Development of galanin-containing nerve fibres in rat tibia.

4 Nov 2009 Galanin exerts tonic inhibition of nociceptive input to the central nervous system. Recently, this peptide was demonstrated in several neuronal and non-neuronal structures in bones and joints. In this study, the time of appearance and topographic ... Read more...

Diffuse glaucomatous structural and functional damage in the hemifield without significant pattern loss.

30 Oct 2009 OBJECTIVES: To compare the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness and retinal sensitivity in the normal visual hemifield of glaucomatous eyes with localized visual field loss with those of normal eyes and eyes with suspected glaucoma, and to ... Read more...

Intraepidermal nerve fiber density and its application in sarcoidosis.

4 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Intraepidermal nerve fiber density (IENFD) is considered a good diagnostic tool for small fiber neuropathy (SFN). OBJECTIVES: To assess stratified normative values for IENFD and determine the reliability and validity of IENFD in ... Read more...
