Antivenom Evaluation by Electrophysiological Analysis
Scorpion stings on humans are medically relevant because they may contain toxins that specifically target ion channels. During antivenom production, pharmaceutical companies must use a large number of experimental animals to ensure the antivenom's efficacy according to pharmacopeia methods. Here we present an electrophysiological alternative for the evaluation of horse antivenoms produced again...
متن کاملThoracic 9 Spinal Transection-Induced Model of Muscle Spasticity in the Rat: A Systematic Electrophysiological and Histopathological Characterization
The development of spinal hyper-reflexia as part of the spasticity syndrome represents one of the major complications associated with chronic spinal traumatic injury (SCI). The primary mechanism leading to progressive appearance of muscle spasticity is multimodal and may include loss of descending inhibitory tone, alteration of segmental interneuron-mediated inhibition and/or increased reflex a...
متن کاملExact solutions for wave-like equations by differential transform method
Differential transform method has been applied to solve many functional equations so far. In this article, we have used this method to solve wave-like equations. Differential transform method is capable of reducing the size of computational work. Exact solutions can also be achieved by the known forms of the series solutions. Some examples are prepared to show theefficiency and simplicity of th...
متن کاملClinical assessment of spasticity in individuals with spinal cord injury
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation on spasticity in patients with spinal cord injury. METHODS The study included eleven subjects with spinal cord injuries (C4 to T5). The modified Ashworth scale and pendulum test, which is accomplished through the Pendular Test Device - PTD (equipment which has a quartz crystal transducer accelerometer and optic fiber fle...
متن کاملAbapentin Suppresses Spasticity in the Spinal Ord–injured Rat
bstract—Spasticity poses a major detrimental impact on the uality of life in a significant number of people with spinal ord injury (SCI). Recent observations in our laboratory sugest that spinal transection at the sacral S2 level induces a ignificant increase in glutamatergic input to sacrocaudal otoneurons during the time spasticity is present in the tail uscles. The present study examined the...
