1 Loop diuretics, such as bumetanide (Bumex) and furosemide (Lasix), get their name from the loopshaped part of the kidneys where they have their effect. 2  Thiazide diuretics include such commonly used diuretics as hydrochlorothiazide (HydroDIURIL, Esidrix), chlorothiazide (Diuril), and chlorthalidone (Hygroton). Thiazide diuretics include such commonly used diuretics as hydrochlorothiazide (HydroDIURIL, Esidrix), chlorothiazide (Diuril), and chlorthalidone (Hygroton). 2  Potassium-sparing diuretics prevent the loss of potassium, which is a problem with other types of diuretics.
A lisp, also known as sigmatism, is a speech impediment in which a person misarticulates sibilants ([s], [z], [ts], [dz]), ([Ê], [Ê], [tÊ], [dÊ]). These misarticulations often result in unclear speech.
In the mathematical theory of singularities a cusp is a type of singular point of a curve. Cusps are local singularities in that they are not formed by self intersection points of the curve.The plane curve cusps are all diffeomorphic to one of the following forms: x 2 â y = 0, where k â¥ 1 is an integer. An ordinary cusp is given by x 2 â y 3 = 0, i.e. the zero-level-set of a type A 2 -singularity. 2  Let f (x, y) be a smooth function of x and y and assume, for simplicity, that f (0,0) = 0. 3  Then a type A 2 -singularity of f at (0,0) can be characterised by:
