Example Sentences:
(1) Preload (the diastolic diameter of the left ventricle) was within normal limits, while afterload (end-systolic meridional wall stress) was significantly decreased in the acromegalic group.
(2) When a meridional-size lens is used to provide magnification in the horizonal meridan for one eye the resulting stereopsis distortion is readily accounted for in the terms of the binocular disparity caused by changed angular relations.
(3) Acuity for the direction of drift for these stimuli is of the same order of precision as orientation acuity for static or drifting gratings, and exhibits a meridional anisotropy that favours the principal meridians.
(4) Intraoperative end-systolic meridional and circumferential stresses fell significantly in patients with aortic stenosis but remained unchanged in those with aortic regurgitation.
(5) Amblyopia was due to anisometropia in 24 cases (50%), strabismus in 9 cases (18.7%), high astigmatism (meridional) in 7 cases (14.5%) and other causes or a combination of factors in 8 cases (16.7%).
(6) On the optical diffraction patterns from isolated I-disks the meridional reflections measuring 38.5, 19.2, 12.8 nm are present.
(7) Contrast (modulation) sensitivities for gratings of various spatial frequencies and orientations have been determined for meridional amblyopes.
(8) Left ventricular end-systolic meridional wall stress (Ses) was then calculated.
(9) We conclude that the meridional anisotropy of orientation discrimination, which favours the vertical and horizontal is a result, in part, of the influence of non-visual mechanisms.
(10) From these data, meridional stress at end systole was calculated and stress-dimension and stress-shortening relations were derived; measurements of metabolic parameters were made simultaneously.
(11) The intensity changes observed in the low-angle meridional X-ray reflections from rat tail tendon, similarly treated, also can be explained by the presence of these bulky complexes.
(12) X-ray diffraction indicated that the original cross-beta peptide conformation remained unchanged; however, sulfate binding did produce an intense approximately 65 A meridional reflection not recorded with control peptides.
(13) Nevertheless, these features together with the behaviour of the equatorial reflections and the meridional region of the third myosin layer line indicate that a sizeable fraction of the crossbridges may become axially disposed with an actin based periodicity.
(14) The internal surface of the pars plicata and the anterior pars plana was characterized by regular meridional ridges and grooves in the younger age group but was irregular in older age group.
(15) LV pressure, meridional wall stress (sigman), wall thickness (h), and radius (R) were measured in each patient throughout the cardiac cycle.
