Autonomic Nervous System Autonomic Nervous System Chapter 9 Organization of autonomic neurons: CNS Preganglionic neurons Autonomic ganglion Postganglionic neurons visceral organ Autonomic Nervous System Sympathetic Division = Thoracolumbar division Preganglionic neurons paravertebral ganglion (sympathetic chain) / prevertebral ganglion postganglionic neurons visceral organ Cell bodies of Preganglionic neurons lie in lateral horns of gray matter in thoraco-lumbar part of spinal cord and enter paravertebral ganglia through white communicating ramus of spinal nerves. It travels through chain and may synapse and postganglionic nerve fiber comes out through gray ramus. Thoraco-lumbar - Sympathetic trunks (T1-T12 – L1-L2) Pre ganglionic fibers (before synapse) are shorter than postganlionic fibers Preganglionic neurons are Cholinergic and secrete Acetylcholine. Post ganglionic fibers are Adrenergic and secrete Norepinephrine formerly called noradrenalin. Mass Activation: all sympathetic neurons get simultaneously activated. fight or flight – response to unusual stimuli (emergency, excitement, exercise, embarrassment), increases activity ↑ heart rate, breathing rate, blood pressure, pupil size, bladder size Collateral Ganglia Preganglionic nerve fibers exit paravertebral ganglia below diaphragm enter prevertebral ganglia. These include: Celiac ganglion Superior mesenteric ganglion Inferior mesenteric ganglion Preganglionic nerve fibers do not synapse in paravertebral ganglia but synapse in prevertebral ganglia. Preganglionic nerve fibers above diaphragm synapse in paravertebral ganglion. Postganglionic nerve fibers innervate visceral organs. Sympathoadrenal System Adrenal Gland has outer cortex and inner medulla. Adrenal medulla is a modified sympathetic ganglion. Neurons in adrenal medulla are activated along with sympathetic division. Neurons in adrenal medulla are without axons and release mostly Epinephrine and smaller quantity of Norepinephrine into blood. Therefore, epinephrine and norepinephrine act as hormones. Somatic NS ANS • Stimulates skeletal muscles • Stimulates visceral organ • Motor neurons • Preganglionic and postganglionic neurons • No ganglia in SNS between CNS and skeletal • Autonomic ganglion between CNS and visceral muscles. organ. • Axon terminals and motor end plates • Varicosities and normal cell membrane • Only cholinergic • Both cholinergic and adrenergic Parasympathetic Division = Craniosacral division Preganglionic neurons lie in brain nuclei of cranial nerves and sacral part of spinal cord. Cranio-sacral – 3rd, 7th, 9th, 10th cranial nerves and spinal nerve cord through 2nd, 3rd, 4th sacral spinal nerves Pre ganglionic fibers are longer than post ganglionic fibers Preganglionic neurons and Post ganglionic fibers are Cholinergic and secrete Acetylcholine. Rest and Digest response: maintains house-keeping activities, conserves energy, promotes digestion, defecation and diuresis ANS - Complementary and Cooperative actions Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Divisions are mostly antagonistic in action. Complementary Action: when both divisions have similar effects on a visceral organ. For example, parasympathetic division stimulates salivary glands to secrete more saliva by stimulating more water to it and sympathetic division causes saliva to become thicker due to constriction of blood vessels. Cooperative Action: Parasympathetic and sympathetic divisions do separate acts of a bigger function. Male sexual action needs erection and ejaculation. Parasympathetic division stimulates erection by relaxing blood vessels in penis. But sympathetic division stimulates ejection to complete the function. .

This forms a complex network, which includes several types of neurons, as well as glial cells. Despite extensive studies, a comprehensive classification of these neurons is still lacking. The complexity of ENS is magnified by a multiple control of the central nervous system, and bidirectional communication between various central nervous areas and the gut occurs. This lends substance to the complexity of the microbiota–gut–brain axis, which represents the network governing homeostasis through nervous, endocrine, immune, and metabolic pathways. The present manuscript is dedicated to Citation: Natale, G.; Ryskalin, L.; identifying various neuronal cytotypes belonging to ENS in baseline conditions.

