  2. Motor neuron diseases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_neuron_diseases

    However, they are not classified as "motor neuron diseases" by the 11th edition of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-11), [26] which is the definition followed in this article.

  3. Dendritic spike - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dendritic_spike

    Figure B. is a recording of an actual action potential N.B. Actual recordings of action potentials are often distorted compared to the schematic view because of variations in electrophysiological techniques used to make the recording. In neurophysiology, a dendritic spike refers to an action potential generated in the dendrite of a neuron ...

  4. Action potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_potential

    The action potential in a normal skeletal muscle cell is similar to the action potential in neurons. [61] Action potentials result from the depolarization of the cell membrane (the sarcolemma), which opens voltage-sensitive sodium channels; these become inactivated and the membrane is repolarized through the outward current of potassium ions ...

  5. ICD-10 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICD-10

    ICD-10 is the 10th revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD), a medical classification list by the World Health Organization (WHO). It contains codes for diseases, signs and symptoms, abnormal findings, complaints, social circumstances, and external causes of injury or diseases. [1]

  6. Node of Ranvier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node_of_Ranvier

    Action potentials represent rapid reversals in voltage across the plasma membrane of axons. These rapid reversals are mediated by voltage-gated ion channels found in the plasma membrane. The action potential travels from one location in the cell to another, but ion flow across the membrane occurs only at the nodes of Ranvier. As a result, the ...

    Several medical conditions that include diabetes, arthritis, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, neuropathy and thyroid issues can lead to balancing problems as well. In such cases, an ...

  8. Neurotransmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurotransmission

    An action potential is an "all-or-none" event; neurons whose membranes have not reached threshold will not fire, while those that do must fire. Once the action potential is initiated (traditionally at the axon hillock ), it will propagate along the axon, leading to release of neurotransmitters at the synaptic bouton to pass along information to ...
