The middle ear muscle reflex: Current and future role in assessing noise-induced cochlear damage

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2023
The middle ear muscle reflex (MEMR) in humans is a bilateral contraction of the middle ear stapedial muscle in response to moderate-to-high intensity acoustic stimuli. Clinically, MEMR thresholds have been used for differential diagnosis of otopathologies for decades.

Relationship between baroreceptor reflex function and end-organ damage in spontaneously hypertensive rats

American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 1999
The purpose of this study was to further illustrate the relationship between baroreceptor reflex sensitivity (BRS) and hypertensive end-organ damage (EOD) and to test the hypothesis that impairment of BRS aggravates EOD in hypertension. We studied baroreflex-mediated changes in heart rate [expressed as baroreceptor sensitivity to heart rate control ...

Eye gaze does not produce reflexive shifts of attention: Evidence from frontal-lobe damage

Neuropsychologia, 2006
Humans are able to predict the behavior of others using visual information. Several studies have argued that social cues, such as eye gaze direction, can influence the allocation of visual attention in a reflexive manner. We have previously shown that a patient with frontal-lobe damage, patient EVR, can use peripheral cues to direct attention but ...

Prevention of Hemolysis-Induced Organ Damage by Nutritional Activation of the Vagal Anti-Inflammatory Reflex*

Critical Care Medicine, 2013
Acute hemolysis is associated with organ damage, inflammation, and impaired vascular function. Stimulation of the cholecystokinin-1 receptor-dependent vagal anti-inflammatory reflex with lipid-rich enteral nutrition was demonstrated to prevent tissue damage and attenuate inflammation. This study investigates the effects of nutritional activation of the

Acute Effects of Lingual Nerve Damage on Orofacial Nociceptive-Induced Reflexes

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2005
PC12 cells were found to attach on PLGA nerve conduits coated with FNIII9-10 peptide best among all the groups. PC12 cells showed better cellular attachment on nerve conduit in proportion to FNIII9-10 peptide concentration. 3) The SEM view of cell-nerve conduit complexes showed that some cells in all the groups seemed to be morphologically changed from

THE INCIDENCE OF THE GRASP REFLEX FOLLOWING HEMISPHERIC LESION AND ITS RELATION TO FRONTAL DAMAGE

Brain, 1992
The grasp reflex and related prehensile phenomena were investigated in two studies. In Study 1, 491 patients consecutively admitted to the neurological wards of our department were tested with a standardized procedure. Grasping was found in 8% of brain-damaged patients and occurred predominantly in patients with single (14 cases) or multiple (10 cases)

Aspects of segmental reflex after damage of the sciatic nerve in thyroxin-treated rats

Neurophysiology, 1993
In experiments on spinalized rats, in whom the sciatic nerve was severed three weeks before, and which were given thyroxin (100 µg/kg) for three days before the acute experiment, the amplitude of the reflex firing in the ventral horn (RFVH) of segment L5 was recorded when the dorsal horn was stimulated before and 20 min after the intraperitoneal ...

[Effect of damage to the substantia nigra on conditioned reflex activity in animals].

Zhurnal vysshei nervnoi deiatelnosti imeni I P Pavlova, 1982
Effects of the Substantia nigra injury on conditioned activities were studied on rats and cats by defensive and feeding methods, respectively. Bilateral injury of the Substantia nigra led to temporary disappearance of conditioned defensive and feeding motor reflexes, to prolongation of latency and duration of motor reaction.
