The ascent is oblique and low—the dicotricelevation occurs late. Two elastic vibrations (Fig. 58, XIV, e, e) occur 10 1 vibration is= 0-01613 sec. 146 ANACROTISM. in the descent, but they occur very close to the apex, while the elasticvibrations at the lower part of the curve are feebly marked. InFig. 61, A is from the posterior tibial, and B from the pedal arteryof the same individual. When measured, they give the following result:— A B 1—2 . .9-59 1—3 . . 20 20 1—4 . . 30-5 32 1-6 . 61 62-5 73. Anacrotism. As a general rule, the line of ascent of a pulse-curve has the form of an /, and isnearly vertical. The arterial walls are thrown into elastic vibration by the pulse-beat, and the number of vibrations depends greatly upon the tension of the arterialwalls. The distension of the artery, or wh
