Answer:
The viability of the TMJ disc cell decreased significantly (P <0.0001) without glucose. With glucose present, the decrease in oxygen levels significantly increased viability (P <0.0001), while a decrease in glucose concentration significantly decreased viability (P <0.0001). With glucose present, decreased oxygen levels significantly reduced ATP production (P <0.0001) and matrix synthesis (P <0.0001). A decrease in glucose concentration significantly decreased collagen synthesis (P <0.0001). The interaction between glucose and oxygen was significant with respect to cell viability (P <0.0001), ATP production (P = 0.00015) and the synthesis of collagen (P = 0.0002) and proteoglycans (P <0.0001).
Although both glucose and oxygen are important, glucose is the limiting nutrient for the survival of the TMJ disc cells. At low oxygen levels, the production of ATP, collagen and proteoglycan is severely inhibited. These results suggest that there may be more pronounced nutrient gradients in the TMJ disc and it may be vulnerable to pathological events that impede the supply of nutrients.

Answer:
<u>We will be moving into our new headquarters downtown in three months.</u>
Explanation:
The question asks us to improve clarity and precision. According to the example and the instructions, we are allowed to come up with more information. Notice how the example transforms "a long way off" into "not take place for two years". That's is where precision lies. "A long way off" is imprecise because it can mean any period of time, according to the context and situation. To improve it, we need to specify how much time we are talking about. For that reason, in the sentence, "Soon we will be in our new location", I've changed "soon" for "in three months":
We will be moving into our new headquarters downtown in three months.
