JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1966
To the Editor: In 1959 Dr. A. Diakiogiannis of Thessalonica reported an abnormal reflex sign which I believe is of significant diagnostic value. The reflex is attributed to damage of the pyramidal tracts at the spinal cord level. The sign can be elicited by lightly scratching the skin along the outer border of the tibia then down the dorsum of the ...

Abnormalities of the blink reflex in burning mouth syndrome
Pain, 1997To our knowledge, this is the first report on pain-related abnormalities of the eye blink reflex (BR) in a clinical pain patient population. The objective of this study was to evaluate the possible neuropathic mechanisms underlying the burning mouth syndrome (BMS), by means of objective electrophysiological examination of the trigemino-facial system ...

Abnormal cough reflex in canine acrylamide neuropathy
Annals of Neurology, 1989AbstractCoughing in response to irritation of the airways is a fundamental protective reflex that is dependent on rapidly adapting bronchopulmonary receptors and their vagal afferent fibers; reflex airway constriction, which is effected by vagomotor efferent fibers, usually accompanies coughing.

External Sphincter Dyssynergia: An Abnormal Continence Reflex
Journal of Urology, 1988Some of the characteristics of detrusor-external sphincter dyssynergia were examined in 14 patients with traumatic upper motor neuron lesions within 44 weeks of injury. The sacral evoked response latencies of the male patients were shortened at any time after injury.

COVID-19 can cause blink reflex abnormalities
Ideggyógyászati szemle, 2022Neurological symptoms and complications associated with coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) are well known. It was aimed to evaluate the brainstem and trigeminal/facial nerves and the pathways between these structures in COVID-19 using the blink reflex test.

Acoustic reflex abnormalities in cranial‐cervical dystonia
Neurology, 1992Previous anatomic and physiologic studies suggest brainstem dysfunction in cranial-cervical dystonia. To further explore this, we studied suprathreshold acoustic reflex waveforms in 15 such patients. A unique feature of this technique is its ability to reject movement artifacts before averaging the acoustic reflex waveforms.

THE REHABILITATION ROLE OF ABNORMAL REFLEXES
CASPIANJOURNALOF MEDICINE AND PHARMACYIn most post-stroke patients, an increase in muscle tone on the hemiplegic side is accompanied by a revival of tendon reflexes and an expansion of their reflexogenic zone, as well as the appearance of specific abnormal reflexes. All these signs have long been considered when diagnosing damage to the pyramidal system in diseases of the spinal cord and ...

Abnormalities of the Exercise Pressor Reflex in Heart Failure
Exercise and Sport Sciences Reviews, 2011Abnormal cardiovascular responses to exercise in heart failure contribute significantly to the morbidity and mortality in the patient population. These abnormal responses may be the result of peripheral impairment in the skeletal muscle and the neurons that innervate the muscle.
