Maximal relaxation to acetylcholine was impaired in both pulmonary hypertensive groups.
Aortic segments from NTG-treated rabbits showed a significant decrease in maximal relaxation in response to various vasodilators.
This is the minimal relaxation time scale for neuron k while τ L, k = C k g L, k is the maximal relaxation time.
The purpose of biofeedback is to stimulate the muscles to work properly and achieve maximal relaxation of the muscles in a short period of time.
Taurine 20 80 mM produced concentration-dependent relaxations of rat isolated aortic rings precontracted by 30 mM potassium chloride and 1 μM phenylephrine; the maximal relaxation was 17.17 ± 3.18% and 22.23 ± 1.83% respectively.
The effective concentrations producing approximately 50% of the maximal relaxation responses (EC50 values) were about 2.48±0.09 × 10−7 M for PDTC, and 1.87±0.10 × 10−5 mM for Vit.
The use of a nitroglycerin challenge to test physiological microcirculatory reserve allows the identification of the capillaries recruitable by maximal relaxation of the vascular smooth muscle cells; however, it cannot be ruled out that some unrecruited vessels remain.
Further, we have applied a memory function as a continuous BSW spectrum [30] given by is the incomplete gamma function, η0 the zero-shear viscosity and λ the maximal relaxation time constant.
Introduction: Decrease in diaphragmatic maximal relaxation rate (MRR) occurs early in the process of diaphragmatic fatigue and well before the diaphragm fails as a force generator; its measurement would, therefore, be especially valuable in ICU patients during a weaning trial.
τmax is the maximal relaxation time, M the molecular weight and the entanglement molecular weight Me="(4/5)ρRT/GN0 [M. Doi M, S.F. Edwards, The Theory of Polymer Dynamics Clarendon Press Oxfordrd (1986)].
We demonstrated for the first time that unlike the parent compounds which produced weak bronchodilation at the maximum used dose (10−4 M), NO steroids caused a significant bronchodilating activity up to 70% of the maximal relaxation induced by 10−4 M papaverine.
