Sentence examples for mean mechanical threshold from inspiring English sources

First, when direct recordings were made from teased peripheral nerve fibers in a skin-nerve preparation after the application of rapamycin or control solution, rapamycin increased the mean mechanical threshold for A-fibers and C-fibers by 58% and 54%, respectively, indicating that rapamycin had an effect on subpopulations of both C- and A-nociceptive fibers (Jimenez-Diaz et al., 2008).
