Example sentences for: length-dependence

How can you use “length-dependence” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Length-dependence of potentiation

  • In this study, the length-dependence of staircase and posttetanic twitch contraction amplitude was evaluated in skeletal muscle in vitro , at room temperature with measurement of sarcomere length.

  • Alternatively, this difference in length-dependence could be a function of the different temperatures at which the experiments were conducted.

  • Experiments conducted at 37°C have demonstrated that the magnitude of staircase potentiation is proportional to muscle length with a negative slope [ 6 7 8 9 ] . This is the case, whether the staircase is conducted at the different lengths, or the poststaircase twitch contractions are evaluated at different lengths after staircase at a given length [ 6 10 ] . Length-dependence of posttetanic potentiation has been evaluated in vitro at room temperature, and it has been reported that there is a length-dependence of potentiation, with the fractional enhancement of force being proportional to muscle length with a positive slope [ 11 ] .

  • The data available in this study cannot discern the possible mechanisms that are operating to result in a length-dependence of P t */P t . However, the observations in this paper clearly demonstrate that this length-dependence is operative at the sarcomere level, and P t */P t decreases as sarcomere length increases whether it is studied after high frequency (tetanic contraction) or after low frequency (staircase) stimulation.
