What's the difference between saccade and succade?

Saccade


Definition:

  • (n.) A sudden, violent check of a horse by drawing or twitching the reins on a sudden and with one pull.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) This series of tests included tests for pathologic nystagmus, saccades, smooth pursuit, and optokinetic nystagmus, as well as bithermal caloric testing and rotational testing.
  • (2) The following oculomotor paradigms were investigated: horizontal and vertical saccades of different sizes (10-80 degrees), smooth pursuit eye movements, optokinetic and vestibular nystagmus.
  • (3) Many subjects have a negative spike in the beginning of a saccade in electro-oculographic signals.
  • (4) In one group of patients peak eye movement velocities alone were measured during horizontal refixation saccades.
  • (5) Abducting saccades, which were slightly hypometric, displayed a marked postsaccadic centripetal drift.
  • (6) When delta phi was enlarged, first saccades were either directed near the green or the red spot (bistable response mode).
  • (7) The position of the visual receptive field of these neurons did not change after saccadic eyes displacements, but remained in-register with the tactile receptive field.
  • (8) If the fixation point remained visible (overlap condition), very short (100 ms) and rather long (220 ms) latency saccades were observed.
  • (9) (b) Does the parafoveal processing of words affect the following interword saccade?
  • (10) We concluded that VDI may be a very useful index in detecting subtle disorders in saccades conjugacy.
  • (11) When an observer moves his arm he shows more precise visual tracking of a target mounted on his fingertip-the eye lags behind the target less and makes fewer corrective saccades-than when he relaxes his arm and the experimenter moves it in a similar manner.
  • (12) Although we found clear and consistent subject-specific differences, the most common pattern in oblique visually-guided (i.e., fast) saccades reflected early dominance of the horizontal velocity signal as expressed in saccade trajectories curving away from the horizontal axis.
  • (13) Three units showed eye position-related tonic discharges with saccadic bursts.
  • (14) Analysis of our patient's behavior indicates that many types of saccadic oscillations can be explained and classified by assuming an abnormality of pause cell control over saccadic burst neurons.
  • (15) A computerized pattern recognition algorithm divided pursuit eye movements into two basic components: smooth pursuit and saccadic eye movements.
  • (16) In one subject, compensatory saccadic eye movements corrected a consistent directional asymmetry in the slow-phase response.
  • (17) We report a 73-year-old patient with an eye movement disorder characterized by paralysis of saccades and pursuit.
  • (18) Text in which familiar patterns of letters were destroyed, either by changing letter-order or letter-orientation, was read by sequences of small (less than 30') saccades made to look at every letter, or every alternate letter.
  • (19) The low-threshold region from which saccadic eye movements could be evoked with currents less than 10 microA was confined to lobule VII in two monkeys and it included a posterior part of lobule VI (lobule VIc) in another monkey.
  • (20) During the drug holidays, visually guided saccades were hypometric and had long latencies but retained a normal saccade velocity-amplitude relationship.

Succade


Definition:

  • (n.) A sweetmeat.
  • (n.) Sweetmeats, or preserves in sugar, whether fruit, vegetables, or confections.
