Abstract Purpose: Transcutaneous Posterior Tibial Nerve Stimulation (TPTNS) using adhesive skin electrodes is not commonly used due to its low efficacy. Our objective was to verify whether the combination of TPTNS with low dose Trospium chloride in the treatment of females with overactive bladder (OAB) would be more effective than TPTNS alone after failure of behavioral therapy. Materials and Methods: We randomized 30 women with OAB‚ into two groups‚ 15 patients each: Group I received 30 minutes

is significant activity of the neurons to allow us to understand abnormality in the nerve that cause disorders. The objective of this study was to trigger a compound nerve action potentials (CAPs) and examine the effects of a stimulus voltage on a nerve and inspect their threshold‚ refractory period and also their velocity. Compound nerve action potentials (CAPs) are summed action potential of one nerve‚ one nerve consists of many neurons. We used the sciatic Lithobates pipiens nerve in this experiment

Correlation between the chemical activity of Amylase and change in temperature ABSTRACT This experiment focuses on how the change of temperature affects the rate of reaction of amylase. In the experiment there were four different environments that each contained 2 test tubes. Each test tube consisted of the same concentration and amount of starch and amylase. After having each test tube placed in these environments for several minutes a droplets of each mixture was placed onto each slot which

main factor that leads to the damage of optic nerve is elevated pressure in the eye. The optic nerve is the main visual nerve of the eye. It transmits the images we see back to the brain for interpretation. The shape and tone of the eye is maintained by a pressure within the eye‚ which ranges between 8 mm and 22 mm of mercury. When this pressure is too low‚ the eye becomes softer‚ while an elevated pressure causes the eye to become harder. The optic nerve is the most susceptible part of the eye to high
