Sentence examples for effect on descending from inspiring English sources

It is thus tempting to speculate about the effects of the inflammation found in the present study (elevated serum CRP concentration and leucocytes concentration) on the activation of group III and IV afferent fibers and their potential effect on descending neural drive.

Whether these are achieved through effects on descending motor projections, or on re-entrant circuits into the basal ganglia, is not yet clear.

An unexpected finding was the apparent lack of effect of descending control from the PAG on the number of nociceptor-evoked Fos-positive neurones in lamina II.

We found a sex-dependent effect of TSD on descending pain pathways, since the endogenous capacity to inhibit pain was only reduced in sleep deprived females (interaction between 'sleep condition' and 'sex': p = 0.023).

In a second series of experiments, effects of the PAG on descending control of spinally-organized nociception were assessed by measuring hind paw withdrawal reflexes to noxious mechanical and heat stimulation before and after electrolytic lesion of specific columns of the PAG.

These factors have an effect on pain itself by exerting an influence on descending pain modulation in the prefrontal cortex, on peripheral cytokines and on anti-nociceptive mechanisms in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord [ 6].

Individual characteristics were selected based on descending stepwise multiple regressions.

The electrophysiological characteristics of motor neurones, and the effect of the descending pathways on the pool of spinal motor neurons, explains the increase the activity of those innervating the FT once the AT has been reached [ 29].

With regard to duloxetine's effect on overall pain severity improvement, our observations are consistent with experimental data indicating that both 5-HT and NE exert analgesic effects via descending pain pathways [ 37- 39].

An implication of these observations is that in a subduction zone water has a greater effect on solidus temperature of descending crustal material near the slab/peridotite interface than in an overlying peridotite wedge or in an underlying depleted oceanic lithosphere (200°C to 300°C temperature difference; Kushiro et al. 1968b; Grove et al. 2012).
