Dogs exposed to acrylamide develop a sensorimotor peripheral neuropathy and megaoesophagus. The presence of neuropathy was confirmed electrophysiologically and histologically. Hindlimb motor conduction velocity was reduced and there was a loss of large diameter myelinated fibres in the dorsal common digital nerve and the tibial nerve. The conduction velocity of vagal motor fibres innervating th...

Although posterior tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) has been shown in both clinical and animal studies to elicit bladder-inhibitory reflexes, our understanding of the role of posterior tibial nerve (PTN) afferents that elicit these responses is significantly limited. To this end, we investigated the effects of frequency-dependant PTNS in urethane-anesthetized rats undergoing repeated urodynamic ...

An abnormal course of a nerve either through or around a muscle may yield multiple or anomalous muscle innervation. Further, if nerves are inappropriately trapped within the confines of a muscle or irregular boundaries, variant emergence of a nerve could give rise to symptoms of an entrapment neuropathy. Upon routine dissection in the Department of Anatomy at the American University of Antigua ...

Motor and/or sensory conduction velocities are used to assess peripheral nervous system disorders. Although the miniature pig represents a model of choice for long-term pharmacological experimentation, no study has so far been reported on this model in relation to the measurement of nerve conduction velocities. We developed the present technique and applied it to 34 3-18-month-old Yucatan minip...

course of elongation and maturation of peripheral nerve fibers in the cat after crush of the tibial nerve in the proximal calf. Regeneration after crush alone was compared with crush 5 mm proximal to a tight constriction of the nerve. Regeneration was monitored by the progression of excitability along the electrode arrays on the tibial and plantar nerves. The sensitivity was sufficient to recor...

MEG recordings visualized non-invasively a dynamic anterior-posterior activation in the pyramidal cell population of the human primary somatosensory cortex (S1) after posterior tibial nerve stimulation. Somatosensory evoked fields (SEFs) were recorded over the foot area in response to right posterior tibial nerve stimulation at the ankle in six normal subjects. A newly developed MEG vector beam...
