Contraction may refer to:

In physiology:

• Muscle contraction, one that occurs when a muscle fiber lengthens or shortens
  • Uterine contraction, contraction of the uterus, such as during childbirth
• Contraction, a stage in wound healing

In linguistics:

• Poetic contraction, the omission of letters in a word for poetic reasons
• Synalepha, merging of two syllables of adjacent words
  • Elision, the loss of a sound
    • Syncope (phonetics), the loss of sounds inside a word
    • Contraction (grammar), the shortening of a word or words by loss of a sound or sounds
  • Synaeresis, the pronunciation of two vowels as a diphthong
  • Crasis, contraction of two vowels into one monophthong

In science:

• Lanthanoid contraction, the decrease in size of the ionic radius of lanthanide elements with their growing atomic number (series of Rare Earth Elements (REE) in the Mendeleev Table)
• The reverse of thermal expansion

In mathematics:

• Contraction mapping, in mathematics, a type of function on a metric space
• Contraction (operator theory)
• Edge contraction or vertex contraction, graph operations used in graph theory

Other:

• Economic contraction or recession, a reversal of economic growth; the opposite of economic expansion
• A structural rule in proof theory
  Further information: idempotency of entailment
• In sports, the (sometimes forced) elimination of a team. The opposite of expansion. Example: the elimination of several teams after the Canadian Football League's failed attempt to expand into the United States in the early 1990s.

• Systolic left ventricular function is preserved during therapeutic hypothermia, also during increases in heart rate with impaired diastolic filling.

• BACKGROUND: Systolic left ventricular function during therapeutic hypothermia is found both to improve and to decline. We hypothesized that this discrepancy would depend on the heart rate and the variables used to assess systolic function.METHODS: In 16 pigs, cardiac performance was assessed by meas

• Attenuated platelet aggregation in patients with septic shock is independent from the activity state of myosin light chain phosphorylation or a reduction in Rho kinase-dependent inhibition of myosin light chain phosphatase.

• BACKGROUND: Impaired coagulation contributes to the morbidity and mortality associated with septic shock. Whether abnormal platelet contraction adds to the bleeding tendency is unknown. Platelets contract when Ca(2+)-dependent myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) phosphorylates Ser19 of myosin light cha

• BACKGROUND: Sepsis is characterised by diminished vasopressor responsiveness. Vasoconstriction depends upon a balance: Ca(2+)-dependent myosin light-chain kinase promotes and Ca(2+)-independent myosin light-chain phosphatase (MLCP) opposes vascular smooth muscle contraction. The enzyme Rho kinase (R

• In Type I diabetic (T1DM) patients, both peaks of hyperglycaemia and increased sympathetic tone probably contribute to impair systolic and diastolic function. However, how these stressors eventually alter cardiac function during T1DM is not fully understood. In the present study, we hypothesized th
