Decreased conduction velocity in the proximal projections of myelinated dorsal root ganglion cells in the cat.
t The myelinated primary afferent fibers arising from cells of the spinal dorsal root ganglia (DRG) have been thought to have generally constant fiber diameter and, hence, constant conduction velocity over their entire course6 except for branching terminally within the spinal cord17 and peripherally near the receptors. A similar assessment for motor neuron axons has recently been challenged by ...
متن کاملResistance to ischaemic conduction failure in chronic hypoxaemia and diabetes.
Median nerve function was studied in twelve diabetic subjects, six subjects with chronic hypoxaemia and ten control subjects. Resistance to ischaemic conduction failure (RICF), a characteristic electrophysiological feature of diabetic neuropathy, was assessed by measuring the decline in median nerve action potential amplitude at minute intervals for up to 20 minutes while the arm was rendered i...
متن کاملRapid Conduction and the Evolution of Giant Axons and Myelinated Fibers
Nervous systems have evolved two basic mechanisms for increasing the conduction speed of the electrical impulse. The first is through axon gigantism: using axons several times larger in diameter than the norm for other large axons, as for example in the well-known case of the squid giant axon. The second is through encasing axons in helical or concentrically wrapped multilamellar sheets of insu...
متن کاملThe Relationship between Nerve Conduction Studies and Electromyography Findings in Patients with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Background: Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common neuropathy in the general population. Nerve conduction studies are among the standard methods for diagnosing carpal tunnel syndrome. Electromyography is painful and unpleasant, and if nerve conduction studies can be used to diagnose axonal injury in carpal tunnel syndrome, electromyography might be replaced. Objectives: This study aimed t...
متن کاملthe relationship between learners critical thinking ability and their performance in the reading sections of the tofel and ielts test
the study reflected in this thesis aims at finding out relationships between critical thinking (ct), and the reading sections of tofel and ielts tests. the study tries to find any relationships between the ct ability of students and their performance on reading tests of tofel and academic ielts. however, no research has ever been conducted to investigate the relationship between ct and the read...
