End moraine size and shape are determined by whether the glacier is advancing, receding or at equilibrium. The longer the terminus of the glacier stays in one place, the more debris accumulate in the moraine. There are two types of end moraines: terminal and recessional. Terminal moraines mark the maximum advance of the glacier.
Cauda equina syndrome (CES) is a condition that occurs when the bundle of nerves below the end of the spinal cord known as the cauda equina is damaged. [2] Signs and symptoms include low back pain, pain that radiates down the leg, numbness around the anus, and loss of bowel or bladder control. [1] Onset may be rapid or gradual. [1]
A recessional moraine is a ridge of deposited debris that occurs when the glacier is stationary for an extended length of time. [27] This occurs when a glacier meaning the glacier is in equilibrium or has halted during retreat . The occurrence of end moraines can be useful for determining a pattern of advance, retreat, and equilibrium of a ...
Medications are used to reverse the symptoms of extrapyramidal side effects caused by antipsychotics or other drugs, by either directly or indirectly increasing dopaminergic neurotransmission. The treatment varies by the type of the EPS, but may involve anticholinergic agents such as procyclidine, benztropine, diphenhydramine, and trihexyphenidyl.
Terminal moraine of Wordie Glacier, Greenland Map of the Salpausselkä terminal moraines in Southern Finland. A terminal moraine, also called an end moraine, is a type of moraine that forms at the terminal (edge) of a glacier, marking its maximum advance. At this point, debris that has accumulated by plucking and abrasion, has been pushed by ...
Lamellar corpuscle (Pacinian corpuscle end-organ) The ultimately affected organ in a chain of events, such as a disease process (pathophysiology) or a drug's mechanism of action (sometimes called a target organ in this sense) End organ damage, disease of such organs Ambulatory blood pressure § Target organ damage; Sepsis § End-organ dysfunction
The terms ground moraine (Grundmoräne), ablation moraine (Ablationsmoräne) and push moraine (Stauchendmoräne) are explained. A distinction is made between recessional or deposited end moraines ( Satzendmoräne , material left behind by the inland ice when the ice melts) and push moraines ( Stauchendmoräne , till heaped up ahead of the ...
PPhysiography of the Valparaiso Moraine. Valparaiso Moraine at Mink Lake, north of Valparaiso, Indiana. The Valparaiso Moraine is a recessional moraine (a landform left by receding glaciers) that forms an immense U around the southern Lake Michigan basin in North America. It is a band of hilly terrain composed of glacial till and sand.
