Abstract Purpose: Transcutaneous Posterior Tibial Nerve Stimulation (TPTNS) using adhesive skin electrodes is not commonly used due to its low efficacy. Our objective was to verify whether the combination of TPTNS with low dose Trospium chloride in the treatment of females with overactive bladder (OAB) would be more effective than TPTNS alone after failure of behavioral therapy. Materials and Methods: We randomized 30 women with OAB‚ into two groups‚ 15 patients each: Group I received 30 minutes

Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to examine how the compound action potentials propagate down the sciatic nerve of a frog based on varying stimuli. Before the nerve could be tested it needed to be extracted from the thigh of the frog and then submerged in saline. Several varying stimuli were used and recorded by a software package. The second experiment requires a constant stimulus with varying reference pin locations. From this the velocity of the action potential propagated can be

Common Fibular Nerve Lesion Following a Tibial and Fibular Spiral Fracture: a Case Report By: Jose Shimokawa SPT Introduction Tibial fractures are the most common long bone fractures and frequently associated with fibular fractures—in part‚ due to forces being transmitted across the interosseous membrane to the fibula.1 Fractures are generally managed by closed reduction or open reduction internal fixation (ORIF)‚ 2 which is usually followed by a period of immobilization. The most common impairments

emotions‚ hunger and thirst. Our spinal cord extends several types of nerve fibers from the brain acts like a switching and relay terminal for the peripheral nervous system as is stated in Mosby’s Dictionary. The 12 pairs of cranial nerves emerge directly from the brain Sensory nerves and motor nerves of the peripheral system leave the spinal cord separately between the vertebrae but unite to form 31 pairs of spinal nerves containing sensory fibers and motor fibers. More than 10 billion neurons

The vagus nerve is the tenth of the twelve brain nerves. The vagus nerve contributes to the feelings associated with infections such as appetite‚ fatigue and induction of disease behavior. It extends from the brainstem to the abdomen‚ with branches in the neck‚ thorax and abdomen 68. The vagus nerve is part of the autonomic nervous system‚ has efferent fibers‚ ascending signals from the brain to the peripheral organs‚ as well as afferent sensory fibers‚ and transmits information from the peripheral

Site Plan | I. Neurons/nerve cells A neuron is a cell specialized to conduct electrochemical impulses called nerve impulses or action potentials. Neuron is the main cellular component of the nervous system‚ a specialized type of cell that integrates electrochemical activity of the other neurons that are connected to it and that propagates that integrated activity to other neurons. They are the basic information processing structures in the CNS.
