Sentence examples for compensatory arm from inspiring English sources

We therefore suggest that compensatory arm usage maintains symmetrical sensorimotor functional connectivity in one-handers.

Here we show that compensatory arm usage in individuals born without a hand (one-handers) reflects functional connectivity of spontaneous brain activity in the cortical hand region.

Tests were performed with arms crossed in front of the body to eliminate compensatory arm movements during the tests and to minimize the influence of shoulder dysfunction.

Given that the missing hand territory (used here as a seed-region) was shown to represent the residual arm, It is possible that variations in connectivity strength between the hand regions of one-handers reflect compensatory arm usage.

DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.04605.002 Since accumulating evidence links white matter microstructure with motor behaviour (Scholz et al., 2009; Sampaio-Baptista et al., 2013), we aimed to test if asymmetry of white matter microstructure would be related to compensatory arm usage, as previously assessed (Makin et al., 2013a).

There are several mismatched nucleotide pairs within stems; nearly all of these are flanked by multiple G-C pairs, suggesting that they may provide compensatory stability for these arms.

The recombinational suppression of the gene clusters is eliminated in the mutant Rec-1 [ 10], resulting in increased crossing over in the autosomal central regions and a compensatory decrease in the arms [ 9].

Figure 2 C displays the initial volumetric response in the calf (eliciting central hypovolemia) and the concomitant compensatory fluid mobilization from the arm.

They also observed that variables describing compensatory movement of the trunk and arm (trunk forward displacement while reaching for the glass and higher shoulder abduction while drinking) discriminated between patients with moderate and mild stroke impairment [ 16].

Often, compensatory activities, such as swinging the arms, forward movement of the non-supporting lower limb or extending the trunk, mask deficits in the involved lower limb [ 24].

Because the MK-based framework is a widely used tool to infer the action of natural selection, the ability to distinguish "arms race" scenarios from compensatory evolution promises to bring unique new insights into the mode of protein evolution.
