The authors attempt to show the existence of extracardiac and intracardiac influences able to limit the conductivity of afferent channels belonging to the spinal afferent system of the heart. The data presented serve as the basis for the hypothesis that total or partial afferent blockade of this kind is affected through activation of a mechanism of ...

Diabetes is frequently accompanied by painful polyneuropathies that are mediated by enhanced neuronal excitability in the spinal cord, partly because of decrease in spinal intrinsic inhibitory influences. Changes in spinal excitatory-inhibitory balance may alter spinal segmental motor output. ...

A case of rhythmic myoclonus affecting only the lower part of the body is described. This occurred as an acute self-limiting illness. The changes in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) suggested a viral infection. Clinical and electrophysiological findings indicated that the involuntary movements were arising at spinal level and were independent of suprasegmental ...

A combination of adsorption and calorimetric measurements was made to study structuring of water at cellulose acetate surfaces of varying polarity. In this work cellulose acetate powders with varying degrees of acetylation were used. The results obtained ...
We believe that investigations into back pain and spinal changes in microgravity will contribute significantly to our knowledge and understanding of factors that cause back pain and the influence of spinal cord distraction on sensory and autonomic dysfunction. This information may have clinical implications for the treatment and ...
The introduction of different functional substituents in the molecule of acetals has a very strong influence on their capacity for adding to vinyl alkyl ethers. The authors studied acetals of fatty series and also of different ethylene, acetylene, aromati...

In order to study the possible etiologic role of lead in human motor neuron disease we produced chronic lead intoxication in the chicken by daily administration of lead acetate. Control animals received sodium acetate. During life, periodic measurements were made of motor function, motor nerve conduction velocity and response amplitude. After sacrifice, ...
In vehicle systems occupational drivers might expose themselves to vibration for a long time. This may cause illness of the spinal column such as low back pain. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the influence of vibration to the spinal column. Thus the modeling of seated human body is conducted in order to evaluate the effect of ...

An acetate-fermenting strain of Methanosarcina was isolated from an acetate enrichment culture inoculated with anaerobic sludge from a waste treatment digestor. In pure culture, this organism fermented acetate in the absence of added hydrogen at rates comparable in magnitude to those found in digestor systems. This rate was ...
The authors describe the changes occurring in the spinal cord of rats subjected to crush injury of the sciatic nerve followed by low-power laser irradiation of the injured nerve. Such laser treatment of the crushed peripheral nerve has been found to mitigate the degenerative changes in the corresponding neurons of the spinal cord and induce proliferation ...

Also examines whether health status and demographic variables correlated with the quality of life in this population. Results are discussed in line with the Chinese culture and its influences on the psychosocial adjustment to ...

BackgroundSpinal pain is an important health issue for adolescents resulting in functional limitations for many and increasing the risk of spinal pain in adulthood. Whilst human and animal studies suggest nutrition could influence spinal pain, this has not been investigated in adolescents. The objective of this ...

Protein kinase C (PKC) has been shown to be an important substrate in intracellular signal transduction. Very little is known concerning its possible role in mediating opiate-induced analgesia. In the present study, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA), a selective activator of PKC, was injected intrathecally (ith) to assess its influence on the ...
The structure and electronic nature of the phosphine have a significant influence on not only the formation, but also the subsequent transformation of O,P-acetals. The O,P-acetals generated from tris(o-tolyl)phosphine [(o-tol)(3)P] underwent efficient substitution reactions with various nucleophiles. PMID:20449525
