  2. Respiratory pressure meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiratory_pressure_meter

    Maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP), also known as negative inspiratory force (NIF), is the maximum pressure that can be generated against an occluded (closed or obstructed) airway beginning at functional residual capacity (the volume of air present in the lungs at the end of passive expiration).

  3. Pulmonary function testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_function_testing

    Maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) is the maximal pressure that can be produced by the patient trying to inhale through a blocked mouthpiece. Maximal expiratory pressure (MEP) is the maximal pressure measured during forced expiration (with cheeks bulging) through a blocked mouthpiece after a full inhalation.

  4. Macrophage inflammatory protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrophage_inflammatory...

    MIP-1γ is another macrophage inflammatory protein and according to the new nomenclature is named CCL9. [3] It is produced mainly by follicle-associated epithelial cells and is responsible for chemotaxis of dendritic cells and macrophages into Peyer's patches in gut through binding of CCR1. [11] MIP-1δ or MIP-5 (CCL15) binds also CCR1 and CCR3 ...

  5. Health policy and management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_policy_and_management

    Unwarranted variations in medical practice refer to the differences in care that cannot be explained by the illness/medical need or by patient preferences. The term “unwarranted variations” was first coined by Dr. John Wennberg when he observed small area (geographic) and practice style variations, which were not based on clinical rationale. [5]

  6. Maximum intensity projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_intensity_projection

    This implies that two MIP renderings from opposite viewpoints are symmetrical images if they are rendered using orthographic projection. MIP is used for the detection of lung nodules in lung cancer screening programs which use computed tomography scans. MIP enhances the 3D nature of these nodules, making them stand out from pulmonary bronchi ...

  7. Non-mevalonate pathway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-mevalonate_pathway

    The MEP pathway has been extensively studied and engineered Escherichia coli, a commonly used microbial species for laboratory research and application. [18] IPP and DMAPP, the products of the MEP pathway can be used as substrates for the heterologous production of terpenoids with high value for application in the pharmaceutical and chemical ...

    In addition, they may apply the science of informatics to the collection, storage, analysis, use, and transmission of information to meet legal, professional, ethical and administrative records-keeping requirements of health care delivery. [1] They work with clinical, epidemiological, demographic, financial, reference, and coded healthcare data.

  9. Molecular imprinting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_imprinting

    The monomers, which are self-assembled around the template molecule by interaction between functional groups on both the template and monomers, are polymerized to form an imprinted matrix (commonly known in the scientific community as a molecular imprinted polymer (MIP)). The template is subsequently removed in part or entirely, [1] leaving ...
