Hypersensitivity (Allergy) 02/01/1992 - "The findings may relate to parasympathetic denervation hypersensitivity of lymphocytes or to lymphocyte activation which is known to be associated with increased MR number." 10/01/1987 - "Parasympathetic denervation hypersensitivity of the iris in ocular hypertension." 06/01/1993 - "Although heart rate variability is a very important prognostic factor in patients with myocardial infarction, the mechanism for the reduction in the vagal cardiac activity is unknown: myocardial infarction can cause local areas of sympathetic or parasympathetic denervation that leads to catecholamine hypersensitivity; the destruction of local ventricular receptors of the autonomic system may alter feedback to the higher centres, impairing autonomic regulation; the mechanical distortion consequent to the infarction can give rise to sympathetic overactivity" 01/01/2007 - "Dilute pilocarpine (0.1%) instillation in both eyes revealed parasympathetic denervation hypersensitivity" 10/01/1987 - "Seventy-eight ocular hypertensive patients and 47 age-and sex-matched control subjects were assessed for parasympathetic denervation hypersensitivity of the iris using topical application of 2.5% methacholine chloride solution" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
4.	Ganglion Cysts (Ganglion) 03/01/2005 - "Removal of the ciliary ganglion (partial parasympathectomy) caused the destruction of about 60% of the cholinergic nerve fibres of the same regions of the rat eye, while subtotal parasympathectomy destroyed about 80% of the cholinergic nerve fibres" 10/01/1993 - "By 7 days after the preganglionic parasympathectomy, the ganglion cells resumed normal features, suggesting the acute and reversible nature of the transneuronal degeneration of the monkey submandibular ganglion cells" 01/01/1990 - "These findings are similar to those seen after surgical removal of the ciliary ganglion and posterior ciliary nerves, and indicate that PRP produces an intraocular parasympathetic denervation of the ciliary muscle" 05/01/1977 - "Parasympathetic denervation of the eyeball was obtained by excision of the ciliary ganglion" 02/01/1996 - "METHODS: Neuropeptide- and NOS-containing nerve fibers in the rat ophthalmic artery were identified using immunocytochemistry following unilateral parasympathectomy (electrocoagulation of the sphenopalatine ganglion) and sympathectomy (superior cervical ganglionectomy)" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