  • Anatomy of the Spine
    12 Anatomy of the Spine Overview The spine is made of 33 individual bones stacked one on top of the other. Ligaments and muscles connect the bones together and keep them aligned. The spinal column provides the main support for your body, allowing you to stand upright, bend, and twist. Protected deep inside the bones, the spinal cord connects your body to the brain, allowing movement of your arms and legs. Strong muscles and bones, flexible tendons and ligaments, and sensitive nerves contribute to a healthy spine. Keeping your spine healthy is vital if you want to live an active life without back pain. Spinal curves When viewed from the side, an adult spine has a natural S-shaped curve. The neck (cervical) and low back (lumbar) regions have a slight concave curve, and the thoracic and sacral regions have a gentle convex curve (Fig. 1). The curves work like a coiled spring to absorb shock, maintain balance, and allow range of motion throughout the spinal column. The muscles and correct posture maintain the natural spinal curves. Good posture involves training your body to stand, walk, sit, and lie so that the least amount of strain is placed on the spine during movement or weight-bearing activities. Excess body weight, weak muscles, and other forces can pull at the spine’s alignment: • An abnormal curve of the lumbar spine is lordosis, also called sway back. • An abnormal curve of the thoracic spine is Figure 1. (left) The spine has three natural curves that form kyphosis, also called hunchback. an S-shape; strong muscles keep our spine in alignment.

  • The Peripheral Nervous System
    The Peripheral Nervous System Dr. Ali Ebneshahidi Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) – Consists of 12 pairs of cranial nerves and 31 pairs of spinal nerves. – Serves as a critical link between the body and the central nervous system. – peripheral nerves contain an outermost layer of fibrous connective tissue called epineurium which surrounds a thinner layer of fibrous connective tissue called perineurium (surrounds the bundles of nerve or fascicles). Individual nerve fibers within the nerve are surrounded by loose connective tissue called endoneurium. Cranial Nerves Cranial nerves are direct extensions of the brain. Only Nerve I (olfactory) originates from the cerebrum, the remaining 11 pairs originate from the brain stem. Nerve I (Olfactory)- for the sense of smell (sensory). Nerve II (Optic)- for the sense of vision (sensory). Nerve III (Oculomotor)- for controlling muscles and accessory structures of the eyes ( primarily motor). Nerve IV (Trochlear)- for controlling muscles of the eyes (primarily motor). Nerve V (Trigeminal)- for controlling muscles of the eyes, upper and lower jaws and tear glands (mixed). Nerve VI (Abducens)- for controlling muscles that move the eye (primarily motor). Nerve VII (Facial) – for the sense of taste and controlling facial muscles, tear glands and salivary glands (mixed). Nerve VIII (Vestibulocochlear)- for the senses of hearing and equilibrium (sensory). Nerve IX (Glossopharyngeal)- for controlling muscles in the pharynx and to control salivary glands (mixed). Nerve X (Vagus)- for controlling muscles used in speech, swallowing, and the digestive tract, and controls cardiac and smooth muscles (mixed). Nerve XI (Accessory)- for controlling muscles of soft palate, pharynx and larynx (primarily motor). Nerve XII (Hypoglossal) for controlling muscles that move the tongue ( primarily motor).

