Question
Answer
Type 1 (A alpha) fibers; Morphology; Modality   show
🗑
show large myelinated; vibration, pressure, stretch, touch  
🗑
show large myelinated; touch, temperature, and FAST pain  
🗑
show small, myelinated; autonomic  
🗑
Type 4 (C) fibers; Morphology; Modality   show
🗑
What is an example of a large fiber disorder?   show
🗑
What is an example of a small fiber disorder?   show
🗑
show A beta and A delta. Fast adapting receptors have a brief strong response to stimulus and then rapidly desensitizes.  
🗑
Pascinian corpuscles; Fiber type; Structure; Function; Distribution   show
🗑
Meissner's corpuscles; Fiber type; Structure; Function; Distribution   show
🗑
Merkel cells; Fiber type; Structure; Function; Distribution   show
🗑
show Excitatory  
🗑
Are golgi tendon organ excitatory/inhibitory to agonist muscles?   show
🗑
Are muscle spindle proprioceptors excitatory/inhibitory to antagonist muscles?   show
🗑
Are golgi tendon organ excitatory/inhibitory to antagonist muscles?   show
🗑
show Carried by a-delta fibers, short duration, and well localized  
🗑
What are the characteristics of slow pain?   show
🗑
show Polymodal nociceptors  
🗑
show The decline in the generator potential (for action potentials) given the same stimulus  
🗑
Define nociceptive pain   show
🗑
Define neuropathic pain   show
🗑
Define allodynia   show
🗑
Define hyperalgesia   show
🗑
show Spontaneous sensation without stimulus (pins and needles)  
🗑
show Painful or unpleasant paresthesia  
🗑
show absence of sensation  
🗑
Define hypesthesia   show
🗑
Causalgia   show
🗑
show A delta mechanosensitive nociceptors, A delta mechanothermal nociceptors, and C FIBERS polymodal nociceptors  
🗑
Describe the VR-1 receptor   show
🗑
Describe the arousal response to pain   show
🗑
Describe the somatosensory response to pain (localing the pain)   show
🗑
show Signals travel from EITHER the spinothalamic tract or the reticulothalamic projections to the dorsal medial nucleus of the thalamus, which the projects to the prefontal cortex, association cortex, and limbic system.  
🗑
Describe the visceral pain pathway   show
🗑
show Laminae 2 (in the substantia gelatinosa and nucleus propius)  
🗑
Describe the structure and function of wide dynamic range neurons   show
🗑
What is the function of a beta fibers to WDR neurons?   show
🗑
How do descending inputs modulate pain?   show
🗑
Where do we find opioid receptors?   show
🗑
show C fibers normally carry pain to the WDR neurons. In the absence of C fiber input, WDR neurons will begin to send pain signals in response to non-painful stimuli (from A fiber inputs) --> allodynia  
🗑
show Loss of inhibitory input to WDR neurons = enhanced WDR neuron excitation  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
