  • Is Blood Glucose Associated with Descending Modulation of Spinal Nociception As Measured by the Nociceptive Flexion Reflex?
    Journal of Pain Research Dovepress open access to scientific and medical research Open Access Full Text Article ORIGINAL RESEARCH Is blood glucose associated with descending modulation of spinal nociception as measured by the nociceptive flexion reflex? Ellen L Terry Objectives: Prior research has shown a relationship between blood glucose levels and some Yvette M Güereca forms of self-regulation (eg, executive function), with low blood glucose levels associated with Satin L Martin impaired self-regulation. Further, engagement in self-regulation tasks depletes blood glucose. Jamie L Rhudy Given these relationships, the present study examined whether blood glucose is associated with another form of self-regulation, ie, descending pain modulatory processes. Department of Psychology, The University of Tulsa, Tulsa, OK, USA Methods: Forty-seven (32 female) pain-free participants were recruited and completed testing. Blood glucose was measured from finger sticks and a digital meter before and after experimental pain tests. Pain tests included the nociceptive flexion reflex (NFR) threshold to assess descend- ing modulation of spinal nociception, but also electric pain threshold to assess perceptual pain detection. The Stroop color word naming test was also assessed before and after pain testing to examine changes in executive function. Results: Results indicated that mean blood glucose levels decreased after pain testing, but Stroop performance did not significantly change. Importantly, changes in blood glucose were correlated with NFR threshold, such that decreases in blood glucose were associated with lower NFR thresholds (reduced descending inhibition). Changes in blood glucose were unrelated to pain threshold or executive function. Conclusion: This study suggests that glucose depletion may impair performance of descend- ing inhibitory processes, without impacting the perceptual detection of pain (pain threshold).

    From: Reviews and Criticism of Vietnam War Theatrical and Television Dramas (http://www.lasalle.edu/library/vietnam/FilmIndex/home.htm) compiled by John K. McAskill, La Salle University ([email protected]) S6530 SON OF RAMBOW (GREAT BRITAIN, 2007) Credits: director/writer, Garth Jennings. Cast: Will Poulter, Bill Milner, Jules Sitruk, Charlie Thrift, Jessica Stevenson. Summary: Coming-of-age comedy set in England in 1982. Naive 11-year-old Will Proudfoot (Milner) lost his father to an aneurism and has been raised by his mother (Stevenson) as a member of the fundamentalist Plymouth Brethren sect. Will has never been permitted to watch television or see a movie, but he is nevertheless wildly imaginative, filling his books with sketches of his fantasies. At school he is excused from class whenever an educational video is shown. Sitting outside class during one such session, Will encounters Lee Carter (Poulter), a classroom terror booted into the hall by his teacher. Lee is a wild child raised by his neglectful elder brother while their wealthy parents are out of the country. He also is a budding filmmaker who desperately needs an actor for the film that he hopes will win him the BBC Screen Test competition. Lee cons Will into the job. But Will is easily swayed, especially after catching a glimpse of Sly Stallone single-handedly defeating an army of bullies on a pirate video copy of First blood. Will dons dirty vest and bandana and reports for duty in the local woods as the stuntman/star and writer of Son of Rambow. Will and Lee develop a forged-in-fire type friendship of the Rambo/Trautman sort in First blood.

  • Law Enforcement Division Bi-Weekly Field Report 1/25/09 – 2/7/09
    Law Enforcement Division Bi-Weekly Field Report 1/25/09 – 2/7/09 DISTRICT 1 CO Jason Niemi reports that a bear case from last fall was wrapped up when two individuals pled guilty to loaning a tag and failing to register the bear within 72 hours. CO Grant Emery worked a group snowmobile patrol with local deputies. Snowmobile activity was up compared to recent weeks. A total of 20 tickets were written for trail permit violations, registration violations and careless operation. CO Jason Wicklund assisted U.S. Forest Service (USFS) law enforcement officers with complaints of vehicles operating in a closed area of the Sylvania Wilderness Area. The vehicle owners were contacted and enforcement action was taken. CO Matthew Eberly was conducting a patrol on the Chassell-Portage Lake trail when he received a complaint of a snowmobile trespassing on a golf course. The snowmobile operator was found, stopped and ticketed for operating in a closed area. COs Trey Luce, Mike McDonnell and Sgt. Pete Wright worked the annual Lake Independence ice fishing derby in Big Bay over the weekend. One subject was arrested for flee and elude on a snowmobile when officers tried to affect a stop on the nearby snowmobile trail. The minor violation of having an expired trail permit changed into the more serious charge when the subject disregarded signals to stop and fled at a high rate of speed. Several citations were issued during the early morning hours of the ice fishing derby when subjects, who in hopes of improving their chances for a winning fish, had left set lines in their fishing shacks overnight.
