What's the difference between paresis and paretic?
Paresis
Definition:
(n.) Incomplete paralysis, affecting motion but not sensation.
Example Sentences:

(17) The main symptom "incoordination" (ataxia, asynergy, paresis, paralysis) is used by us more precisely only in case of impairment of nervous system by neoplastic infiltrations and does not signify as possible symptoms of general physical weakness, for example faltering, staggering, tumbling or lameness.

Paretic
Definition:
(a.) Of or pertaining to paresis; affected with paresis.
Example Sentences:
(1) In each patient, both the paretic and the nonparetic eye were used for fixation.
(2) In the acute stage (less than 5 days after onset) short and long latency responses on the paretic side were abnormal, being absent in all but one patient, in whom the short latency response was delayed.
(3) In two cases, up and downshooting of the paretic eye, respectively, was noted on attempted abduction.
(4) Histopathologic studies of the brains and cords of paretic animals were carried out.

(6) The cerebrospinal fluid showed 12 lymphocytes per 1 mul and paretic colloidal curve.
(7) Twelve paretic hands were stimulated with this apparatus.
(8) The magnitude of HD did not correlate with the degree of abduction defect, and the HD was maximal to the side of the paretic lateral rectus muscle in 14 of 16 cases, with 2 cases greatest on direct lateral gaze; 6 cases, lateral upgaze; and 6 cases, lateral downgaze.
(9) Modifications in the muscle may on very rare occasions be due to a paretic origin, but they can also be of innervational origin or stem from muscular modifications secondary to the innervational deviation.
(10) Fewer agonist events (p less than 0.05) and more antagonist events (p less than 0.10) were counted in paretic than in control muscles.
(11) In case 1, 41-year-old male, developed progressive demetia, paretic gait disturbance and pyramidal signs with the duration of three years.
