Kinesthesia as a process of transmission of sensation in the joints postulates the existence of receptors for different types of stimuli and apropriate pathways. These are described as briefly as possible, and attention is drawn also to multipolar ganglion cells at the outside of the ligamenta cruciata of human knee joints. Their possible functional importance is the subject of a hypothetic discussion assuming that they may represent the "switchboards" for regulating both quantity and quality of the synovia.

Mesencephalic trigeminal neuron dendritic structures in the macaque.

It is presumed that the unusual central location of mesencephalic trigeminal neurons is a specialization that allows them to receive synaptic input. However, relatively few synaptic terminals were observed on the somata of mesencephalic trigeminal neurons in macaque monkeys via electron microscopy. This leaves the question of dendritic synaptic terminals open.

The physiological interactions between the peripheral and central auditory systems are crucial for auditory information transmission and perception, while reliable models for auditory neural circuits are currently lacking. To address this issue, mouse and human neural pathways are generated by utilizing a carbon nanotube nanofiber system. The super-aligned pattern of the scaffold renders the axons of the bipolar and multipolar neurons extending in a parallel direction.

Article Synopsis
- The study examined the structure of photoreceptors and neuron arrangement in the retina of the red-tail shark using light and electron microscopy.
- The retina contains a mosaic of photoreceptors including double cones, single cones, and single rods, with a ratio of approximately 3 cones to every 1.39 rods, indicating a predominance of cones.
- Findings showed complex synaptic connections in the outer plexiform layer, with differences in synaptic structures between rods and cones, which may enhance the shark's ability to resolve visual details.
Successful radiofrequency ablation of swallowing-induced atrial tachycardia arising from left superior ganglionated plexus.

A man in his early 40s developed palpitations brought on by swallowing and was found to have short runs of atrial tachycardia induced by swallowing solid food. Atrial tachycardia during swallowing was documented on electrocardiography and 24-hour Holter monitoring. No structural heart disease or esophageal disorders were found by echocardiography.
