by IgG or IgM.
(6) This study employs classical inviscid fluid dynamics theory to investigate whether LV diastolic inflow volume and the size of the LV play a role in vortex ring formation.
(7) Azotobacter chroococcum (ATCC 7493) was grown in continuous culture with intense vortex aeration (stirring rate 1750 rpm) with up to 50% O2 in the gas phase.
(8) Vortex flow filtration (VFF) was used to concentrate viruses and dissolved DNA from freshwater and seawater samples taken in Florida, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Bahamas Bank.
(9) Specific modifications to the manual procedure include the use of serial vortex mixings in place of batchwise lateral shaking and the substitution of small (6 mL), disposable solid phase extraction columns driven by compressed gas for large (25 mL), gravity-fed, reusable glass columns.
(10) Flow separations also stimulate vortex formation and turbulent mixing at the downstream jet boundaries and thus may intensify blood damage by turbulent shear stresses.
(11) Both record, with power and sentient humanity, the vortex of war in our world today, and the millions these wars scatter and shatter across it, not least to Europe’s shores.
(12) This vortex, which persists into early systole, provides good washing of the VAD walls.
(13) It’s like you go through some crazy inter-dimensional vortex,” Barbe said.
(14) These vortexes were places where spiritual energy was at its highest point, where you could tap into the frequencies of the universe, where you could, by closing your eyes, start to change your life.

(18) This method is then used to study the formation of the sinus vortex and to confirm the predictions of the point vortex model with respect to the role of the vortex in valve closure.
(19) Several lines of evidence suggest that the phagocytic uptake depends, in part, upon the LDL receptor and not the acetyl-LDL receptor: 1) soluble, native LDL and beta-VLDL (but not acetyl-LDL) competed for uptake and degradation of LDL aggregates; 2) reductive methylation of LDL before vortexing reduced the effect of the aggregates on degradation and cholesterol esterification; 3) heparin, which inhibits binding of native LDL to its receptor, reduced the degradation of LDL aggregates.
