  2. Myofascial trigger point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myofascial_trigger_point

    Further research is needed to test the reliability and validity of diagnostic criteria. Until reliable diagnostic criteria have been established, there is a need for greater transparency in research papers on how a case of MTrP pain syndrome is defined, and claims for effective interventions in treating the condition should be viewed with caution.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myofascial_pain_syndrome

    Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS), also known as chronic myofascial pain (CMP), is a syndrome characterized by chronic pain in multiple myofascial trigger points ("knots") and fascial (connective tissue) constrictions.

  6. Soft tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_tissue

    With increasing tissue deformation the collagen is gradually stretched in the direction of deformation. When taut, these fibers produce a strong growth in tissue stiffness. The composite behavior is analogous to a nylon stocking, whose rubber band does the role of elastin as the nylon does the role of collagen. In soft tissues, the collagen ...

  7. Variometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variometer

    Common types of variometers include those based on a diaphragm, a vane (horn), a taut band, or are electric based. The vane variometer consists of a rotating vane, centered by a coil spring, dividing a chamber into two parts, one connected to a static port, and the other to an expansion chamber.

  8. Tauopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tauopathy

    The primary histological characteristics include profound neuronal loss, enlarged neurons, and distinctive spherical argyrophilic inclusions known as Pick bodies (PBs). These PBs primarily consist of hyperphosphorylated tau protein, with tau protein presenting as two major bands at 60 and 64 kDa and a variable, minor band at 69 kDa.

  9. G banding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G_banding

    The reverse of G‑bands is obtained in R‑banding. Staining with Giemsa confers a purple color to chromosomes, but micrographs are often converted to grayscale to facilitate data presentation and make comparisons of results from different laboratories. [5] The less condensed the chromosomes are, the more bands appear when G-banding.
