Sentence examples for lengthening actions from inspiring English sources

Regardless of the muscle, Hmax/Mmax was lower during lengthening than shortening actions and the Hsup/Msup ratio was higher than Hmax/Mmax during lengthening actions.

While these muscles were not subjected to the forces that occurring during eccentric (lengthening) actions, there is evidence to suggest that restricted blood flow to a working muscle may cause DOMS in that muscle [ 51].

Our findings indicate that the depression of the H-reflex amplitude during eccentric compared to concentric MVC depends mainly on the amount of inhibition induced by lengthening action.

Quercetin prolonged the presynaptic repolarization phase of the action potential, thereby lengthening action potential duration and rendering the neuron incapable of rapid and repetitive firing.

In rabbit heart preparations, we have demonstrated that risperidone markedly lengthened action potential duration and blocked the delayed rectifier current, IKr.

By lengthening the action potential, reducing the incidence of ventricular ectopy, reducing ischemia and improving left ventricular function, β-blockers lead to a significant reduction in sudden death (Brodine et al 2005).

β-blockade lengthens the action potential, thereby reducing ventricular ectopy and non-sustained ventricular tachycardia even in patients with severe heart failure (Aronson et al 2002).

Performance of eccentric (lengthening) muscle actions in muscles unaccustomed to such forces causes damage to muscle fibers.

31 A resistance training program that emphasizes dynamic exercises involving concentric (shortening) and eccentric (lengthening) muscle actions that includes major muscle groups of the upper and lower body is recommended for all adults.

Blockade of hERG currents causes lengthening of the cardiac action potential, which may produce a beneficial class III antiarrhythmic effect.

Our finding of improved survival of patients homozygous for the variant SULT1A1 rs9282861 A allele is in agreement with the hypothesis that the lower catalytic activity associated with the homozygyous AA variant genotype might lead to slower elimination of 4-OH-TAM, thus lengthening its duration of action.
