What's the difference between fascicle and fasciole?

Fascicle


Definition:

  • (n.) A small bundle or collection; a compact cluster; as, a fascicle of fibers; a fascicle of flowers or roots.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) In some areas, the tumor shows a striking resemblance to Kaposi's sarcoma; criss-crossing fascicles of spindle cells are interspersed with narrow vascular spaces, but PAS-positive hyaline globules are absent.
  • (2) Pain induced by INMS in muscle nerve fascicles was projected to the muscles innervated by that fascicle and, in most instances, to areas beyond the muscular receptive field.
  • (3) with 2-6 times increased stimulation strength produced skin vasodilatation restricted to the innervation zone of the stimulated nerve fascicle.
  • (4) Total myelinated fiber density was high in the small fascicles, and it decreased as the fascicles became larger in size, approaching the values observed in the large peripheral nerves.
  • (5) Theories for the decreased antigenic reaction of nerve fascicles are proposed.
  • (6) the solitary complex and the superficial rostral cuneate fascicle, were found to contain neuronal perikarya displaying a normally weak staining which was markedly enhanced after monoaminoxidase (MAO) inhibition.
  • (7) The superior fascicle is whitish, dimmed and frequently thinner than the others and was classified under 4 patterns, according to its insertion.
  • (8) Without endocardial mapping many of these tachycardias would have been incorrectly identified as originating in the fascicles or epicardium.
  • (9) Individual fibers of all classes appeared to innervate fascicles of smooth muscle in the mesometrium of the uterine horn.
  • (10) Most examples measure less than or equal to 0.5 cm and are composed of a partially encapsulated mass of bland Schwann cells and innumerable tiny axons arranged in interlacing fascicles.
  • (11) Second, the percentages of subjects with 1 or more fascicles exceeding the proposed threshold were as follows: 45.8% for the four-component, 28.8% for the three-component, and 32.7% for the two-component contracture test.
  • (12) They aggregate to form fascicles that lie among somatic axons, being separated from them.
  • (13) The ipsilateral fascicles projected to almost all the above mentioned nuclei, but these projections were comparatively sparse.
  • (14) Biopsied fascicles of cutaneous nerves from clinically affected (forearm) and from clinically unaffected (leg) regions permitted a comparison of well-advanced and early pathologic lesions, respectively.
  • (15) Most often, however, brain stem lesions also involve structures surrounding the ocular motor nuclei or fascicles, sometimes leading to characteristic eponymic syndromes.
  • (16) Microelectrodes were inserted percutaneously into a fascicle of the peroneal nerve to measure sympathetic discharge to muscle.
  • (17) Ethylenethiourea (ETU), at greater than or equal to .5 mM concentrations, caused in monocell layers in vitro a necrosis of neuronal cells and a marked depression in the formation of neurites and fascicles without any noticeable change in the non-neuronal cells.
  • (18) At highest risk were 186 patients with blocks involving the right bundle and at least one fascicle of the left bundle which were not documented on prior electrocardiograms.
  • (19) Grafts with myotubes at right angles to the nerve fascicles supported nerve regeneration but at a slower rate.
  • (20) Microneurographic techniques were used to isolate single afferent axons within cutaneous and motor fascicles of the median and ulnar nerves at the wrist in thirteen subjects.

Fasciole


Definition:

  • (n.) A band of minute tubercles, bearing modified spines, on the shells of spatangoid sea urchins. See Spatangoidea.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The anti-fasciolics Bilevon M and to some extent also Bromsalan pulv.
