BACKGROUND
Injury secondary to epileptic seizure is widely documented in the literature. In particular, uncontrolled muscular contractions generated during a seizure can lead to a variety of musculoskeletal injuries.
METHODS
We present the case of a 16-year-old male who presented on two separate
Thalictrum foliolosum DC, a perennial flowering herb belonging to family Ranunculaceae and traditionally used as a tonic, antiperiodic, diuretic, febrifuge, purgative and stomachic and for the treatment of snakebite, jaundice, rheumatism, etc. AIM OF THE STUDY: To provide a critical Interactions between neurosteroids and GABA receptors have attracted particular attention in the supraoptic nucleus (SON). Although GABA(A) receptors (GABA(A)R) mediate a sustained tonic inhibitory current (I(tonic)), as well as conventional phasic inhibitory postsynaptic currents (IPSCs, I(phasic))
Eleven healthy subjects, 9 females and 2 males aged 21-23, were submitted to all night polygraphic recording and awaken in REM (Rapid Eye Movements) sleep, randomly upon tonic or phasic REM. Immediately upon awakening subjects were asked about possible dreaming according to the standardized
After denervation, most of the tonic muscle fibers, contrary to intact fibers, cannot keep for a considerable time either the potassium (K) or the acetylcholine (A) contracture. The maximal mechanical tension in response to K and A in the denervated tonic fibers is lesser than in normal. The
GABAA and GABAB receptor agonists and antagonists were administered locally in the striatum of intact and kainic acid lesioned rats. (+/-)-Baclofen, a GABAB receptor agonist, significantly decreased the level of extracellular dopamine in the striatum of intact rats. (+/-)-Phaclofen, a GABAB receptor
Although there is now abundant evidence that certain personality features constitute risk factors for negative health outcomes, personality measures have received little attention to date in the behavioral immunology literature. The present study assessed the relationship between major dimensions of
Despite findings indicating that anxiety disorders are more likely to co-occur with each other than occur in isolation, little research has explored precise areas of overlap and differentiation among comorbid pairs of anxiety disorders. Furthermore, many studies comparing phenomena across anxiety
Lesions were placed in discrete brainstem areas implicated in the generation of both tonic immobility (T1) and paradoxical sleep (PS) to examine postulated state and event correspondences between these states in the rabbit. Lesions were concentrated in the region of the nucleus locus coeruleus
We recently demonstrated in young adult humans that the sympathetic nervous system contributes to the control of resting metabolic rate via tonic beta-adrenergic receptor stimulation. In the present follow-up study we determined the respective effects of age, habitual exercise status, and sex on
Estradiol-17 beta (estradiol) inhibition of tonic (basal, as opposed to cyclic or preovulatory) serum luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) was evaluated in ewes subjected to long or short photoperiods. Nine mature Colombia ewes were ovariectomized early in the breeding
Neuronal inhibition can occur via synaptic mechanisms or through tonic activation of extrasynaptic receptors. In spinal cord, glycine mediates synaptic inhibition through the activation of heteromeric glycine receptors (GlyRs) composed primarily of α1 and β subunits. Inhibitory GlyRs are also found
The output of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) from the amygdalopirifrom cortex has been measured in anaesthetized rats using intracerebral microdialysis followed by HPLC analysis. Basal output overall of 5-HT was 2.558 +/- 0.351 fmol/20 min sampling period. Application of the 5-HT antagonist metergoline
Protein kinase A (PKA) has been reported to regulate synaptic alphabetagamma gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA(A)) receptor currents, but whether PKA regulates GABA(A) receptor peri- and extrasynaptic tonic currents is unknown. GABA(A) receptors containing alpha4 subunits are important in
Although most of the characterized insect neuropeptides have been detected by their actions on muscle contractions, not much is known about the mechanisms underlying excitation-contraction coupling. Thus we initiated a pharmacological study on the myotropic action of the peptides periviscerokinin-2
