  2. Central neurogenic hyperventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_neurogenic...

    Intracerebral B-cell lymphoma represents less than 1% of all primary malignant tumors of the central nervous system. [6] [1] [3] Infiltration of lymphoma cells into the pons and medulla is the most frequently reported cause of CNH, accounting for half of all CNH-inducing brain tumors, despite its considerable rarity. It has been suggested that ...

  3. Lower motor neuron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lower_motor_neuron

    Glutamate released from the upper motor neurons triggers depolarization in the lower motor neurons in the anterior grey column, which in turn causes an action potential to propagate the length of the axon to the neuromuscular junction where acetylcholine is released to carry the signal across the synaptic cleft to the postsynaptic receptors of the muscle cell membrane, signaling the muscle to ...

  4. Central nervous system fatigue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Nervous_System_Fatigue

    Central nervous system fatigue, or central fatigue, is a form of fatigue that is associated with changes in the synaptic concentration of neurotransmitters within the central nervous system (CNS; including the brain and spinal cord) which affects exercise performance and muscle function and cannot be explained by peripheral factors that affect muscle function.

  5. Cranial nerve examination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cranial_nerve_examination

    The axons from these neurons grow back into the CNS by following the existing axons—representing one of the few examples of such growth in the mature nervous system. If all of the fibers are sheared when the brain moves within the cranium, such as in a motor vehicle accident, then no axons can find their way back to the olfactory bulb to re ...

  6. Central nervous system disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_nervous_system_disease

    Central nervous system tumors are the most common forms of pediatric cancer. Brain tumors are the most frequent and have the highest mortality. [4] Some disorders, such as substance addiction, autism, and ADHD may be regarded as CNS disorders, though the classifications are not without dispute.

  7. Central nervous system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_nervous_system

    The central nervous system (CNS) is the part of the nervous system consisting primarily of the brain and spinal cord.The CNS is so named because the brain integrates the received information and coordinates and influences the activity of all parts of the bodies of bilaterally symmetric and triploblastic animals—that is, all multicellular animals except sponges and diploblasts.

  8. Inflammatory demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inflammatory_demyelinating...

    Notice that this results do not refer to general MS. In general, NMO-like spectrum without known auto-antibodies is considered MS. Principal component analysis of these cases show 3 different kinds of antibody-negative patients. The metabolite discriminators of RRMS and Ab-NMOSD suggest that these groupings have some pathogenic meaning.

  9. Central chemoreceptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_chemoreceptor

    Central chemoreceptors of the central nervous system, located on the ventrolateral medullary surface in the vicinity of the exit of the 9th and 10th cranial nerves, are sensitive to the pH of their environment.
