What's the difference between unbrace and unfasten?
Unbrace
Definition:
(v. t.) To free from tension; to relax; to loose; as, to unbrace a drum; to unbrace the nerves.
Example Sentences:
(1) The ankle-foot orthosis was associated with less plantar flexion at foot-strike than either the AS brace or unbraced condition.
(2) Loss of correction after brace discontinuance is negligible, due to the fact that weaning and discontinuance were based on the stability of correction after 24 unbraced hours.
(3) Statistical analysis showed that while performing cutting maneuvers, braced limbs generated significantly increased shear forces compared to the same limb unbraced.
(4) Medical collateral ligament and anterior cruciate ligament peak forces, medial collateral ligament and anterior cruciate ligament tension initiation times, and impact safety factors were calculated for both braced and unbraced conditions.
(5) Twenty-two unbraced patients in Group I had 14 good, 5 fair, and 3 poor results.
(6) Over 500 impact tests were performed on the surrogate knee in unbraced versus braced conditions.
(7) We noted no statistical differences between progressive and nonprogressive or between braced and unbraced patients.
(8) During straight line running, braced limbs generated significantly less lateral and aft shear forces compared to the same limb unbraced.
(9) New orthoses for a previously braced limb or an additional orthosis for a previously unbraced limb were prescribed more frequently in previously braced patients (28 of 56 vs 9 of 48, p less than 0.02).
(10) A one-way analysis of variance for repeated measures was used to compare the gait of 19 subjects with the AS brace and unbraced and 11 subjects with the AS brace, unbraced, and with an ankle-foot orthosis.
(11) The 14 unbraced patients in Group II had one fair and 13 poor results.
(12) No timing differences were noted between the braced and unbraced conditions during swing or stance phase.
(13) Most of the braces tested significantly reduced both translations and rotations compared to the unbraced limb under static test conditions.
(14) As expected, the sound limb generated significantly greater shear forces than the unbraced involved limb during most cutting maneuvers.
(15) When braced during stance phase, the ACL deficient legs demonstrated a further reduction of 18% in quadriceps total activity and 14% in peak activity compared to the unbraced situation.
(16) Three commonly used counterforce braces (lateral elbow, medial elbow, and radial-ulnar wrist) were compared with the unbraced condition.
(17) At 90 degrees, 15 lb of passive loading could not discriminate between the braced and the unbraced knee or between the normal and ACL deficient knee.
(18) The AS brace was associated with more calcaneal stability during standing than the unbraced condition.
(19) The mean loss of correction from the first standing postoperative radiograph to one obtained two years later was 7 degrees in the braced group, and 6.3 degrees in the unbraced group, the difference not being statistically significant.
(20) A biomechanical review of the anterior cruciate ligament deficient knee shows that the unbraced knee undergoes instability once its angular velocity exceeds normal cadence rate.
Unfasten
Definition:
(v. t.) To loose; to unfix; to unbind; to untie.
Example Sentences:
(1) The clip was found to have come unfastened; simple repeat closure was performed.

(3) LTD4 levels in the muscle also increased at the fastened site just before and 3 and 6 hours after unfastening.
(4) After unfastening, the rabbits showed a gradual decline of blood pressure, and one died 7 hours after unfastening.
(5) When I mentioned this , he told me he was planning on having its voice box unfastened so it would not be so annoying, and gave me a wicked smile.
(6) On the contrary, LTD4 levels in the blood increased just before and 6 and 12 hours after unfastening.
(7) I had no arguments with the Sunderland bench, there is nothing else to say, except that it might be the first time I have ever been called soft.” Sunderland frustrate Liverpool but Klopp unfastens Allardyce’s straitjacket | Alan Smith Read more Liverpool are at West Ham United on Saturday, where Klopp could have been in the opposing dugout had the London club’s owners had their way in the summer.
(8) The amounts of LTB4, LTD4 and LTE4 in the blood and muscle were measured just before unfastening and 3, 6 and 12 hours after unfastening.
(9) Liverpool’s Raheem Sterling fails to turn up for training, citing illness Read more 2) Indulge in a little bit of misconduct What better way to unfasten yourself from your contract (and sell yourself to new employers) than to stoop to arguably the lowest rank of (un)professionalism: gross misconduct.

(11) LTE4 levels in the blood increased 3 hours, and those in the muscle 3 and 6 hours after unfastening.
(12) To open the gate one had to bend down to unfasten a latch 45 cm above ground level.
