What's the difference between isochronism and sensitiveness?
Isochronism
Definition:
(n.) The state or quality of being isochronous.
Example Sentences:

(6) When the standard pattern consisted of equally timed (isochronic) brief tones, whose interonset intervals (IOIs) were 50, 100, or 200 msec, the accuracy in detecting an asynchrony or deviation of one tone in the sequence was about as would be predicted from older research on the discrimination of single time intervals (6%-8% at an IOI of 200 msec, 11%-12% at an IOI of 100 msec, and almost 20% at an IOI of 50 msec).
(7) Isochronal data during early systole were better fitted to a parabolic than to the linear model; however, fits to linear and parabolic models were equally good near end of systole.

(15) The routine production of 11C (T = 20.3 min), 123I (T = 13.3 h) and 28Mg (T = 21.1 h) at the Julich Isochronous Cyclotron JULIC via the 12C(p,pn) 11C-, 127I(d,6n) 123Xe(beta+, EC) 123I- and 27Al(alpha,3p) 28Mg-reaction, respectively, is described.
(16) Examples of some original programmes are: the automatic assessment of a pacemaker on the test bench, the formation of programmed impulses for electrocardiographic investigation, the analysis of arrhythmias by a histogram of the RR interval of frequency analysis, the recording of isochrones in pericardial cartography.
(17) The delayed excitation resulting from intraventricular conduction disturbance caused by infarction, as verified by the epicardial isochronic map, is also well represented by the body surface isopotential map.
(18) Emax and VO were determined in all patients from the slope and volume intercept of the isochronic pressure-volume line with the maximum time-varying elastance as described by Sagawa's model and were designated true Emax and true VO, respectively.
(19) The inverse problem of electrocardiography (specifically, that part concerned with the computation of the ventricular surface activation isochrones) is shown to be formally equivalent to the problem of identification and measurement of discontinuities in derivatives of body surface potentials.
(20) The application of a new signal processing methodology to the analysis of epicardial array ECG signals is presented as an alternative to isopotential or isochrones mapping by the use of a zero-delay wavenumber spectrum (ZDWS) estimation technique.
Sensitiveness
Definition:
Example Sentences:
(1) Our results suggest that the peripheral sensitivity to hypoxia declined more than that to CO2, implying a peripheral chemoreceptor origin for hypoxic ventilatory decline.
(2) "Zayani reportedly cited the political sensitivity of naturalising Sunni expatriates and wanted to avoid provoking the opposition," the embassy said.
(3) The outward currents are sensitive to TEA and their reversal potentials differ.
(4) Simplicity, high capacity, low cost and label stability, combined with relatively high clinical sensitivity make the method suitable for cost effective screening of large numbers of samples.
(5) At the early phase of the sensitization a T-cell response was seen in vitro, characterized by an increased spleen but no peripheral blood lymphocyte reactivity to T-cell mitogens at the same time as increased reactivity to the sensitizing antigen was detected.
(6) The presence of O-glycosidic linkages between carbohydrate and protein in the DF3 antigenic site was further supported by the presence of NaBH4-sensitive sites.
(7) This induction is sensitive to actinomycin D but not to protein synthesis inhibitor puromycin, indicating an effect of estradiol at the transcriptional level, possibly mediated by the estrogen receptor.
(8) A total of 13 ascertainments of folate sensitive autosomal fragile sites is observed, of which 10q23 fragility appears to be the most frequent.
(9) Rapid overgrowth of all cultures with the E. coli necessitated the use of selective media containing antimicrobial agents to which the E. coli was sensitive.
(10) The fluctuations in [Ca2+]i measured with fura-2 were synchronized among the population of cells observed and were sensitive to extracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]o).
(11) Thus adrenaline, via pre- and post-junctional adrenoceptors, may contribute to enhanced vascular smooth muscle contraction, which most likely is sensitized by the elevated intracellular calcium concentration.
(12) Enhanced sensitivity to ITDs should translate to better-defined azimuthal receptive fields, and therefore may be a step toward achieving an optimal representation of azimuth within the auditory pathway.
(13) A significant correlation was found between the amplitude ratio of the R2 and the sensitivity ratio of the rapid off-response at short and long wavelengths.
(14) When compared with self-reported exposures, the sensitivity of both job-exposure matrices was low (on average, below 0.51), while the specificity was generally high (on average, above 0.90).
(15) The dog and the pig also have an endoperoxide-sensitive constrictor system activated by the 11,9-(epoxymethano) analogue of PGH2 and, of particular note, ICI 79939 and its 11-oxo analogue.
