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:
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.
To assess the length-dependence of posttetanic response, twitch contractions at 10 s intervals were obtained at a variety of sarcomere lengths both prior to (P t ) and following (P t *) a tetanic contraction which was elicited at optimal length (the length which gave the strongest tetanic contraction).
Therefore, our measurements of sarcomere length in the experiments on the length-dependence of potentiation are a reasonable expression of the actual (initial) sarcomere length for these conditions.
In spite of the posttetanic depression which was evident in these experiments, there was a marked length-dependence of the posttetanic twitch amplitude (P t */P t ). The ratio of the posttetanic twitch to the pretetanic one decreased with increased SL (see Figure 4B).
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.
