New perspectives of studying gastrointestinal muscle function

Figure 7 A: Arrows indicate that the slope (velocity decreases at high loads. The stars indicate the preload tension; B: Force-velocity curves represented as circumferential preload tension-radius shortening velocity and preload tension-circumferential preload tension*CSA rate in SS patients (symbol O and dashed line) and controls ( and solid line). The tension-velocity data were curve fitted using Hill’s equation. Modified from previous publications by Gregersen and coworkers.
