Sepsis is a continuum of physiologic stages characterized by infection, systemic inflammation, and hypoperfusion with widespread tissue injury.1 The American College of Chest Physicians and the Society of Critical Care Medicine developed definitions to utilize for sepsis (Table 79—l).2 They provide physiologic parameters categorizing patients as having bacteremia, infection, systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), sepsis, severe sepsis, septic shock, or multiple-organ-dysfunction syndrome (MODS).2 Standardized definitions have been developed for infections in critically ill patients.3... 

Based on your inferences and explanations, develop definitions for the following terms surface tension, capillarity, and viscosity. 

In a study of workers exposed to white phosphorus for intermediate durations in three fireworks plants, 2 of 44 workers developed definite cases of phossy jaw (Ward 1928). These cases, described as slight necrosis of the lower jaw, took up to 2 years for recovery. In the same study, 13 of 27 workers exposed to white phosphorus for chronic durations developed necrosis of the upper and/or lower jaw, ranging from slight to severe 2 of the 13 workers developing phossy jaw died from complications related to the necrosis. This study and several case reports discuss the progression of symptoms during the development of phossy jaw (Heimann 1946 Hughes et al. 1962 Kennon and Hallam 1944). It is likely that the development of necrosis of the jaw in workers exposed to airborne white phosphorus resulted from the local action of phosphorus on the oral cavity. This information is discussed in detail in Section 2.2.2.2. 

In view of these issues, we have over several years undertaken a substantial research programme to develop definitive methods appropriate for in-house certification of matrix RMs, particularly for analytes at trace levels. These definitive measurement methods, most of which use isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS), been the subject of extensive validation, including CCQM key comparisons and pilot studies involving other national measurement institutes. Hence, we are now able to augment interlaboratory data with data obtained at LGC using these very accurate measurements. We have also... 

Notes 11 In this table, N is defined as moles/Z,2i, and c as moles/L3. Parallel definitions where Ni is in terms of M/L2t and c is M/L3t are easily developed. Definitions mixing moles and mass are infrequent. 

It is apparent that at this stage of development definitive conclusions are premature, and that this aspect of amino acid and lipide metabolism will be pursued vigorously in the near future. It is of considerable interest to us that biotin and pantothenic acid deficiencies affect amino acid transport in L. arabinosus, since both vitamins are known to play a prominent role in lipide biosynthesis. We are currently reexamining the turnover of lipide fractions in nutritionally normal and vitamin-deficient cell types to determine whether there is some relation between this aspect of metabolism and amino acid transport. In any case, the nature of the catalytic steps involved in amino acid transport is still unknown to us. They probably occur in the peripheral cell membrane, but even this elementary and widely accepted belief will require additional study before it can be accepted beyond doubt as an established fact. 

Salt is often used to mean common salt or sodium chloride, whereas in fact salt is a general name used for a wide range of compounds produced when an acid reacts with an alkali. The developing definition of what is meant by acid is traced in an article by John W. Nicholson.1... 

As mentioned earlier, epidemiological studies have revealed that the incidence of cancer increases exponentially with age. From these studies, it has been suggested that three to seven mutations or hits are necessary for cancer development. Definitive proof that these hits occur in oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes and that these genes cooperate in tumorigenesis comes from molecular studies in human cancer and mouse cancer models.

TPH is defined as the measurable amount of petroleum-based hydrocarbon in an environmental media. It is, thus, dependent on analysis of the medium in which it is found (Gustafson 1997). Since it is a measured, gross quantity without identification of its constituents, the TPH "value" still represents a mixture. Thus, TPH itself is not a direct indicator of risk to humans or to the environment. The TPH value can be a result from one of several analytical methods, some of which have been used for decades and others developed in the past several years. Analytical methods are evolving in response to needs of the risk assessors. In keeping with these developments, definition of TPH by ATSDR is closely tied to analytical methods and their results. The ATSDR approach to assessing the public health implications of exposure to TPH is presented in Section 2.3. 

International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (lUPAC) An international organization devoted to developing definitions and usages for the worldwide chemical community. 

The Institution also developed definitions for a chemical hazard and a major hazard. It called a chemical hazard a hazard involving chemicals or processes which may realize its potential through fire, explosion, toxic or corrosive effects and, a major hazard as an imprecise term for a larger scale chemical hazard, especially one which may be realized through an acute event . 

Common Future. That report produced and popularized the current sustainable development definition that is quoted above. 

The control quality parameters are always defined by the customer and they become then an integral part of the design. Already in the course of the control system development, definitions of the control system quality features are mutually agreed upon, including the methods and conditions under which the required quality is to be achieved. 

CIOMS has also been involved in developing definitions of ADR terms and the rational use of standardised MedDRA queries, and in ethical guidelines for epidemiological studies. 

The Revalue is the fundamental parameter in planar chromatography to describe the position of a spot on a developed chromatogram. values in linear, circular, and anticircular chromatography were defined. Correlations between these types of R were evidenced for conversion of linear R values in circular and anticircular and unidimensional multiple development. Definition of thermodynamic and relative Revalues were also reported and discussed. In addition, the importance of Rm value, which has a linear relationship with structural elements of the solute and can be used to characterize molecular hydrophobicity in reversed planar chromatography, was evidenced. 

Australia is developing definitions of and limit uses to non-dispersive applications, similar to restrictions in EPA consent orders with companies. 

For leading and lagging indicators, work with others in the organization to develop definitions suitable to the entity. Be sure to obtain consensus on the definitions. Try to avoid unproductive hassles over what is or is not a leading indicator or a lagging indicator. 

More recently, international and national standards bodies, i.e. International Organization for Standardization (ISO), American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), Japanese Standards Association (JIS) and European Organization for Standardization (EN), have developed definitions related to the degradation of plastics. Nowad s, ISO and ASTM standards exist describing in detail the pmposes of biodegradable and compostable . 

When the reaction path is required over the whole distance from reactants to the transition stmcture, elementary problems may occur when using steepest descent. The main reason for this is the fact that the steepest descent path reaches the minimum from the direction given by the eigenvectors of the smallest eigenvalue of the reactant(s) [31]. This is, in general, not identical with the onset of the chemical reaction that we are interested in The question remains Will other definitions of RPs provide better results when using them within the framework of reaction theories mentioned above, and/or is it possible to find new approaches of reaction theories based on new or further developed definitions of RP ... 

Consider some definitions to set the scene for this aspect of developing relationships. An ASCE (2010) task committee developed definitions of professional, technologist, and technician and they are quoted here ... 

Sustainable development is the challenge of meeting human needs for natural resources, industrial products, energy, food, transportation, shelter, and effective waste management while conserving and protecting environmental quality and the natural resource base essential for future development, (definition adopted by ASCE in 1996) ...
