چکیده
• Nerve Conduction Tests (Adapted from D.J. Aidley, The Physiology of Excitable Cells, Fourth Edition, 1998, p. 53) Nerve conduction tests involve stimulating a peripheral nerve at one location and recording the resulting action potential at a second location. Surface electrodes or transcutaneous electrodes (i.e. electrodes that penetrate the skin and are placed near the nerve) can be used to stimulate and record.

OBJECTIVE: Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common endocrine diseases with micro-vascular complications and is a common cause of polyneuropathy. We studied the effect of enalapril on electrophysiologic criteria and clinical symptoms of patients with type II diabetes and sensory neuropathy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A double blind study was conducted on 45 Patients with type II diabetes and ne...

OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to investigate any relationship between serum ubiquitin levels and electroneurographic changes in peripheral nerves for patients with type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The study involved 34 patients (19 men, 15 women; mean age 46 +/- 13 years) with type 2 diabetes. Serum ubiquitin values were measured by sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorben...

Background & Aim: Epidural anesthesia is one of the anesthethic techniques for cesarean section. However, epidural anesthesia with lidocaine has some disadvantages such as delayed onset of action and short duration of analgesia. The goal of this study is to evaluate maternal sensory and motor blockade, neonatal Apgar score, and side effects of adding 50 and 100 mg tramadol to 2% lidocaine i...
متن کاملEffects of forced movements on learning: Findings from a choice reaction time task in rats
To investigate how motor sensation facilitates learning, we used a sensory-motor association task to determine whether the sensation induced by forced movements contributes to performance improvements in rats. The rats were trained to respond to a tactile stimulus (an air puff) by releasing a lever pressed by the stimulated (compatible condition) or nonstimulated (incompatible condition) forepa...
متن کاملThe effect of endurance training on dynein motor protein expression in Wistar male rats sciatic nerves with diabetic neuropathy
Introduction: Most neurodegenerative diseases are associated with the disruption of axonal transport and this might also be related to diabetes-associated disorders affecting the nervous system. Cytoplasmic dynein is a very important motor driving the movement of a wide range of cargoes toward the minus ends of microtubules. The effects of endurance training on dynein motor protein expression i...
