Influences of sinoaortic and vagally innervated vascular pressoreceptors on excitatory splenic and renal sympathetic responses to splenic receptor stimulation were investigated in anesthetized cats. These experiments demonstrated that these pressoreceptors have little apparent effect on the magnitude of splenic nerve responses to splenic receptor stimulation by capsaicin, bradykinin, or congestion. In contrast, activation of these pressoreceptors attenuated renal nerve responses to splenic receptor stimulation. Influences of sinoaortic and vagally innervated receptors on tonic sympathetic nerve activity also were evaluated. Stimulation of these receptors by small increases in arterial pressure (15-21 mmHg) caused equivalent inhibition of splenic and renal nerve activity; large increases (50-66 mmHg) caused significantly greater inhibition of renal than splenic nerve activity. These results illustrate that excitatory renal and splenic sympathetic responses to splenic receptor stimulation are not suppressed equally by pressoreceptor activation, vascular pressoreceptors can have greater inhibitory influences on tonic renal than splenic nerve activity, and vascular pressoreceptor influences on sympathetic reflexes are similar to those on tonic nerve activity.

Article Synopsis
- Synchronization in brain networks is crucial for processing information, but time delays in signal transmission can significantly influence this process, especially in more complex spiking neural networks.
- The study involves investigating synchronization conditions and dynamics in a two-dimensional network of adaptive exponential integrate-and-fire neurons, focusing on how delay impacts this behavior.
- Findings reveal that synchronization patterns depend on a combination of properties at different levels, including individual neuron characteristics, network connectivity, and long-range connections, which together affect the emergent activity patterns in the brain.
Hydrogen Sulfide (HS) Generated in the Colon Induces Neuropathic Pain by Activating Spinal NMDA Receptors in a Rodent Model of Chronic Constriction Injury.

Neuropathic pain (NP) imposes a significant burden on individuals, manifesting as nociceptive anaphylaxis, hypersensitivity, and spontaneous pain. Previous studies have shown that traumatic stress in the nervous system can lead to excessive production of hydrogen sulfide (HS) in the gut. As a toxic gas, it can damage the nervous system through the gut-brain axis.

Neuropathic pain, a prevalent complication following spinal cord injury (SCI), severely impairs the life quality of patients. No ideal treatment exists due to incomplete knowledge on underlying neural processes. To explore the SCI-induced effect on nociceptive circuits, the protein expression of c-Fos was analyzed as an indicator of neuronal activation in a rat contusion model exhibiting below-level pain.

Purpose: This narrative review identifies and summarizes current evidence for diagnostic ultrasonographic evaluation of upper extremity dynamic compressive neuropathies affecting athletes.
Methods: Relevant literature was identified using the PubMed database and then summarized.
Results: The compressive neuropathies affecting athletes we identified included: neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome, pectoralis minor syndrome, quadrilateral space syndrome, suprascapular nerve entrapment, proximal median nerve entrapment or bicipital aponeurosis/lacertus fibrosus (lacertus syndrome), radial tunnel syndrome, and cubital tunnel syndrome.
The Efficacy of Cryoneurolysis on Chronic Pain in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis; A Double-blinded Randomized Controlled Sham Trial.

Department of Regional Health Research, University of Southern Denmark, Odense, Denmark.
Background: The objective was to investigate if cryoneurolysis were superior to sham in reducing pain intensity in patients with chronic knee osteoarthritis. We hypothesized that cryoneurolysis was an effective and safe therapy to reduce chronic pain in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
Methods: The study was a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled.
