The model can sustain resonance only after crossing a certain threshold value of inactivation time constant of the T current. As the presence of T current did not elicit an inductive phase lead in the impedance phase profile, the sensitivity for ΦL is not presented here. Associated plots may be found in Figs 5 and S15.
