A complicated involuntary reaction to a sudden unexpected stimulus (especially a loud noise); involves flexion of most skeletal muscles and a variety of visceral reactions.
The acoustic startleresponse and prepulse inhibition were also unaffected in both strains.
2
No hemodynamic changes associated with the startleresponse were observed.
3
Have you noticed that you have an exaggerated startleresponse?
4
The startleresponse (body twitch) was evoked by an abrupt decrease in light intensity.
5
I've never seen a startleresponse that dramatic.
6
Finally, we examined with mechanical vibration the startleresponse of free-swimming larvae in 300 mM ethanol.
7
Here, we identify molecular and circuit-level mechanisms underlying the innate threshold of the zebrafish startleresponse.
8
The babies' startleresponse was actually lower.
9
Symptoms include irritability or outbursts of anger, sleep difficulties, trouble concentrating, extreme vigilance and an exaggerated startleresponse.
10
The behavior of virgin females was studied using the light-dark box, the startleresponse test and the modified glove test.
11
Symptoms range from irritability and outbursts of anger to sleep difficulties, trouble concentrating, extreme vigilance and an exaggerated startleresponse.
12
Experts say PTSD symptoms include irritability or outbursts of anger, sleep difficulties, trouble concentrating, extreme vigilance and an exaggerated startleresponse.
13
Finally, isolation-reared rats also exhibited sensorimotor gating deficits, reflected by decreased prepulse inhibition of the startleresponse, consistent with previous studies.
14
Hyperekplexia or startle disease is characterized by an exaggerated startleresponse, evoked by tactile or auditory stimuli, producing hypertonia and apnea episodes.
15
It is defined as a reduction in magnitude of a startleresponse when a startling stimulus is preceded by a weaker "prepulse."
16
Zelandoni thumped the baby's feet and watched the infant expel breath in a startleresponse, then breathe in the first gulp of life-giving air.
