Nerve

It hits the back of your eye at the retina. The retina is a layer of cells that are sensitive to light. The light triggers nerve impulses which travel to the brain via the optic nerve. The brain translates those nerve signals into what we perceive as vision. The retina is a very delicate area which requires a healthy flow of blood provided by capillaries. If those capillaries sustain damage, the retina can also sustain…

included in the report. The 75 patients were then randomly assigned to on of three groups. Patients in group one received somatic nerve blocks with a combination of lidocaine, Sarapin, vitamin B12, and dexamethasone. Patients assigned to group two received somatic nerve blocks with a combination of lidocaine, Sarapin, and B12. Patients assigned to group three received somatic nerve blocks with a combination of lidocaine, bupivacaine, and vitamin B12. These groups were seen weekly for four…

1. INTRODUCTION Over 90,000 people suffer from nervous system injuries every year (Stabenfeldt, García & Laplaca, 2006) while spinal cord injury alone affects 10,000 people each year (Prang et al., 2006). The new invention, NeuRobot, a kind of nanorobot which is defined as a controllable machine at the nanometer scale that are composed of nano-scale components and algorithmically respond to input forces and information, is believed to bring the nanotechnology to the next level and be the answer…

neurons (1). Neurons have a distinct cell shape and range from microns up to a millimeter in length. Neurons’ unique structure allows for rapid and specific transmission of signals along a neuron, and from one neuron to another. Neurons transmit nerve impulses over long and thin axons, and receive information through branches of dendrites. Although neurons are a diverse set of cells, most neurons share certain features in their structural form - the cell body, the axons and the dendrites (2).…

Parkinson’s Disease is a chronic and progressive movement disorder, meaning that the symptoms will gradually become worse over time. This disease affects about 6.3 million people worldwide, typically developing over the age of 65. The cause of this disease is generally unknown, but however it is believed to involve genetic and environmental factors. Parkinson’s impacts millions of people across the world, in the United States as many as one million Americans are affected. Approximately 60,000…

understand proliferation and the abnormalities in cell division that can lead to cancer(Unique Properties of Stem Cells). One unique property of stem cells is proliferation. Proliferation is when cells replicate many times. Unlike muscle, blood, or nerve cells, which do not normally replicate themselves, stem cells can divide and renew themselves(Unique Properties of Stem Cells). A second unique property t describe stem cells is differentiation, which is the process in which unspecialized stem…

Endodontist Can Help You with Root Canal Treatment #RootCanalTreatment is required for all those patients who have an injured nerve that probably results in losing a tooth. This therapy helps in saving your smile and prevents further tooth decay. When you suffer from bad or diseased nerve then you need an Endodontist. An Endodontist performs Root Canal treatment that is a process of removing damaged tissue present in the middle of the tooth. The space is then cleaned and filled with the white…

able to become more apparent with the help of a strong and productive nervous system; this would include any change in emotion, memory or the environment. Neurons are known as the messengers of the body. They are the nerve cells that send messages through the nervous system, while the nerve impulses send coded electrical signals from the neuron. The motor neurons carry the brain and spinal cord impulses, to the muscles and the glands, while the sensory…

have no meaning. There are many components to this beautiful labyrinth of nerves that allows us to be the marvelous humans we are. This system is complicated in itself but broken down into its peripheral, somatic, autonomic, and central functions it becomes much simpler. One integral part of the nervous system is the peripheral nervous system. This structure is full of microscopic craniospinal nerves. These specific nerves are little tree like branches connected to and from the brain and…

Research has indicated that there are a number of areas affected by the presence of alcohol, all serving developmental purposes. For example, a study by Dörrie and colleagues5 has concluded that the presence of alcohol can lead to various somatic structural abnormalities in the cerebrum and cerebellum. Dörrie and colleagues goes on to say, “At the functional level, cognition, motor coordination, attention, language development, executive functions, memory, social perception and emotion…
