Blocking Aδ- and C-fiber neural transmission by sub-kilohertz peripheral nerve stimulation

Frontiers in Neuroscience
IntroductionWe recently showed that sub-kilohertz electrical stimulation of the afferent somata in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) reversibly blocks afferent transmission.

Coccygodynia

Acta Clinica Croatica, 2023
The coccyx, the last segment of the spine, joins the sacrum at the base. It has three to five vertebrae, which are typically fused. In front of the sacrococcygeal junction is the ganglion impar, the only unpaired autonomic ganglion. The two sympathetic

The Neuroanatomic Basis of the Acupuncture Principal Meridians [PDF]

, 2009
Acupuncture involves treating illness by inserting needles at specified body locations (acupoints). The Principal meridians are pathways that join acupoints with related physiologic effects.

Arrhythmic risk in elderly patients candidates to transcatheter aortic valve replacement. predicative role of repolarization temporal dispersion [PDF]

, 2019
Degenerative aortic valve stenosis (AS) is associated to ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death, as well as mental stress in specific patients. In such a context, substrate, autonomic imbalance as well as repolarization dispersion abnormalities ...

Neuromodulation of the Cardiac Autonomic Nervous System for Arrhythmia Treatment

Biomedicines
This review explores current and emerging neuromodulation techniques targeting the cardiac autonomic nervous system for the treatment and prevention of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias. Arrhythmias remain a significant cause of morbidity and mortality,

Anodal block permits directional vagus nerve stimulation

Scientific Reports, 2020
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a bioelectronic therapy for disorders of the brain and peripheral organs, and a tool to study the physiology of autonomic circuits.

Mapping the cellular electrophysiology of rat sympathetic preganglionic neurones to their roles in cardiorespiratory reflex integration:A whole cell recording study in situ [PDF]

, 2014
Sympathetic preganglionic neurones (SPNs) convey sympathetic activity flowing from the CNS to the periphery to reach the target organs. Although previous in vivo and in vitro cell recording studies have explored their electrophysiological characteristics,

Ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block combined with lateral femoral cutaneous nerve block in a patient with congenital insensitivity to pain and anhidrosis: a case report

BMC Anesthesiology
Congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis (CIPA), also known as hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathies (HSAN I-V), is an exceptionally rare autosomal recessive disorder. The pathogenesis of CIPA remains not fully elucidated.

Cluster headache management and beyond [PDF]

, 2015
The therapeutic management of cluster headache is based on a very stable triad of drugs. Acute treatment has, in subcutaneous sumatriptan, its gold standard if compared to pure oxygen or indomethacin.

Pro-arrhythmic role of adrenergic spatial densities in the human atria: An in-silico study.

PLoS ONE, 2023
Chronic stress among young patients (≤ 45 years old) could result in autonomic dysfunction. Autonomic dysfunction could be exhibited via sympathetic hyperactivity, sympathetic nerve sprouting, and diffuse adrenergic stimulation in the atria.
