Pure food diet, chiropractic and osteopathic treatment, curative gymnastics, homeopathic or herb remedies restore the natural tonicity and functioning of the stomach, liver, kidneys and intestines.
The benefit derived from these various attempts to increase the tonicity of the gastric muscle is not very apparent.
The same reversal under condition of sub-tonicity was also shown to take place in growth, where under the stimulus of light a positive acceleration took place, instead of normal retardation of growth (p.
The geo-electric response undergoes decline with growing sub-tonicity of the specimen; such specimens exhibit abnormal positive electric response under the stimulus of prick and feeble curvature under geotropic stimulus.
The interval between the A and D effects is increased with increasing sub-tonicity of the specimen.
Every individual should guard against rupture by maintaining, by proper exercise, diet, and rest, a condition of vigor and tonicity of the muscular system.
When the spermatic veins are over-distended to such an extent that their tonicity is impaired, they gradually lose their capacity for transmitting the blood, and a slowly increasing enlargement and tortuously of veins results.
It should be recognized that after ether and chloroform anesthesia, especially after chloroform, the heart muscle may be disturbed and the tonicity be lost.
Increased arterial tone ortonicity necessitates greater cardiac effort, to overcome the resistance, and hypertrophy of the heart must follow.
Cases of too frequent nocturnal emissions accompanied by languor and headache are usually caused by irritability or lack of tonicity of the sexual apparatus, particularly of the seminal vesicles and the ducts.
His sexual organs had completely regained their tonicity and without doubt, their virility.
The limp, relaxed school cannot secure them, for there is no tone without tonicity and vitality of muscle.
The followers of this school forget that there can be no tonicity without tension.
On the other hand, relaxation, while it may remove restraint, makes artistic control and tonicity impossible.
In condition of sub-tonicity the pulvinus of Mimosa responds to stimulus by an abnormal positive or erectile response.
There are innumerable grades of tonicity between the optimum and minimum.
It is very interesting that under condition of sub-tonicity diverse expressions of physiological reaction exhibit similar change of sign of normal response.
Under condition of sub-tonicity the autonomous activity of leaflet of Desmodium gyrans and of growing organs comes to a stop.
As activity of growth in a plant is an index of its healthy tone, a feeble rate of growth must be indicative of tonicitybelow par.
I was next desirous of securing specimens in which I could induce increasing sub-tonicity at will.
A still lower degree of sub-tonicity was ensured by keeping the specimen in an isolated condition for 12 hours.
I find that application of electric stimulus renews growth in specimens where, on account of extreme sub-tonicity growth has come to a state of standstill.
In this state of sub-tonicity the arrested autonomous activity is revived under the action of various stimuli.
Record showing the effect of stimulus modifying tonicity and producing staircase effect.
Similarly in growing organs, while the normal effect of stimulus is incipient contraction and retardation of growth under condition of sub-tonicity the response is by acceleration of growth.
In condition of sub-tonicity light renews pulsation of Desmodium and enhances the activity of growth.
If the menstrual crisis finds the uterine blood-vessels already deprived of tonicity through nervous exhaustion or other cause, hæmorrhage is as likely to occur as if that tonicity were only exhausted at the epoch of menstruation.
But if stimulation of the brain does not paralyze, it must increase the tonicity of the vaso-motor centre, and hence the force and regularity of the circulation.
