A nosebleed (epistaxis) usually occurs in the anterior part of the nose from an area known as Kiesselbach's plexus which consists of arteries. Woodruff's plexus is a venous plexus in the posterior part and a nosebleed here accounts for only between 5 and 10 per cent of nosebleeds. Older adults are most often affected. [5]
Kiesselbach's plexus is an anastomotic arterial network (plexus) of four or five arteries in the nose supplying the nasal septum. It lies in the anterior inferior part of the septum known as Little's area, Kiesselbach's area, or Kiesselbach's triangle. It is a common site for anterior nosebleeds.
Wilhelm Kiesselbach (1 December 1839 – 4 August 1902) was a German otolaryngologist born in Hanau. From 1859 he studied medicine at the universities of Göttingen , Marburg and Tübingen . In 1877/78 he worked as assistant under Wilhelm Olivier Leube in the polyclinic at the University of Erlangen .
The venous plexus of hypoglossal canal [Note 1] is a small venous plexus surrounding the hypoglossal nerve (cranial nerve XII) [1] as it passes through the hypoglossal canal. [3] [4] [5] [better source needed] The plexus connects with the occipital sinus (intercranially), inferior petrosal sinus (intercranially), internal jugular vein (extracranially), [1] condylar vein, and paravertebral ...
The plexus is the characteristic form of nervous system in the coelenterates and persists with modifications in the flatworms.The nerves of the radially symmetric echinoderms also take this form, where a plexus underlies the ectoderm of these animals and deeper in the body other nerve cells form plexuses of limited extent.
Dalcroze eurhythmics, also known as the Dalcroze method or simply eurhythmics, is a developmental approach to music education.Eurhythmics was developed in the early 20th century by Swiss musician and educator Émile Jaques-Dalcroze and has influenced later music education methods, including the Kodály method, Orff Schulwerk and Suzuki Method.
The plexus provides motor innervation to most muscles of the soft palate (all but the tensor veli palatini muscle) and most muscles of the pharynx (all but the stylopharyngeus muscle). [1] The larynx meanwhile receives motor innervation from the vagus nerve (CN X) via its external branch of the superior laryngeal nerve and its recurrent ...
The music video for Spacedust's track depicts an exercise workout filmed on 2 August 1998 and featured an appearance by Nancy Sorrell. In an ode to exercise videos from the 1980s and 1990s, it was intentionally cheaply made with production costs for the video at over £10,000 [citation needed]. It regularly features on VH1's "worst videos" lists.
