What's the difference between curved and synclastic?

Curved


Definition:

  • (imp. & p. p.) of Curve

Example Sentences:

  • (1) As a consequence, similar response curves were obtained for urine specimens containing morphine or barbiturates.
  • (2) When the data correlating DHT with protein synthesis using both labelling techniques were combined, the curves were parallel and a strong correlation was noted between DHT and protein synthesis over a wide range of values (P less than 0.001).
  • (3) These observations were confirmed by the killing curves in pooled serum obtained at peak and trough levels.
  • (4) However, there was no statistically significant difference in mean areas under the LH and FSH curves in the GnRH-treated groups.
  • (5) Regression curves indicate that although all three types of pulmonary edema can be characterized by slightly different slopes, the differences are statistically insignificant.
  • (6) In the cannulated group, significant decreases (P less than 0.05) in the area under the elimination curve (AUC), the volume of distribution at steady-state (Vdss) and the mean residence time (MRT) were observed.
  • (7) The reproducibility of the killing-curve method suggests that at least two different concentrations should be used and that a decrease in viable counts below 2 log10 after 24 hours does not exclude a synergistic action.
  • (8) The curve of mitoses peaked at the same time as that of TK activity but was only 68% as extensive.
  • (9) The effect of these drugs was estimated from the cell growth curve and DNA histogram determined by flow cytometry.
  • (10) However, there was not a relationship between the contraction curve of the gallbladder and the bile flow into the duodenum.
  • (11) The total "dose" to the tissue of individual metabolites was determined by the area under the curve (AUC).
  • (12) However, those studies used partial maximal expiratory flow volume (PMEFV) curves to assess lung function.

  • (14) They were more irregularly curved and consisted of various substances.
  • (15) The duration of action correlated with the elimination half-life of the drug (r = 0.87; P less than 0.003) and area under the plasma concentration curve (r = 0.72; P less than 0.03).

Synclastic


Definition:

  • (a.) Curved toward the same side in all directions; -- said of surfaces which in all directions around any point bend away from a tangent plane toward the same side, as the surface of a sphere; -- opposed to anticlastic.
