Reflex figures in the decerebrate and spinal state

open access: closedExperimental Neurology, 1976
Abstract The flexors and extensors of the hind limb of the cat were simultaneously activated by stretch of a homolateral flexor muscle or by a nocuous stimulus to the homolateral paw under the conditions of the present experiments, in which the muscles under investigation were maximally retracted after detachment of the tendons from their insertions.

Temperature and state dependence of dynamic phrenic oscillations in the decerebrate juvenile rat

open access: closedAmerican Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2007
The aim of the present study was to determine characteristics of fast oscillations in the juvenile rat phrenic nerve (Ph) and to establish their temperature and state dependence. Two different age-matched decerebrate, baro- and chemodenervated rat preparations, in vivo and in situ arterially perfused models, were used to examine three systemic ...

EEG pattern resembling wakefulness in unresponsive decerebrate state following traumatic brain-stem infarct

open access: closedElectroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1964
Abstract A case is described of an unresponsive decerebrate state following infarct of the pons and of the lowermost portion of the midbrain due to traumatic occlusion of the basilar artery. This patient exhibited an EEG pattern which was similar to that of a waking subject but which remained unmodified by somatic and auditory stimuli.

Chronic Decerebrate State in Infancy

open access: closedArchives of Neurology, 1968
THE TERM hydranencephaly designates the condition in which large portions of the cerebral hemispheres have been reduced to membranous sacs within a cranium of relatively normal size. It may be suspected in the newborn by cranial transillumination, which generally indicates a cerebral thickness of less than 1 cm. 1,2 Although this finding implies that

Transient decerebrate state and associated seizure activity

open access: closedJournal of the American College of Emergency Physicians, 1975
Decerebrate rigidity may be related to seizure activity in terms of a functional decerebrate state due to hemispheric paroxysmal activity with secondary release of brain stem postural facilitatory regions. Associated brain stem reticular disturbance may also be involved.

Observations in Electrically-Produced Epileptic Convulsions. Part III: The Post-Convulsive Decerebrate State

open access: closedJournal of Mental Science, 1949
For a few seconds after the convulsion has ceased, whilst the patient is cyanosed and the breathing forced, there is complete flaccidity of all the body muscles. The first sign of muscular activity is a contraction of the masseter muscle, which holds the mouth tightly closed.
