Background & Aim: A gag reflex (GR) can be a problem to compliance and delivery of dental treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of Diospyros kaki L. fruit extract in controlling gag reflex during dental treatment. Experimental: Our study was a randomized double blind controlled trial with convenient sampling on 84 patients that is candidate for ra...

background: several prognostic factors exist influencing the outcome of surgical discectomy in the patients with lumbar disc herniation (ldh). the aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between severity of preoperative impaired ankle reflex and outcomes of lumbar discectomy in the patients with l5-s1 ldh. methods: we retrospectively evaluated 181 patients (108 male and 73 female) who...

We carried out electroneuromyography of 78 patients with degenerative-dystrophic cervical and lumbar spine disorders, which were treated at the neurosurgical department Irkutsk Scientific Centre Surgery Traumatology. The results study late ENMG phenomena such as H-reflex, F-waves A-reflex obtained different stages disease using “Neuromyan” neuromyoanalyzer. predictable changes in answers proces...

Observations have been made upon the nature of early and late post-tetanic potentiation and upon post-tetanic block of presynaptic collaterals with particular reference to behavior in circumstances of varied duration and frequency of conditioning stimulation. Early potentiation is most conspicuous following brief tetani at high frequency, late potentiation following long tetani, much lower freq...

Reflex blinks provide a model system for investigating motor learning in normal and pathological states. We investigated whether high-frequency stimulation (HFS) of the supraorbital branch of the trigeminal nerve before the R2 blink component (HFS-B) decreases reflex blink gain in alert rats. As with humans (Mao JB, Evinger C. J Neurosci 21: RC151, 2001), HFS-B significantly reduced blink size ...

37 Reflex blinks provide a model system for investigating motor learning in normal and 38 pathological states. We investigated whether high frequency stimulation of the supraor39 bital branch of the trigeminal nerve before the R2 blink component (HFS-B) decreases 40 reflex blink gain in alert rats. As with humans (Mao and Evinger 2001), HFS-B signifi41 cantly reduced blink size in the first hou...
