Sentence examples for extent of oxygenation from inspiring English sources

Although the authors stated that two animals died because of endotoxin-induced ALI, the extent of oxygenation impairment did not reach the ALI defining ratio of arterial partial oxygen pressure to inspired oxygen fraction (≤ 300).

A previous crossover study in mechanically ventilated patients showed that although hyperinflation performed before OES improved lung compliance and increased the volume of sputum, there was no significant difference noted in the extent of oxygenation between the OES study groups, with or without hyperinflation [ 16].

Here we have investigated the intensity and spatial extent of blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) fMRI responses in the cervical spinal cord of healthy volunteers, elicited by stimulation of the hand dorsum (C6 C7 dermatomes).

In light of the above observations, it is important to consider local geometry, hemodynamics, and oxygen transport as well as the average tissue PO2 when assessing the extent of tissue oxygenation or the functional state of the microcirculation during sepsis.

Both the stereochemical configuration at C5 (i.e., 5α vs. 5β) and the extent and sites of oxygenation (hydroxylation or ketonization) of the bile acid derived steroid skeleton were evaluated by screening the compounds for olfactory activity using electro-olfactogram recording.

Traditionally, the application of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to the identification of the neural correlates of behavior has been based on defining the magnitude and extent of the blood-oxygenation-level dependent (blood-oxygenation-level dependentinterest.

Results indicate changes in levels of cellular proliferation, changes in the extent of vasculature, changes in oxygenation of tissue and altered levels of DNA damage with the use of ultrasound-stimulated microbubbles, when used in combination with radiation.

The Clinical Pulmonary Infection Score (CPIS), utilized in the study by Abdel Gawad and colleagues, is based on five clinical parameters - fever, leucocytosis, purulence of secretions, oxygenation, extent of radiographic infiltrates - and strengthened by cultures from the lower respiratory tract (most often broncho-alveolar lavage (BAL)) [ 10].

In fact, EBC nitrite has been closely correlated to tidal volume, and the EBC nitrite and tidal volume ratio has been strongly correlated to the extent of lung injury, using the oxygenation criteria of the consensus definition or the Lung Injury Score [ 4].

The preoxidized 8-h-xanthated coal prepared in this work showed a better Cd2+ removal (81%% against 15%%) than a non-preoxidized 40-h-xanthated coal, which suggests that the oxidation of coal increases the amount of oxygenated functional groups in the coal structure; this oxygenation enhance the extent of xanthation and increase the density of exchangers in the coal surface.

However, these studies may have over-estimated the extent of cortical overlap as the blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) effect underlying fMRI is only an indirect measure of neuronal activity and imposes a spatial blur that increases the spatial extent of responses [Engel et al., 1997].
