  1. 1. Single unit activity in afferent and sympathetic C fibres recorded from intact human skin nerves

    Författare :Erik Torebjörk; Uppsala universitet; []

  3. 2. Ganglionic nerve fibres in ventral roots

    Författare :Magnus Karlsson; Mårten Risling; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : According to the law of Magendie, the ventral roots channel efferent nerve fibres from the spinal cord to the periphery, while the dorsal roots channel afferent axons from the periphery into the spinal cord. However, as sensory C-fibres have been observed in mammalian ventral roots outside the autonomic outflow, this law has been questioned. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Thin-fibre signalling in humans: Cortical processing of sensory afference and autonomic efference

    Författare :Karin Rylander; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :CT afferent; thin fibre; autonomic; insula; fMRI;

    Sammanfattning : Thin nerve fibres innervate the entire human body and mediate sensations such as pain, temperature and visceral sensory input. Moreover, a special class of unmyelinated afferents responsive to light touch has recently been found in humans: C-tactile (CT) fibres. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Release and effects of calcitonin gene-related peptide in myocardial ischaemia

    Författare :Göran Källner; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : A proportion of sensory C-fibres is characterized by sensitivity to the pungent agent in hot peppers, capsaicin. Upon stimulation by capsaicin, co-stored peptides including calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), are released from the peripheral terminals of these fibres. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Corticosteroids in Lumbar Disc Surgery

    Författare :Anders Lundin; Olle Nilsson; Björn Rydevik; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; lumbar disc heniation; corticosteroids; outcome; thermal quantitative sensory testing; QST; VAS; disability rating index; DRI; microscopic discectomy; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : In a prospective randomised double-blind study eighty patients with MRI verified lumbar disc herniation and corresponding clinical findings underwent microscopic disc removal. The patients were peroperatively given systemic and local corticosteroids or placebo, and followed for 2 years. LÄS MER
