Seismic air guns damage rock lobster mechanosensory organs and impair righting reflex [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2019 The effects of anthropogenic aquatic noise on marine invertebrates are poorly understood. We investigated the impact of seismic surveys on the righting reflex and statocyst morphology of the palinurid rock lobster,Jasus edwardsii, using field-based exposure to air gun signals.

The blink reflex test does not show abnormalities in a large group of patients with chronic migraine [PDF]
Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2013 The blink reflex – a simple, non-invasive and inexpensive test – may be indicative of lesions or dysfunctions of the brainstem, and particularly assesses the trigeminal-facial arch.

Reflex Inhibition of the Human Quadriceps in the Presence of Knee Joint Damage [PDF]
Physiotherapy, 1988 Quadriceps weakness can occur by atrophy and by reflex inhibition due to stimuli from a damaged knee joint. The mechanisms by which quadriceps weakness occurs are not understood enough to allow weakness to be prevented. The nature of reflex inhibition has been studied in patients undergoing arthrotomy and meniscectomy in order to find ways of ...

Match play performance characteristics that predict post-match creatine kinase responses in professional rugby union players [PDF]
, 2014 Background: Rugby union players can take several days to fully recover from competition. Muscle damage induced during the match has a major role in player recovery; however the specific characteristics of match play that predict post-match muscle damage ...

Postural compensation strategy depends on the severity of vestibular damage
Heliyon, 2017 The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of various levels of vestibular function on balance in two, free-standing rhesus monkeys. We hypothesized that postural control strategy depended on the severity of vestibular damage.

Comparative analysis of audiometric and impedancemetric findings in workers exposed to the effects of various duration industrial noise [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2010 Background/Aim. Industrial noise is produced in workshops due to factory machinery and tools used in technological processes. It has detrimental effect to primarily the organ of the sense of hearing, thus damaging hearing in oversensitive subjects.