  • What Is the Autonomic Nervous System?
    J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry: first published as 10.1136/jnnp.74.suppl_3.iii31 on 21 August 2003. Downloaded from AUTONOMIC DISEASES: CLINICAL FEATURES AND LABORATORY EVALUATION *iii31 Christopher J Mathias J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry 2003;74(Suppl III):iii31–iii41 he autonomic nervous system has a craniosacral parasympathetic and a thoracolumbar sym- pathetic pathway (fig 1) and supplies every organ in the body. It influences localised organ Tfunction and also integrated processes that control vital functions such as arterial blood pres- sure and body temperature. There are specific neurotransmitters in each system that influence ganglionic and post-ganglionic function (fig 2). The symptoms and signs of autonomic disease cover a wide spectrum (table 1) that vary depending upon the aetiology (tables 2 and 3). In some they are localised (table 4). Autonomic dis- ease can result in underactivity or overactivity. Sympathetic adrenergic failure causes orthostatic (postural) hypotension and in the male ejaculatory failure, while sympathetic cholinergic failure results in anhidrosis; parasympathetic failure causes dilated pupils, a fixed heart rate, a sluggish urinary bladder, an atonic large bowel and, in the male, erectile failure. With autonomic hyperac- tivity, the reverse occurs. In some disorders, particularly in neurally mediated syncope, there may be a combination of effects, with bradycardia caused by parasympathetic activity and hypotension resulting from withdrawal of sympathetic activity. The history is of particular importance in the consideration and recognition of autonomic disease, and in separating dysfunction that may result from non-autonomic disorders. CLINICAL FEATURES c copyright. General aspects Autonomic disease may present at any age group; at birth in familial dysautonomia (Riley-Day syndrome), in teenage years in vasovagal syncope, and between the ages of 30–50 years in familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP).

  • Brainstem Dysfunction in Critically Ill Patients
    Benghanem et al. Critical Care (2020) 24:5 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13054-019-2718-9 REVIEW Open Access Brainstem dysfunction in critically ill patients Sarah Benghanem1,2 , Aurélien Mazeraud3,4, Eric Azabou5, Vibol Chhor6, Cassia Righy Shinotsuka7,8, Jan Claassen9, Benjamin Rohaut1,9,10† and Tarek Sharshar3,4*† Abstract The brainstem conveys sensory and motor inputs between the spinal cord and the brain, and contains nuclei of the cranial nerves. It controls the sleep-wake cycle and vital functions via the ascending reticular activating system and the autonomic nuclei, respectively. Brainstem dysfunction may lead to sensory and motor deficits, cranial nerve palsies, impairment of consciousness, dysautonomia, and respiratory failure. The brainstem is prone to various primary and secondary insults, resulting in acute or chronic dysfunction. Of particular importance for characterizing brainstem dysfunction and identifying the underlying etiology are a detailed clinical examination, MRI, neurophysiologic tests such as brainstem auditory evoked potentials, and an analysis of the cerebrospinal fluid. Detection of brainstem dysfunction is challenging but of utmost importance in comatose and deeply sedated patients both to guide therapy and to support outcome prediction. In the present review, we summarize the neuroanatomy, clinical syndromes, and diagnostic techniques of critical illness-associated brainstem dysfunction for the critical care setting.

  • Is It Really Sciatica August, 2017
    Is It Really Sciatica August, 2017 By Dr. Derek Conte One of the most common complaints we see from patients is that of sciatic pain. They will say, “I have sciatica!” And when I ask, “How do you know it is sciatica?” they will say that’s what their friend said, or that they went online and did a medical search, or my favorite: that their “regular” doctor told them. So, what is sciatica, what are its symptoms, and what exactly is the sciatic nerve? I’ll tell you that sciatica is one for the most misdiagnosed conditions we see. The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in the body and is made up of five nerves which arise from the low back and sacrum. These nerves converge and travel beneath the buttocks and down the outside rear of the thigh to the back of the knee, where they divide. The tibial nerve goes straight down the back of the calf around the inside of the ankle and on to the underside of the foot. The two peroneal nerves cover the rest of the lower leg and top of the foot (see chart). Sciatica is the irritation of the sciatic nerve and can be caused in several ways. First, compression of the nerve must be present or there would be no pain. Beginning centrally and going out from the spinal cord the causes may be 1) Central canal stenosis which squeezes the entire cord and produces bilateral symptoms. 2) A subluxation (malposition of vertebrae) compresses nerves at the spine. 3) A bulging disc or osteophyte (bony spur) causing stenosis of intervertebral foramen, or a dramatic loss of disc height can also leave too little room for the nerves to exit the spine.
