Effect of pacing rate on the human atrial strength-duration curve. (2/4)

The effect of rapid pacing on the atrial constant voltage stimulation threshold in humans has not been defined at rates applicable to those of antitachycardia pacing. The effect of pacing rate on the atrial strength-duration relation was determined in 10 patients at pacing rates between 125 and 300 beats/min to explore excitability over the range of rates used for permanent antitachycardia pacing systems. Two points that define the strength-duration curve were measured at each pacing rate: rheobase voltage--the lowest stimulus voltage that results in capture at a pulse duration of 2 ms; and chronaxie pulse duration--the threshold pulse duration at twice rheobase voltage. A permanent, tined, J-shaped pacing lead with a high current density and low polarization electrode was positioned in the right atrial appendage for cathodal stimulation. A constant voltage output, incorporating a fast recharge pulse designed to minimize electrode polarization, was used for stimulation. There was a significant increase in rheobase voltage (p = 0.009), chronaxie pulse duration (p = 0.001) and minimal threshold stimulus energy (p = 0.05) at pacing rates greater than 225 beats/min. A rheobase voltage greater than 5 V occurred in three patients at pacing rates greater than or equal to 275 beats/min. At a pacing rate of 300 beats/min, rheobase voltage had increased in 8 of 10 patients.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  (+info)

Biophysical properties of the longitudinal smooth muscle of the guinea-pig rectum. (3/4)

1. The membrane properties of the longitudinal muscle layer of the guinea-pig rectum were studied in hypertonic solution (twice the normal Krebs by addition of sucrose) by the micro-electrode technique. To produce the electrotonic potential and spike, stimulating partitions were used.2. Hypertonic solution hyperpolarized the membrane and increased the membrane resistance. However, no change in the space constant was observed before and after treatment with hypertonic solution.3. The appearance and amplitude of the spike became regular after treatment with hypertonic solution and appearance of the overshoot was consistent.4. The characteristic constants and the conduction velocity were measured in hypertonic solution.(i) The space constant of the membrane was 0.81 mm, the time constant of the electrotonic potential was 83.7 msec and the time constant of the foot of the propagated spike was 8.8 msec.(ii) The conduction velocity of the excitation measured by insertions of the two micro-electrodes was 4.4 cm/sec.(iii) The chronaxie of the membrane was 71.3 msec.5. The results obtained from the present experiments were discussed in relation to the cable theory, and it was concluded that the passive properties of the membrane of the rectal smooth muscle could be explained by the cable equations.6. The specificities of the electrical properties of rectal smooth muscle were compared with muscle from other regions of the alimentary canal.  (+info)

Properties of two unmyelinated fibre tracts of the central nervous system: lateral Lissauer tract, and parallel fibres of the cerebellum. (4/4)

1. Monoplar tungsten micro-electrodes were used to stimulate and platinun plated tungsten micro-electrodes to record from single, unmyelinated cerebellar parallel fibres and lateral Lissauer tract axons in cats. 2. Stimulation of the lateral Lissauer tract resulted in the activation of a narrow, longitudinal 'beam', much as on the cerebellar surface. 3. Following impulse conduction, parallel and Lissauer tract fibres showed a supernormal conduction velocity (up to 25% increase) and increased excitability (up to 40% increase). No subnormality was encountered following supernormality. Some Lissauer tract fibres had prolonged relative refractory periods and no supernormal periods. 4. Chronaxies ranged from 155 to 380 microseconds. 5. Single fibres exhibited a remarkable increase in conduction velocity (up to 18% and excitability (up to 40%) following a single subthreshold stimulus. The duration of this effect (up to 20 msec) was much longer than expected from membrane time constant estimates.  (+info)

EXCITATION OF NERVE FIBERS IN THE SQUID (LOLIGO PEALII) | JGP  EXCITATION OF NERVE FIBERS IN THE SQUID (LOLIGO PEALII) | JGP
1. Strength-duration data for the giant fiber of the great stellar nerve of the squid (Loligo pealii) can be approximately described by several mathematical formulations.. 2. Excitation time constants for isolated giant fibers are essentially the same as constants of the giant fibers in the intact nerve.. 3. The strength-duration curves of the fibers in the intact nerve lie higher on the voltage axis than those of the isolated fibers. It is concluded that the principal effect of other fibers upon the excitation of one fiber in a nerve trunk is that of shunting the stimulating current.. 4. Deterioration of the nerve shifts the curve upward and to the left, resulting in shorter time constants.. 5. Decreasing interelectrode distance also shifts the curve upward and to the left.. 6. Excitation time constants of the giant fibers are larger with plate electrodes than with wire or pore electrodes.. 7. The strength-duration curves of the smaller fin nerve fibers lie consistently to the right of, and the ...

VISCOSITY SOLUTIONS FOR A SYSTEM OF INTEGRO-PDES AND CONNECTIONS TO OPTIMAL SWITCHING AND CONTROL OF JUMP-DIFFUSION PROCESSES  VISCOSITY SOLUTIONS FOR A SYSTEM OF INTEGRO-PDES AND CONNECTIONS TO OPTIMAL SWITCHING AND CONTROL OF JUMP-DIFFUSION PROCESSES
We develop a viscosity solution theory for a system of nonlinear degenerate parabolic integro-partial differential equations (IPDEs) related to stochastic optimal switching and control problems or stochastic games. In the case of stochastic optimal switching and control, we prove via dynamic programming methods that the value function is a viscosity solution of the IPDEs. In our setting the value functions or the solutions of the IPDEs are not smooth, so classical verification theorems do not apply ...

