Sickle cell retinopathy is present in some patients with sickle cell disease. In sickle cell retinopathy, blockage of blood vessels in the retina and choroid... results in abnormal blood vessel growth and thinning of the retina.... Sickle cell maculopathy, which affects the center part of the retina, occurs when there is decreased blood flow to this part of the eye. This abnormal blood flow causes patches of retinal thinning... Patients will sometimes note blind spots as a result.  3, record 1, English, - sickle%20cell%20maculopathy

La drépanocytose est une maladie systémique hématologique induisant la survenue d'événements vaso-occlusifs de divers organes cibles. Sur le plan oculaire, l'atteinte rétinienne se caractérise par des occlusions préférentiellement artérielles et de la vascularisation terminale, pouvant se compliquer de néovascularisation périphérique. Longtemps ignorée, la maculopathie drépanocytaire est désormais bien caractérisée grâce à l'imagerie multimodale[. Une] étude de cas suggère que la maculopathie drépanocytaire, caractérisée par des amincissements rétiniens focaux, proviendrait d'une ischémie du plexus capillaire rétinien profond, à l'origine d'une atrophie tissulaire séquellaire.  2, record 1, French, - maculopathie%20dr%C3%A9panocytaire

Winds in this situation produce a net flow of air outward from the layer.

A center hole in the nozzle breaks up accumulation in front of the hose to allow for easy passage. When the hose is withdrawn, the water jets flush the sewer clean. Light materials are flushed down the line and heavy materials are deposited in the manhole for easy removal with the sanitary Hydro-Vac.

... a spray gun includes a fluid adjustment which controls the fluid valve, a spreader adjustment valve, an air-valve assembly, an air cap, a fluid inlet, and an air inlet. The balance among air pressure, airflow, fluid pressure, and fluid flow is controlled by adjusting the valves concerned to provide the desired spray quality and pattern. Air flowing through the center area of the air cap and through holes near the center mixes with fluid from the fluid tip and produces an atomized spray. Air flowing from the openings in the horns of the air cap impinges on each side of the fluid spray to produce an elongated spray pattern. This pattern may be adjusted for a wide or narrow area by changing the setting of the spreader adjustment valve.

The impulse steam trap operates on the principle that hot water under pressure tends to flash into vapor when the pressure is reduced. When hot water is flowing to the trap the pressure in the control chamber is reduced, causing the valve to rise from its seal and discharge the water. As steam enters the trap, the pressure in the chamber increases, causing the valve to close, thus reducing the flow of steam to that which can pass through the small center orifice in the valve.  2, record 19, English, - impulse%20trap
