The hepatic afferentpathway has been shown to be responsive to glucoprivic as well as lipoprivic stimuli.
2
It has been established that the liver, through the afferentpathway of the vagus nerve, can influence insulin secretion.
3
We investigated NGF gene transfer to the bladder and bladder afferentpathways for treating diabetic cystopathy.
4
Conclusions: The NGF gene may be transferred and expressed in the bladder and bladder afferentpathways using HSV vectors.
5
New afferentpathways have been discovered, as well as novel properties of previously known afferents such as the midbrain dopaminergic inputs.
6
Background & aims: Cerebral evoked potential (EP) responses to visceral stimulation represent a powerful method to assess visceral afferentpathways.
7
Some airway receptors mediate or influence cough through activation of vagal afferentpathways which converge on brain stem respiratory networks and of supramedullary centres.
8
The cortical activity responsible for hallucinations results from altered or reduced input into these regions, or a loss of ascending inhibition of their afferentpathways.
9
Recording of cerebral evoked responses (EP) allows the assessment of visceral afferentpathways and gut-brain communication, but the optimal stimulation parameters remain to be established.
