Development of short-term potentiation of respiration

Respiration Physiology, 1991
Development of short-term potentiation (STP) of respiration, which leads to the respiratory 'afterdischarge', was studied in anesthetized, paralyzed, vagotomized and glomectomized cats. Phrenic nerve activity was used as an index of respiratory output.

Short-Term Memory and Averaged Evoked Cortical Potentials

International Journal of Neuroscience, 1985
Cortical electrical activity reflected by changes in N1 and CNV evoked potentials was compared to performance on a battery of neuropsychological measures of attention and short-term memory. Results supported the hypothesis that N1 reflects the accuracy of the short term memory image.

Short-term potentiation of carotid chemoreflex

NeuroReport, 1999
Repetitive stimulation of the carotid sinus nerve (CSN) elicits a short-term potentiation (STP) of the reflex response in respiratory motor output in mammals. The input-output transformation approximates a leaky integrator with a time constant of several seconds.

Neural integration by short term potentiation

Biological Cybernetics, 1989
Neurophysiological studies in the oculomotor system suggest that an integrative operation is required in order to derive an eye position signal from a command signal which usually correlates with eye velocity. Several proposed models for a neural integrator are examined.

Short-term potentiation phenomena in the rat limbic forebrain

Brain Research, 1983
Several types of short-term postactivation potentiation (PAP) effect were examined in limbic forebrain pathways in the chronic rat. We tested 9 different stimulation sites and 1-3 target sites for each stimulation site. All pathways showed PAP effects following activation by single electrical pulses or pulse trains.

Respiratory short-term potentiation (after-discharge) in elderly humans

Respiration Physiology, 1993
During a ventilatory stimulus, respiratory short-term potentiation (STP, after-discharge) develops, so that ventilation after the stimulus is greater than that before the stimulus. When the stimulus is withdrawn STP gradually decays, tending to prevent hypoventilation and therefore stabilizing breathing pattern.

Short-term potentiation of breathing in humans

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1991
The purpose of this study was to determine if the increase in ventilation induced by hypoxic stimulation of the carotid bodies (CB) persists after cessation of the stimulus in humans. I reasoned that a short-term potentiation (STP) of breathing, sometimes called an “afterdischarge,” could be unmasked by combining hypoxia with exercise, because ...

Uncovering the Potential Learning in Short-Term Study Abroad

Journal of Student Affairs Research and Practice, 2022
The purpose of this quantitative study was to identify the facets of intercultural learning that might be achievable through faculty-led, short-term study abroad. Exploring changes in various facets of students’ intercultural competence pre- to post-study abroad, we found that the largest gains were in the cultural knowledge domain.

Short‐term food deprivation increases amplitudes of heartbeat‐evoked potentials

Psychophysiology, 2014
AbstractNutritional state (i.e., fasting or nonfasting) may affect the processing of interoceptive signals, but mechanisms underlying this effect remain unclear. We investigated 16 healthy women on two separate days: when satiated (standardized food intake) and after an 18‐h food deprivation period.
