Sentence examples for in contracture from inspiring English sources

Brooks [3] described a similar condition and believed that venous obstruction was the main factor involved in contracture formation.

In contracture, mean 'intersection'-angle (geometrically quantifiable intersection of sheet-angle projections) between β+ and β− sheet-populations increased from 86.2 ± 5.5° (slack) to 108.3 ± 5.4° (p < 0.001).

The venom caused a significant reduction in contracture response elicited by KCl (∼58 and ∼90 of reduction for 30 and 100 μg/ml, respectively, p < 0.05, n = 4).

There was a mild reduction in contracture response to exogenous acetylcholine (110 μM) in BC preparations exposed to 10 and 30 μg of venom/ml (∼4% and ∼32% of reduction, respectively, p > 0.05, n = 4) compared to basal values whereas the highest concentration (100 μg/ml) abolished it after 120 min.

Dynamic splinting has been shown effective in contracture reduction from pathologies including Trismus to plantar fasciitis.

For the MP joints, mean change in contracture was 29.0 ± 20.7 degrees following single injection or 30.3 ± 10.9 degrees following a single injection in the multiple injection phase.

Prolonged immobility of healthy joints resulted in contractures in the rat model.

For many patients, the skin thickening inhibits the flexion and extension of joints, resulting in contractures.

Neuromuscular diseases and abnormal formation of muscle or nerves cause muscle weakness and decreased fetal movement resulting in contractures [ 33].

In previously published studies that evaluated CCH treatment of a single cord treated sequentially, the mean reduction in contractures observed for MP joints (40.8 and 42.0 degrees) and PIP joints (32.7 and 32.2 degrees) were comparable to mean reduction in contractures observed following the single and multiple injection phase in this study [ 13, 14, 19].

This is especially worrying in the light of recent reviews of the effectiveness of passive stretching in people with CP, 28 30 which conclude that stretching does not produce clinically important change in contractures, function or disability.
