What's the difference between deflexion and defluxion?
Deflexion
Definition:
(n.) See Deflection.
Example Sentences:

(4) The deflexion angle of the incident beam at which maximum intensity in spectral lines is obtained depends on sarcomere length as predicted by Bragg's formula.
(5) This deflexion appears to be an afterpotential, rather than a mechanical transient, since it is dependent on the duration of the preceding stimulus.
(6) In relay neurones with or without a tonic discharge component the ;dynamic on' response during a trapezoidal displacement of sinus hairs was found to be determined entirely or predominantly by the movement velocity and to be independent of the deflexion angle of a stimulus.
(7) Type C of the brain stem response (BSR) waveform (only 1 deflexion present) was revealed in 75% of tumors greater than 20 mm.
(8) The authors demonstrated experimentally that the origin of the pre-systolic deflexion, previously observed by many investigators in pressure recordings of the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery, is due to the effective atrial contraction, which, besides the pressure change, produces a blood flow from the ventricle towards the artery.
(9) The deflexion attitude of the fetal head in 223 consecutive breech deliveries was radiologically evaluated and classified into four grades.
(10) The number of components of high frequency tracings in the intrinsecoid deflexion was greater on the right ventricle.
(11) A series of 53 cases were successfully treated by deflexion osteotomy of the involved metatarsal head.
(12) An initial negative deflexion of the P-wave (qP) in the right precordial leads was recorder in these cases.
(13) Thirteen of them (19.7%) show a HV interval exceeding 55 ms or a pathological H deflexion (twisted and lasting 35 ms).
(14) This high value reflects the very small angles of cupular deflexion assessed on the basis of physical characteristics of the canal.8.
(15) The mathematical models constructed to explain the vestibular function have to take in account this response decline to coincide with the evolution of the slow phase velocity of the nystagmus, during the prolonged deflexions of the cupula produced by the clinical vestibular rotatory and caloric tests.
(16) In cases of child emergency, of considerable increase of delivery mechanism resistance, of immaturity and attitude of deflexion, an extraction by means of obstetrical forceps is performed.
(17) rotates in the opposite direction of the palatal plane, it may be concluded that the process of orthocephalization in this period is caused by the deflexion of the angle between the palatine bone and maxilla, while it before 14 d is caused by a combination of an interosseous deflexion in the palate and an upwards rotation of the palatine bone relative to the cranial base.
(18) When a diffraction line is scanned perpendicularly to the meridional plane, the light intensity shows fluctuations resembling those obtained by beam deflexion within the meridional plane.
(19) 5 min of ischemia caused inhibition of MAO activity (kynuramine as a substrate), alterations in substrate specificity and in kinetic curves form deflexion from hyperbolic type in all the brain structures investigated.
(20) Greatest deflexion sensitivity typically was at higher frequencies than could be attained in this experiment, but would be greater than the median threshold deflexion angle of 12 min found at 50 Hz.
Defluxion
Definition:
(n.) A discharge or flowing of humors or fluid matter, as from the nose in catarrh; -- sometimes used synonymously with inflammation.
Example Sentences:
(1) It serves for determining pathological conditions, such as the post-thrombotical syndrom in the case of acute deep thrombosis of the crural veins, and informs about the extent and defluxion conditions of the varicose veins as well as the sufficiency or insufficiency of the Vv.
(2) There was no patient with inhibited urinary defluxion and demonstrated lymph node metastases who lived longer than 21 months after the treatment.
(3) The phlebography informs about the morphological condition of the veinous system and the defluxion conditions.
(4) An important reduction of the degree and duration of the sphincterial phase activity, with a possible improvement of biliary defluxion into the duodenum, was observed.
(5) Lymphogranulomatosis: In this disease the radiotherapy has caused a decisive change: In these cases the recognition of the local development of the disease and its continuous spreading was decisive, and issuing from this also the simultaneous irradiation of the defluxion areas and the application of an oncolytic dose.
