We can imagine a unit that is better (or worse) at treating sicker patients than healthy ones, but it would be very odd to find a unit that performs well (or poorly) in less severe, poorly (or well) in medium-severe, and well (or poorly) in more severe patients.
Here, in two (9.1%) patients pharmacogenic beta activity, in three patients (13.6%) other mild pathological abnormalities, in three (13.6%) medium severe pathologic abnormalities, and in one patient (4.5%) severe pathologic abnormalities with spike-wave complexes were observed (see Table 1 for a more detailed description of the EEG patterns).
Sixty-eight patients (37%) developed an ARF: 49 with a low or medium severity and 19 with a severe ARF requiring renal replacement therapy.
In IPKs perfused with cell-free oxygenated medium, severe medullary hypoxic damage developed, affecting 42±9% of mTALs in the mid-inner stripe.
We also need to consider that if the damage in the medium is severe and the shapes of the DCWs and ACFs before and after the mainshock become dissimilar, a stretching technique might be inapplicable.
The 2 × 2 factorial design had two levels of raw material (barley grits and barley flour) and two levels of screw configuration severity (medium and severe).
The pretreatment was performed with varying severity: mild, medium and severe (Table 2).
In this work, the WAT of several crude oils, representing mild, medium and severe waxy crude oils are measured utilizing current advanced and precise equipment; a micro differential scanning calorimeter (micro-DSC) capable of providing measurements at low cooling rates, a cross polar microscopy (CPM) coupled with an image processing technique and a controlled stress rheometer.
One control animal (275 g) and two kainic acid-treated animals (medium and severe SE, 263 to 296 g) were injected i.v. with 37 MBq [18F]-PBR111 under isoflurane anaesthesia (5% induction, 1% to 3% maintenance in medical oxygen).
Three different combinations of temperature, treatment time, and sulfuric acid concentration were used resulting in mild, medium and severe pretreatment conditions (Table 2).
This device can simulate injuries of different degrees (minor, medium and severe) caused by shock to the right sciatic nerve of rats.
