Spanish term

Media

Spanish to English Medical Medical: Pharmaceuticals
Taken from a patent application for a drug to combat atherosclerosis.

The problem is I am not sure what "media" refers to in these two sentences:

1e representa el número de núcleos de células de musculatura lisa medidos por cada milímetro cuadrado de ****media****

n aumento del número de núcleos de células musculares lisas por unidad de área en la ***media***

Is it the mean number of cell nuclei? Cell nuclei per mean unit of area? Something else?

Thanks

Muriel Vasconcellos Feb 7, 2008:
Could you provide enough context so that we can tell if it refers to the measurement or a body part?
