Within minutes of interspecies transplant, antibodies attack the new organ and destroy it, a process which is called hyperacute rejection. ❋ Unknown (2004)
What scared me the most would be having all my senses thrown into a hyperacute state, when everything was crystal clear—especially the knowledge that I was stuck. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Other chemicals likely to be present in such water, which include fuel from machinery, "tend not to be hyperacute hazards," at low levels, he said, and people could likely recover from their effects without severe impact. ❋ Unknown (2010)
The main ethical problems included the health risks for the transplant recipient (e.g., a substantial risk of hyperacute rejection and graft-versus-host disease), traditional animal ethics issues, concerns about informed consent (complicated by empirical uncertainties and the possibility of legally mandated life-long health surveillance), fair allocation of health care resources, and the public health issue that xenotransplantation would allow viruses to jump the species barrier into humans. ❋ Streiffer, Robert (2009)
The TV set over the bar had sound turned way down, but his hyperacute ears could make it out. ❋ James Killus (2007)
Pendergast froze, his hyperacute senses strained to the maximum. ❋ Preston, Douglas (2005)
Xenotransplanters must overcome the problems of rejection, from the sugar-related hyperacute rejection to the insidiously slow T cell run processes of acute and chronic rejection. ❋ Unknown (2004)
The hurdle of hyperacute rejection is just the first obstacle on the course. ❋ Unknown (2004)
Primates lack alpha-gal naturally, and it's known to be a major focus for hyperacute rejection. ❋ Unknown (2004)
The antibodies of hyperacute rejection attach to sugars on the outside of the organ; pigs and humans have different sugars, unlike humans and other primates. ❋ Unknown (2004)
His hearing, his eyesight, touch, are all hyperacute and informative. ❋ Baker, Kage (2004)
The undesired effects are drastic; they include reactive encephalopathy (an hyperacute neurological complication of an allergic nature) - often fatal - in 3% to 10% of cases; those who survive the encephalopathy suffer serious neurological sequelae. ❋ Unknown (2001)
Some eery premonition -- some warning from the barbarian's hyperacute senses -- sent its current quivering along the tendrils of his nerves. ❋ Howard, Robert E. (1969)
Actually, the hypnotic state is a period of extreme awareness in which the subject is hyperacute. ❋ Melvin Powers (N/A)
And so, in my view, you are doing two things when you talk to the subject; you are giving him helpful suggestions, but you are also keeping him awake and hyperacute so that these suggestions will sink in. ❋ Melvin Powers (N/A)
The shortlisted projects come from a primary care trust, a national specialty society, a combined hyperacute and stroke rehabilitation unit, and a hospital team. ❋ Smith, J., Moss, F. (2010)
