Tensile
Definition:

(20) In some cases, one or more microsurgical epiperineurium-fascial stitches (EPFS) along the proximal and distal stumps of a transected nerve permit their firm approximation, shifting tensile forces from the suture line over longer segments of the nerve stumps.
Tensive
Definition:
(a.) Giving the sensation of tension, stiffness, or contraction.
Example Sentences:
(1) Strong differences between the two groups are revealed by a systematic correlation study: (i) correlations of blood pressure (with respectively heart rate and total blood volume) were significant in the normotensive group but not in the hypertensive group; (ii) correlations of cardiac output (with respectively heart rate and total blood volume) were significant in both groups; (iii) correlations of renal blood flow (with respectively cardiac output and blood pressure) were significant in the hypertensive group but not in the normo tensive group.

(7) In conclusion, although both tests showed a rather low SE of a single observation for the blood pressure and heart rate responses in normo- and hyper-tensive subjects, there was a considerable individual variability.
(8) After furosemide administration, blood pressure fell down quickly in the rats with ureteral ligation and in those with captopril pretreatment, while the tensive response to furosemide was blunted by the indomethacin treatment.
(9) Fourteen parameters were investigated in the Montreal population, and the analyses indicated that, when other variables are controlled, age, pulse rate, some measure of serum lipid levels, and a family history of heart disease generally assist in the discrimination between the hyper- and normo-tensive groups, but the obesity measurement did not.
