Half-bent
Subject: Half-bent
You sure have a good ear; "is half-bent," would fit in the blank. It sounds like a case of Paget's disease; sounds like the patient's upper body is at 45 degrees with his pelvis.

Subject: She has not stopped posting her name
She was on last night answering the one about chemo drugs.
No, you are not the only one seeing this. We seem to be the only ones talking about it.
I have noticed her quite a bit in the last few days and it just amazes me the answers she gives. I do not think she will stop, and I agree, I hope the people she is giving the info too will double check or leave it out and let their QA people handle it.
These are legal documents.

To the Monteurochannel posting. sm
I got this straight from the horse's mouth so to speak. Actually from the Peds Urologist whose work I do. He lives in Arizona.
A bladder augmentation with the small bowel ileum (ileocystoplasty) and the creation of a continent catheterizable channel using the small bowel and reconfiguring that into a short tube or channel that is implanted into the bladder. That allows the patient to catheterize from the abdomen (often the belly button) rather than having to cath through the urethra since after the augmentation they usually can not void enough to empty the enlarged bladder. It was described by a physician named Montie (I think at the Univ of Miami) and is now often called a Montie catheterizable channel. Both are an attempt to make a small bladder (eg neurogenic bladder) bigger to hold more urine and avoid urinary incontinence. Essentially trading an enlarged bladder with the need for catheterization to maintain continence for too small a bladder and incontinence.

This sounds more like statistical analysis to me than actual cardiac-related terminology.
I'd start by looking into E x U' or something.
I did stat analysis coursework in college, and the word prime is often represented by an apostrophe. Because there could be data represented by U, and then U' is some derivation of that data. If my fuzzy memory serves me properly, anyway!
I may be WAAAAAY off base here, but that's the first thing I see in this. I hope it helps a little.
