A trauma system is an organized,coordinated effort in a defined geographic area that delivers the full range of care to all injured patients and is integrated with the local public health system.
Impairments in central nervous system(CNS)processing of peripheral sensory functions(vision,hearing,balance and olfaction)are common in autism spectrum disorders(ASDs).
The most attractive strategies to restore an injured brain are cell replacement therapies using neural stem/progenitor cells(NSPCs)to date.Key challenges of such therapies are how to direct NSPCs to d
Recent studies report a key role for spontaneous neurotransmission in regulation of synaptic plasticity,homeostasis and behavioral outcomes such as rapid antidepressant action.
The right median nerve as a peripheral portal to the central nervous system can be electrically stimulated to help coma arousal after traumatic brain injury(TBI).
At mammalian CNS,direct electrical recordings of axons and axon terminals are technically difficult and the knowledge of physiology at these compartments has been limited.
