Evoked skin sympathetic nerve responses in man.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Activity in human unmyelinated efferent nerve fibres was recorded from seven upper limb cutaneous nerve fascicles. The activity induced by contralateral nerve trunk stimulation or tone burst was averaged and could be compared providing the stimuli were delivered at random times and in a random sequence. The average evoked sympathetic nerve responses to nerve trunk stimulation and tone burst were identical in latency and duration.

Magnetic stimulation of the human motor cortex evokes skin sympathetic nerve activity.
Single-pulse magnetic coil stimulation (Cadwell MES 10) over the cranium induces without pain an electric pulse in the underlying cerebral cortex. Stimulation over the motor cortex can elicit a muscle twitch. In 10 subjects, we tested whether motor cortical stimulation could also elicit skin sympathetic nerve activity (SSNA; n = 8) and muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA; n = 5) in the pero...

متن کاملNeurochemistry and anatomy of the ventral medulla
The relationship between the anatomy and neurochemistry of neurons in the ventral medulla oblongata in regions that is responsible for cardiovascular, airways, and respiratory regulation was investigated. Microinjections of excitant amino acid (glutamate, 100 nl, 100 mM) were made throughout the ventral medulla in anesthetized rats. Arterial blood pressure, sympathetic nerve activity and phreni...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Slope of Amplitude Growth Function Changes of the Electrically Evoked Action Potential in Three Months after Receiving the Device in Children with Cochlear Implant
Objective: In neural response telemetry, intracochlear electrodes stimulate the auditory nerve and record the neural responses. The electrical stimulation is sent to the auditory nerve by an electrode and the resulted response, called electrically evoked compound action potential, is recorded by an adjacent electrode. The most important clinical applications of this test are evaluation and moni...
متن کاملPrimary erythromelalgia: the role of skin sympathetic nerve activity.
A 54-year-old man complained of burning pain, warm skin and erythema in his extremities. A diagnosis of primary erythromelalgia was made. Microneurography was used to clarify the role of skin sympathetic nerve activity in the pathophysiology of primary erythromelalgia. The patient showed normal skin sympathetic nerve activity but no vasoconstriction response. Aspirin activated the skin sympathe...
