Denervation is any loss of nerve supply regardless of the cause. If the nerves lost to denervation are part of the neuronal communication to a specific...

Denervation supersensitivity/Denervation hypersensitivity is the sharp increase of sensitivity of postsynaptic membranes to a chemical transmitter after...

Renal sympathetic denervation (RSDN) is a minimally invasive, endovascular catheter based procedure using radiofrequency ablation or ultrasound ablation...

Stroke. He has documented loss of thermoregulatory function, cardiac denervation, and loss of vasoconstriction. Recurrence of the original symptoms due...

Quadrilateral space syndrome is a rotator cuff denervation syndrome in which the axillary nerve is compressed at the quadrilateral space of the rotator...

reflexes return is the hypersensitivity of reflex muscles following denervation – more receptors for neurotransmitters are expressed and are therefore...

hyperactive state in the former condition suggests the development of denervation hypersensitization even though the neurons interrupted are preganglionic...

The procerus muscle (or pyramidalis nasi) is a small pyramidal slip of muscle deep to the superior orbital nerve, artery and vein. Procerus is Latin, meaning...

(1/8%) pilocarpine may constrict the tonic pupil due to cholinergic denervation supersensitivity. A normal pupil will not constrict with the dilute dose...

Targeted lung denervation (TLD) is a procedure, that is currently being studied, to try to improve chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Evidence...

alkaline pH of the preparation. In this example, the size of the type II fibers is considerably less than the type I fibers due to denervation atrophy....

Denervation of skeletal muscle tissue secondary to poliovirus infection can lead to paralysis....

impingement, ischemia, trauma, or degeneration of nerve tissue, can cause denervation of one or more of the associated muscles. Muscle atrophy and other secondary...

finger- caused by damage to their nerve supply (denervation). There may be different causes for this denervation and muscle imbalance including: An ulnar nerve...

helpful to reveal any decelerated nerve conduction velocity, and thus denervation of the concerned muscle. Position of the teres minor muscles (shown in...

effects. Therefore, the introduction of non-surgical means of renal denervation using a radiofrequency ablation catheter was enthusiastically welcomed...

Iodine-123-meta-iodobenzylguanidine myocardial scintigraphy can help locate denervation of the muscles of the heart which can support a PD diagnosis. Secondary...

Muscle atrophy may result from various causes, including aging, disuse, denervation, muscular dystrophy, cachexia and iatrogenic injury. Deltoidal humeral...

ongoing denervation, and loss of motor units takes place. What disturbs the denervation-reinnervation equilibrium and causes peripheral denervation, though...

effects include headaches, nausea and injury to tissue. Radiofrequency denervation may provide temporary relief for specific affected areas in the neck...

grouping, a similarly nonspecific finding that indicates a cycle of denervation/reinnervation. Normally, type I and type II muscle fibers show a checkerboard-like...

non-inflammatory heart disease may display forms of parasympathetic denervation; this denervation presents in a descriptive fashion in Chagas’ disease. It has...

post-synaptic receptors. This, ultimately, leads to a condition known as denervation supersensitivity as the post-synaptic nerves will become hypersensitive...
