Defasciculation vs. Fasciculation — What's the Difference?

The separation of axons from a fascicle.

A fasciculation, or muscle twitch, is a spontaneous, involuntary muscle contraction and relaxation, involving fine muscle fibers. They are common, with as many as 70% of people experiencing them.

The prevention of muscular twitches.

A form of involuntary muscular contraction that is more intense than fibrillation, consisting of simultaneous twitching of adjacent groups of muscle fibers.

An arrangement of fasciculi.

An involuntary muscle twitch, usually localised and temporary, but that may be intensified and prolonged fatally by particular poisons and venoms such as acetylcholinesterase inhibitors.

A cluster of fascicules.

Muscular twitching of contiguous groups of muscle fibers
