Hypoglossal nerve: Anatomy, anatomical variations comorbidities and clinical significance

, 2019
We review the anatomical variations of the hypoglossal nerve and their surgical and clinical significance, and we report multiple diseases that affect function of the nerve leading to paresis, either unilateral or bilateral. The hypo-glossal nerve is the

Intermittent hypoxia interventions for inducing ventilatory acclimatization to high altitude?

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Accumulation of ∼200 h of hypoxia exposure (pre‐acclimatization) has been suggested to prevent the development of acute mountain sickness when a person is subsequently exposed to high altitude. These pre‐exposures are typically undertaken intermittently at or near the place of residence, primarily during sleep in hypoxic tents, and are likely ...

Cannabinoid exposure during pregnancy: Cardiorespiratory effects and offspring outcomes

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to cannabinoids has been investigated across human and animal studies to understand its impact on physiological development. Evidence suggests that early‐life cannabinoid exposure influence multiple developmental processes, extending beyond neurodevelopmental outcomes to potentially affect placental function ...

Maturation of spinal motor control through developmental changes in ion currents

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Ion channels of spinal neurons have been shown to change during development in a wide range of species. These changes occur at specific stages of development. An important developmental process is the maturation of motor control by which the body acquires new movements or refines movements already present.

Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy with Atypical Symptoms: A Rare Case of Tongue Fasciculation and Facial Muscle Weakness

Pakistan Journal of Medical Research
This case report presents a 55-year-old man, with a history of hypertension, who developed an unusual and atypical presentation of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). Over 3 months, the patient experienced progressive limb weakness

Intrinsic pH chemosensitivity of acutely dissociated medullary serotonergic and retrotrapezoid neurones

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Central respiratory chemoreceptors (CRCs) are critical for maintaining normal systemic levels of pH and PCO2. A CRC must respond to pH via intrinsic mechanisms. Here we quantified intrinsic chemosensitivity of medullary 5‐HT neurones and retrotrapezoid nucleus (RTN) neurones using acute dissociation.

CO2 chemoreflex contributions to ventilatory long‐term facilitation

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend To determine whether changes in CO2 chemoreflex sensitivity contribute to ventilatory long‐term facilitation (LTF), we tested the hypothesis that hypercapnic acute intermittent hypoxia (AIH) induces ventilatory LTF and enhances peripheral, but not central, chemoreceptor CO2 chemoreflex sensitivity.