Sensory strength-duration curves were obtained using percutaneous true square-wave pulses ranging from 0.1 to 20.0 ms produced by an isolated constant current stimulator. In 119 healthy volunteers sensory thresholds were measured bilaterally by stimulating the distal phalange of the little finger. In order to examine the relationship of sensory threshold and handedness the latter was assessed by means of the Edinburgh Inventory. An asymmetry of sensory threshold was found for all the subjects and this was more pronounced with shorter stimuli. Of right-handers tested 73.5% had a lower threshold on the left side while 70.8% of left-handers had a lower threshold on the right side. Although threshold asymmetry is associated with handedness this is not necessarily due to cerebral lateralization.. ...

Problems with using Extracellular Stimulation - www.neuron.yale.edu  Problems with using Extracellular Stimulation - www.neuron.yale.edu
Two more problems remain. One is that rigc.ses and rigxc.ses set up range variable plots over paths that dont exist in the new model cell--they refer to sections with the base name dend, but the new model cell has sections whose base name is dend2 (even if the base names were identical, the shape of the new cell is completely different so the paths that are good for it would probably be quite uninteresting in the new cell). The symptom is that, when the hoc parser reaches a statement that refers to a nonexistent section, NEURON emits an error message about a nonexistent section (finally a helpful error message!) and halts. The quickest fix is to edit these two ses files, identifying the code blocks that set up the windows whose graphs refer to nonexistent sections, comment them out, execute initxstim.hoc again, use the NEURON Main Menu toolbar to bring up a new shape plot, use that shape plot to set up the range variable plots that are of interest, and save new session files. This is a little ...

Neuropathic pain after brachial plexus avulsion - central and peripheral mechanisms | BMC Neurology | Full Text  Neuropathic pain after brachial plexus avulsion - central and peripheral mechanisms | BMC Neurology | Full Text
It is known that lesions of the substantia gelatinosa and Lissauer Tract (LT) are associated with the occurrence of pain in cases of BPA [38]. The posterior horn of the spinal cord (PHSC) and LT are the first integration centers of the primary sensory afferents in the neuroaxis [34]. The LT is located at the apex of PHSC and its fibers are distributed longitudinally along the spinal cord [35]. About one third of its fibers are primary afferents projecting, rostral or caudally for one or more spinal segments [36]. The other fibers originate in the PHSC itself [37,39,40]. Both the medial and lateral sides of the LT contain propriospinal fibers, but only the medial component is associated with nociceptive transmission [41].. It seems that both the medial and lateral components of the LT play an important role in modulating a normal overlapping of receptive fields from different dorsal roots. As the lateral LT plays an inhibitory effect, its lesion leads to a net facilitation of the local neurons ...

Extracellular stimulation to myelinated axon - www.neuron.yale.edu  Extracellular stimulation to myelinated axon - www.neuron.yale.edu
I am trying to develop a simple axon model that represents nodes of Ranvier connected by "perfectly insulating" myelinated internodal segments. Sweeney channel mechanics are used at the nodes (sodium and leakage currents). I would like to apply stimulation to this model using the extracellular mechanism, with the extracellular potentials at the nodes of Ranvier calculated through interpolation within a FEM program (ANSYS Ansoft). Since the internodal myelinated segments are perfectly insulating, I did not add any channel mechanics or transmembrane capacitance to these segments, nor did I apply a non-zero extracellular voltage. My procedure code for creating such an axon is below ...

Non-invasive intracranial pressure measurement methodsNon-invasive intracranial pressure measurement methods
Tympanic membrane displacement (TMD) technique, proposed nearly twenty years ago by Marchbanks [16] exploits the effect of intracranial pressure on the acoustic reflex, i.e. a reflex contraction of the stapedius and tensor tympani muscles in response to a sound. Normally, vibrations of the tympanic membrane (eardrum) elicited by acoustic stimuli are transmitted through the chain of ossicles (malleus, uncus, and stapes) in the middle ear to the oval window of the cochlea. Vibrations of the footplate of stapes transmit through the oval window to the perilymph, which in turn causes the endolymph, the basilar membrane, and the organ of Corti to vibrate, activating ultimately the acoustic sensor cells, the inner hair cells of the organ of Corti. The transfer function of this complex mechanical system under physiological conditions is modulated by the action of two small muscles of the middle ear, the tensor tympani and stapedius. The tensor tympani arises from the cartilaginous portion of the ...

This papyrus looked at different case studies about injuries to different parts of the body, most notably the head. Beginning around 460 B.C., Hippocrates began to study epilepsy, and theorized that it had its origins in the brain. Hippocrates also theorized that the brain was involved in sensation, and that it was where intelligence was derived from. Hippocrates, as well as most ancient Greeks, believed that relaxation and a stress free environment was crucial in helping treat neurological disorders. In 280 B.C., Erasistratus of Chios theorized that there were divisions in the vestibular processing the brain, as well as deducing from observation that sensation was ...
Inhibitory postsynaptic potentialInhibitory postsynaptic potential
... s can be inhibited themselves through a signaling process called "depolarized-induced suppression of inhibition (DSI)" in CA1 pyramidal cells and cerebellar Purkinje cells.[10][11] In a laboratory setting step depolarizations the soma have been used to create DSIs, but it can also be achieved through synaptically induced depolarization of the dendrites. DSIs can be blocked by ionotropic receptor calcium ion channel antagonists on the somata and proximal apical dendrites of CA1 pyramidal cells. Dendritic inhibitory postsynaptic potentials can be severely reduced by DSIs through direct depolarization. Along these lines, inhibitory postsynaptic potentials are useful in the signaling of the olfactory bulb to the olfactory cortex.[12] EPSPs are amplified by persistent sodium ion conductance in external tufted cells. Low-voltage activated calcium ion conductance enhances even larger EPSPs. The hyperpolarization activated nonselective cation conductance decreases EPSP ...
