"Green odor" inhalation by stressed rat dams reduces behavioral and neuroendocrine signs of prenatal stress in the offspring.

Chronic maternal stress during pregnancy results in the "prenatally stressed" offspring displaying behavioral and neuroendocrine alterations that persist into adulthood. We investigated how inhalation of green odor (a mixture of equal amounts of trans-2-hexenal and cis-3-hexenol) by stressed dams might alter certain indices of prenatal stress in their offspring. These indices were depression-li...

Effects of an alpha(2)-adrenergic agonist on gastrointestinal transit, colonic motility, and sensation in humans.

To characterize alpha(2)-adrenergic control of motor and sensory functions of gastrointestinal tract and colon, we studied dose-related effects of clonidine (placebo or up to 0.3 mg po) by random assignment in 55 healthy humans. Gastrointestinal transit was measured in all subjects; in 35, we assessed colonic compliance, tone, and sensations of gas and pain during phasic distensions. Clonidine ...

The Effects of Vibration and Muscle Fatigue on Trunk Sensorimotor Control in Low Back Pain Patients

INTRODUCTION Changes in sensorimotor function and increased trunk muscle fatigability have been identified in patients with chronic low back pain (cLBP). This study assessed the control of trunk force production in conditions with and without local erector spinae muscle vibration and evaluated the influence of muscle fatigue on trunk sensorimotor control. METHODS Twenty non-specific cLBP pati...

Immediate Effects of Lumbosacral Orthosis on Postural Stability in Patients with Low Back Pain: A Preliminary Study

Background: Lumbosacral orthosis (LSO) is commonly used for the treatment of back pain. The clinical andmechanical effectiveness of this device has been repeatedly investigated in several studies; however, its sensorimotoreffectiveness has been rarely considered. Regarding this, the aim of the current study was to investigate the effect ofa non-extensible LSO on postural stabi...
