Sentence examples for course of contraction from inspiring English sources

The model included feedback from muscle contraction that mimicked the time course of contraction induced mucosal serotonin release, fast and slow excitatory synaptic transmission between neurons and damping of ISN activity due to AHPs.

The time course of contraction is also modified by withdrawal of male hormones (Table  1).

In agreement with the majority of researchers, it was of no surprise that soleus did not present any alteration in its time course of contraction, as its contractile properties are not significantly altered throughout early postnatal life.

Time course of contraction: The time course of soleus contraction was not altered by axotomy and the muscle remained slow-contracting in all developmental stages, in all experimental groups.

By contrast, high doses of anabolic steroids have no effect on the rates of left ventricular pressure rise (+dP/dT) or the rates of left ventricular pressure decay (−dP/dT), which indicates that these agents do not affect the time course of contraction or relaxation ([ 70, 71, 73] but c.f. [ 72]).

A study from Corriveau et al. has found that the amplitude and time course of contractions is enhanced in patients treated with thyroid hormone compared to controls [ 30].

Consistently, the time-course of contraction in diabetic rats was also slower (increased time-to-peak stress and time-to-90time-to-90time-to-90%001 and P = 0.025, respectively, Figure  2Biii, iv).

By contrast, another study demonstrated that acute application of 1 μM testosterone had no effect on either the amplitudes or time courses of contractions in ventricular myocytes isolated from adult female rats [ 113].

3. The time course of soleus contraction was not altered by axotomy and the muscle remained slow-contracting in all developmental stages in all experimental groups.

Neither TNF-α nor IL-1β had a significant effect on contraction amplitude (P = 0.758 and 0.789, respectively), Ca2+ transient amplitude (P = 0.317 and 0.313) or the time course of either contraction (P = 0.747 and 0.359) or the Ca2+ transient (P = 0.918 and 0.275), when compared with control cells incubated in NT for the same time period.

The alternative -- staying entrenched in the sunset of the Second Industrial Revolution, with fewer economic opportunities, slowing GDP, diminishing productivity, rising unemployment and an ever-more polluted environment -- is unthinkable, and would set the world on a long-term course of economic contraction and decline in the quality of people's lives.
