Fatigable
Definition:
(a.) Easily tired.
Example Sentences:
(1) Malaise, fatigability, low-grade fever, aching chest pain and mild cough lasting a few days to a few weeks are usual.
(2) Tension responses produced by stimulating each isolated motor axon were used to find the tetanic tension of the muscle unit and to classify the unit (12) as either type S (slow twitch, fatigue resistant), type FR (fast twitch, fatigue resistant), type FI (fast twitch, intermediate fatigability), or type FF (fast twitch, highly fatigable).
(3) Myosin ATPase staining showed that about 80% of the LGM consists of type II A fibres, whilst the remainder are type II B. Physiological determination of the contractile properties of motor units indicated two classes of units: those that were relatively fatigue resistant and did not show a sag property (like fast-twitch, fatigue-resistant fibres or FR) and those that were relatively fatigable and did show a sag property (like fast-twitch, fatigable fibres or FF).
(4) The reduction in inspiratory muscle performance in the whole population could be accounted for almost entirely by four subjects who developed symptoms of "tiredness" and easy fatigability while receiving propranolol.
(5) There were some hormonal patterns characteristic of individual complaints; hot flush was associated with increased FSH and LH, and decreased E1 and E2; difficulty in falling asleep, excitability, and fatigability, with increased FSH and LH, and decreased E2; nervousness, with increased LH and decreased E2; headache, with increased LH and PRL, and decreased E2; feeling of cold, with decreased E2 and PRL; and numbness and shoulder stiffness, with decreased E2.
(6) The use of quasitrapezoidal-shaped pulses and a tripolar cuff electrode made selective activation of small motor axons possible, thus recruiting slow-twitch, fatigue-resistant muscle units before fast-twitch, fatigable units in a heterogeneous muscle.
(7) Secondary effects are fairly frequent (60%), characterized in most cases by diminished muscular strength and greater fatigability.
(8) Both soleus and extensor digitorum longus exhibited a linear relationship between fatigability (i.e., force decline after a 360-s fatigue test) and the magnitude of the twitch force following the fatigue test.
