Physiological overshoot and the compound action potential

Hearing Research, 1993
The sensitivity of the compound action potential (CAP) of the auditory nerve of the Mongolian gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus) to an added signal was studied as a function of the state of adaptation to a masker. The masker consisted of a train of tone bursts.

Copper–homocysteine complexes and potential physiological actions

Journal of Inorganic Biochemistry, 2003
During the last 2 decades it was proposed that atherogenesis was closely related to the homeostasis of homocysteine (hCys) and/or copper. We hypothesized that the physiological action of hCys may be connected with its ability to form complexes with Cu. Our results showed the presence of two different Cu-hCys complexes.

Finding physiological responses in vestibular evoked potentials

2011 Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2011
Vestibular prostheses are regarded as a promising tool to restore lost sensation in patients with vestibular disorders. These prostheses often electrically stimulate the vestibular nerve and stimulation efficacy is evaluated by measuring the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR).

Host physiological phenotype explains pathogen reservoir potential

Ecology Letters, 2010
AbstractControl of emerging infectious diseases often hinges on identifying a pathogen reservoir, the source of disease transmission. The potential to function as a pathogen reservoir can be influenced by host lifespan, geographic provenance and phylogeny.

Potential physiological role of plant glycosidase inhibitors

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Proteins and Proteomics, 2004
Carbohydrate-active enzymes including glycosidases, transglycosidases, glycosyltransferases, polysaccharide lyases and carbohydrate esterases are responsible for the enzymatic processing of carbohydrates in plants. A number of carbohydrate-active enzymes are produced by microbial pathogens and insects responsible of severe crop losses.

Neuromedin U: physiology, pharmacology and therapeutic potential

Fundamental & Clinical Pharmacology, 2009
AbstractNeuromedin U (NmU), a multifunctional neuropeptide, belongs to a family of neuropeptides, the neuromedins. It is ubiquitously distributed with highest levels found in the gastrointestinal tract and pituitary. The conservation of structural elements of NmU across species, the widespread distribution of NmU and its receptors throughout the body ...

Preoxygenation: Physiologic Basis, Benefits, and Potential Risks

Anesthesia & Analgesia, 2017
Preoxygenation before anesthetic induction and tracheal intubation is a widely accepted maneuver, designed to increase the body oxygen stores and thereby delay the onset of arterial hemoglobin desaturation during apnea. Because difficulties with ventilation and intubation are unpredictable, the need for preoxygenation is desirable in all patients ...

Research Potentials in Voice Physiology.

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1965
This book is a compendium arising from a conference of international scientists held at the State University of New York, Upstate Medical Center, in May 1961 to review phonatory physiology; to discuss neuromuscular mechanisms of hearing and speech; to explore the use of new research tools; and to identify unsolved problems in phonation.

Physiologic basis of potentials recorded in electromyography

Muscle & Nerve, 2000
The extracellularly recorded configuration of a single muscle fiber discharge is generally appreciated to be triphasic with an initially positive deflection. However, careful attention to waveform appearance during the electrodiagnostic medicine examination reveals that both innervated and denervated muscle waveforms may display a pantheon of ...

Aerophysics Interpreting Its Potential Pilot Physiology

Journal of Intelligent & Robotic Systems, 2017
When a human pilot operates an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), there is a brain body and vision (physiological) coordination taking place between the human and the aircraft. Mainly, the UAV control-position-orientation interactions, referred as the aerophysics (similar to biophysics) take place due to pilot’s physiological interventions. In this context,
