Electrical Stimulation and Magnetic Stimulation*

2023
With respect to lower urinary tract dysfunctions, electrical stimulation (ES) is applied, particularly to the pelvic floor muscles, bladder, and sacral nerve roots. The ES of the pelvic floor aims at stimulating motor fibres of the pudendal nerve, which may elicit a direct contraction of the pelvic floor muscles or the striated peri-urethral ...

THYROID STIMULATORS AND THYROID STIMULATION

Acta Endocrinologica, 1971
ABSTRACT A long-acting thyroid stimulator (LATS), distinct from pituitary thyrotrophin (TSH), is found in the serum of some patients with Graves' disease. Despite the marked physico-chemical and immunologic differences between the two stimulators, both in vivo and in vitro studies indicate that LATS and TSH act on the same thyroidal site(s) and

A gustatory stimulator

Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 2015
In order to elicit gustatory event related potentials (gERPs) a special taste delivery system is needed which allows precise control of stimulus onset and duration.Aim of this investigation was to describe the characteristics, namely onset rise-time step and onset delay time of a recently new taste delivery system based on stepper-motor, computer ...

Laxatifs stimulants [PDF]

open access: possibleCôlon & Rectum, 2009
Several drugs and herbal preparations have been called « stimulant » laxatives, because they work by stimulating intestinal motility. It is now clear that they may have effects on mucosal transport as well as motility. They are highly efficient. Nevertheless, many physicians are reluctant to recommend the use of these agents for long periods of time ...

Electrocorticography and stimulation

Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 1994
Although acute electrocorticography (ECoG) is routinely used during epilepsy surgery there is little agreement as to its value nor criteria for its interpretation. Specific issues are reviewed on the basis of the literature and personal studies: does failure to resect the entire irritative zone prejudice seizure control, and are residual discharges ...

A STIMULATOR FOR NEUROSURGERY

Archives of Neurology And Psychiatry, 1948
ELECTRICAL stimulation of the nervous system at the operating table has long been used as a means both of obtaining information to guide the course of the operation in progress and of increasing knowledge of the nervous system. Countless electrical arrangements have been used for stimulation, and much valuable work has been done with extremely simple ...

Noninvasive stimulation

2018
The cerebellum plays a fundamental role in movement execution and motor control in humans. Because of multiple cerebellar connections and a broad variety of motor and nonmotor functions, the field of cerebellar stimulation with noninvasive techniques has gained success among researchers in the last few years. These techniques allow investigation of the

Physiology of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation

Journal of ECT, 2018
Direct current stimulation is a neuromodulatory noninvasive brain stimulation tool, which was first introduced in animal and human experiments in the 1950s, and added to the standard arsenal of methods to alter brain physiology as well as psychological ...
