  CHEST: Bronchoscopic balloon dilatation in the combined management of postintubation stenosis of the trachea in adults   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
BBD was particularly successful in establishing tracheal patency when laser photoresection was contraindicated or was too dangerous; BBD allowed easy insertion of tracheal stents and the "opening" of folded silicone stents.
BBD is performed with the patient under general anesthesia (intravenous propofol, alfentanil hydrochloride, atracurium besylate) and after intubation with a rigid bronchoscope (Efer; La Ciotat; France; or Storz; Karl Storz GMBH; Tuttlingen, Germany) with its distal end proximal to the tracheal stenosis.
The BBD enabled us to create tracheal patency in three patients with severe postintubation stenoses in whom Nd-YAG laser photoresection was considered too dangerous because of the presence of (dislocated and migrated) silicone stents (patients 1 and 2) or because of an uncertain tracheal anatomy (patients 2 and 3), or both.

 Treating Coral Diseases   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
Because BBD is spread by water motion, care was taken to remove the bands without liberating filaments into the water column, which could result in additional infections downstream.
BBD removal was then supplemented with the application of a putty "bandage," and proved to be exceptionally successful.
The cyanobacteria involved in BBD require light for photosynthesis, and thus are restricted to shallow depths except on reefs with high water clarity.

 HortResearch Publication - Braeburn Browning Disorder - Are nutrition, stress, understorey management and site ...
One of the difficulties in studying BBD is the huge variation in the development of this disorder between trees and orchards.
Therefore, BBD is not caused by a deficiency in either phosphate or boron, and foliar sprays are unlikely to control the disorder.
As BBD was originally suspected in later harvest fruit, bringing forward the maturity by using a grassed understorey may be a means of BBD control.

 Coral Diseases   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
Diseases such as BBD and WBD actually kill coral tissue while advancing in a band around the coral and leaving the white coral skeleton behind.
Edmunds (1991) stated that BBD, caused by cyanophyte Phormidium corallyticum, may have a role in maintaining coral diversity because it is most prevalent in coral species that form large colonies and provide a structural framework for the reef.
When BBD kills part of these colonies, the skeleton is available to be colonized by other coral species recruits.

The name BBD was chosen "to signify 'Bringing a Better Deal' " to Boston Scientific, according to the official company chronology.
BBD also sought suppliers for the steel panels that would provide the raw material for the stents.
To hide that it was making stents, BBD told its suppliers it was making "heat exchangers," a common engineering term for devices such as those used to keep electronics components cool.

 Brain-Based-Devices (BBD)
BBDs are designed based on biological principles and are programmed to alter their behavior to the environment through self-learning.
The first BBD, known as NOMAD (Neurally Organized Mobile Adaptive Device), was developed by Dr. Gerald Edelman, the Founder and Director of the Institute, in the late 1980s.
The BBD Darwin X incorporates aspects of the detailed anatomy of the hippocampus and surrounding brain regions (cortical areas for vision, space, and self-movement) known to be necessary for acquisition and recall of spatial and episodic memories.

BBD infections normally start at the edge of a colony, in a depression on a colony's surface, or at the edge of a previous injury.
In the summer and fall, particularly in clear water environments and when sea water temperatures are at their peak, more corals tend to become infected, and the rate of disease spread typically increases.
BBD disappears or becomes hard to find when water temperatures decline below 22° C, and also during extended periods of low water clarity.

 SABCS: Women With Benign Breast Disease Have Increased Risk of Invasive Breast Cancer
The elevated risk for women with BBD is present even when controlling for risk factors in the Gail Model breast cancer risk assessment.
The relative risks of breast cancer for women with BBD compared to those without benign breast disease were found to be similar across treatment arms -- 1.69 in the placebo group vs. 1.73 in the tamoxifen arm.
For women with BBD, their risk for getting invasive breast cancer was 1.78 times higher than those without BBD, which means that there is a significant association between the two, Dr. Wang said.

Audiosyn BBD Echo-80 is a VST audio processor created in Synthedit which faithfully emulates the workings of BBD (Bucket-Brigade Device) analogue delay-line FX.
The BBD IC was introduced to replace expensive & high-maintenance tape delay systems in the 1980's & allowed guitar FX manufacturers to offer portable low-cost FX for the first time.
Until the introduction of digital FX, the BBD analogue delay-line chip was used to create all the above FX, including all non-tape analogue echo & delay units.

 Long-term outcome in bird-breeders disease   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
Bird-breeders disease (BBD) is a hypersensitivity pneumonitis due to sensitization and exposure to avian components.
This long-term follow-up by perhaps the most experienced investigators of BBD in the USA highlights the bad prognosis in those who already have chronic disease at the time of diagnosis.
Since the onset of disease in such individuals is often gradual and subtle, one must have a high index of suspicion for BBD in individuals with hobby or occupational exposures involving the keeping of psittacine-type birds (e.g., parakeets).
