Changes in fusimotor activity during repetitive lengthening muscle contractions in decerebrate cats
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 1998)
Responses of fusimotor neurons to lengthening vs isometric contractions have been studied in decerebrate cats. Spike discharges of fusimotor neurons to the medial gastrocnemius muscle were recorded From this muscle nerve ...
Effects of age-targeted treatment of intestinal parasite infections in Serbia
(Journal of Chemotherapy, 1995)
A survey of intestinal parasite infections in schoolchildren throughout Serbia revealed an area of endemic infection where 31% of the children examined were found to be infected with Giardia lamblia, Enterobius vermicularis, ...
Naltrexone prevents ethanol-induced changes in rat thymus
(Elsevier Science Inc, New York, 1996)
Ethanol is known to suppress the immune response, but the underlying mechanism accounting for the immunosuppression is not clearly elucidated yet. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a single dose ...
Toxoplasma infection and pathological outcome of pregnancy
(Gynecologic & Obstetric Investigation, 1995)
To better evaluate the role of infection with Toxoplasma gondii in the outcome of pregnancy, 2,108 women with unsuccessful pregnancies (1,747 with spontaneous abortion, 187 with preterm delivery, 126 who delivered stillborn ...
Specific igm antibodies as parameters of toxoplasma infection in pregnancy
(Gynecologic & Obstetric Investigation, 1993)
The aim of this investigation was to determine the time of toxoplasma infection more precisely by using an indirect fluorescent antibody test and indirect hemagglutination test in 51 pregnant women whose Sabin-Feldman test ...
Risk factors for Toxoplasma infection in a reproductive age female population in the area of Belgrade, Yugoslavia
(Springer, Dordrecht, 1998)
The contribution to Toxoplasma infection of known transmission risk factors such as consumption of undercooked meat, contact with soil, and contact with cats, as well as that of age, degree of education, residence in central ...
In vivo effects of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist on hematopoietic bone marrow progenitor cells in normal mice
(John Libbey Eurotext Ltd, Montrouge, 1996)
The multiple effects of interleukin-1 (IL-1) on hematopoietic cells are mainly documented in disturbed hematopoiesis, but its production and participation during constitutive hematopoiesis are still unproven, To assess the ...
Central changes in muscle fatigue during sustained submaximal isometric voluntary contraction as revealed by transcranial magnetic stimulation
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, Clare, 1996)
Changes in responses to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) during submaximal isometric voluntary contraction (60% of maximal voluntary contraction (MVC)) of the adductor pollicis muscle and the subsequent recovery ...
Effects of cutaneous afferent input on fatigue-induced changes in fusimotor activity of decerebrate cats
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 1997)
Interaction of cutaneous and small-diameter, primarily fatigue-induced, muscle afferent inputs on fusimotor neurons has been studied in decerebrate cats. Spike discharges of fusimotor neurons to medial gastrocnemius were ...
Effect of a single dose of ethanol on granulopoiesis in female rats: Relationship to phase of estrous cycle
(Alcohol Res Documentation Inc Cent Alcohol Stud Rutgers Univ, Piscataway, 1996)
Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the acute effect of ethanol (4g/kg, IP) on granulopoiesis at two phases of the rat estrous cycle, proestrus and diestrus Day 1. Method: The following parameters were ...
