Example sentences for: tetanic

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

  • Contractile response was measured at this length, and up to 25% longer, at which length tetanic developed tension was apparently less than 40% of the peak value at the reference length.

  • In hippocampal slice preparations, γ oscillations can be triggered by high frequency tetanic stimuli, called post-tetanic γ oscillations [ 10 11 12 13 ] . In addition to post-tetanic γ oscillations, the γ oscillations also can be elicited by metabotropic glutamate receptor agonists, carbacol, or free extracellular Mg 2+ [ 18 19 ] . In this study, we report that γ oscillations can occur in a model of a clinical disorder, namely hyperthermia.

  • Tetanic stimulation at high intensity induces initial γ oscillations followed by a slow SD which resembles hyperthermic epileptiform-like population spikes followed by a slow SD.

  • The mechanism for the length-dependence of potentiation may be related to length-dependence of activation, as suggested previously [ 6 ] . It was argued that the rightward shift in the control force-length relation during twitch (in comparison with tetanic) contractions is apparently due to enhanced sensitivity to Ca 2+as muscle length is increased [ 13 30 ] . Since regulatory light chain phosphorylation also results in increased sensitivity to Ca 2+ [ 31 ] , then it may be that there is a ceiling effect, and the two mechanisms are not simply additive.

  • The first twitch contraction was obtained 30 s after the tetanic contraction, and the subsequent twitches were collected with 10 s intervals.
