Whereas V1 and V2 are purely sensory, V3 carries both motor (to the muscles of mastication) and sensory fibres. V3 supplies the submandibular and otic ganglia which are attached to the lingual nerve and nerve to medial pterygoid, respectively. Nervus spinosus (the meningeal branch of V3) acco...
What are the conical sections of the renal medulla called? What are the major sutures and cranial bones that can be seen from a superior view of the skull? Which of the muscles on the dorsal surface are shaped like a trapezoid? What are the five muscles of the pectoral girdle? ...
The bones of the skeletal system act as attachment points for the skeletal muscles of the body. Almost every skeletal muscle works by pulling two or more bones either closer together or further apart. Joints act as pivot points for the movement of the bones. The regions of each bone where ...
1. Tremor force was recorded during stationary isometric contractions of intrinsic hand muscles of normal subjects. Subjects maintained a steady force level between their thumb and forefinger for 30 s. The force level varied from weak (0... JH Allum,V Dietz,HJ Freund - 《Journal of Neurophysi...
The bilateral paraspinal muscles were dissociated from the subperiosteum and exposed to the lateral margin of the articular process. Pedicle screws were inserted into the superior outer edge of the apex of the “∧” shaped crest. After the pedicle screws were placed in a satisfactory position, ...
In recent years, the regulation of brain networks and interactions between different brain regions have become important issues in neuroscience. Effective connectivity can be employed to understand the modulatory mechanisms of brain networks. Previous st

Dorsal–Ventral Patterning of the Limb The DV polarity of the limb is particularly evident when epidermal-associated structures such as hair or feathers are considered. In the case of the human hand, the back of the hand is dorsal and the palm is ventral; muscles and tendons are found in ...
