Pain beliefs: assessment and utility
(Elsevier, 1994-10)
When pain becomes persistent, patients may abandon previously held cultural or personal beliefs about pain to form new pain beliefs that are more consistent with their persistent pain experience. The Pain Beliefs and ...
n-hexane neuropathy due to rubber cement sniffing
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1997-11)
n-Hexane neuropathy has been described after glue sniffing and industrial exposure. Onset may be subacute and reminiscent of Guillain-BarrÉ syndrome. Although the primary pathology is axonal, electrophysiologic evaluation ...
Collet-Sicard syndrome mimicking neuralgic amyotrophy
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1997-09)
A man with shoulder pain, wasting, and weakness had ipsilateral cranial nerve abnormalities. Electrodiagnostic studies supported a diagnosis of neuralgic amyotrophy, but we later demonstrated a spinal accessory mononeuropathy ...
HOME MECHANICAL VENTILATION OF CHILDREN
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 1996-08)
The medical records of 89 ventilator-assisted children followed at the University of Michigan Medical Center from 1978 to 1993 were reviewed. The status of these children was remarkably stable. Parameters of communication, ...
Localization of muscarinic M3 receptor protein and M3 receptor binding in rat brain
(Elsevier, 1994-11)
A family of receptor subtypes, defined either by molecular (ml-m5) or pharmacological (M1-M4) analysis, mediates muscarinic cholinergic neurotransmission in brain. The distribution and functions of the m3 receptor protein ...
A new technique for proving needle placement in the muscles of cadavers
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1999-04)
No abstract.
[ 18 F]fluoroethoxy-benzovesamicol, a PET radiotracer for the vesicular acetylcholine transporter and cholinergic synapses
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1998-11)
Loss of cholinergic transmission in the cortex and hippocampus is a characteristic feature of Alzheimer's disease, and visualization of functional cholinergic synapses in the brain with PET could be a useful method for ...
Patterns of sensory nerve conduction abnormalities in demyelinating and axonal peripheral nerve disorders
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1993-03)
The pattern of an abnormal median-normal sural (AMNS) sensory response is associated with acute and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (AIDP and CIDP) and considered unusual in other types of neuropathy, ...
An electrophysiological exploration of the double crush hypothesis
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1999-01)
The double crush hypothesis has not been rigorously evaluated in humans. We therefore analyzed cases of C6, C7, and C8 radiculopathy and exploited the fact that the median sensory response is of C6/C7 origin and the median ...
In Vivo Imaging of Vesicular Monoamine Transporters in Human Brain Using [ 11 C]Tetrabenazine and Positron Emission Tomography
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 1993-06)
The pharmacokinetics of [ 11 CJtetrabenazine, a high-affinity radioligand for the monoamine vesicular transporter, were determined in living human brain using in vivo imaging by positron emission tomography (PET). The ...
