(the SCN6/7A gene is part of the Nax sub-family and has uncertain function) Sodium channels produce action potentials, so this raises the question as to why

membrane to form action potentials. As described, a generator potential is able to initiate an action potential. That action potential itself has a field effect

unknown. A muscle contracture, on the other hand, is the shortening of the muscle resulting in an inability of the muscle to relax, and usually has a myogenic

pop at the time of trauma has no relationship with ACL rupture. Giving way is thought to be due to internal derangement or muscle weakness. It isn't specific

muscular action. With external resistance the latissimus dorsi, teres major, and sternal portion of pectoralis major assist provide concentric action. External

(AAFD), formerly described as posterior tibial tendon dysfunction (PTTD) has complex pathology defined by the collapse of the medial longitudinal arch

The compound muscle action potential (CMAP) is the resulting potential. The CMAP is the sum of all the action potentials in the muscle fibres. A single

Quadriceps femoris has four muscles (rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus intermedius, and vastus medialis) Quadriceps Femoris Muscle Type Origin Combined

effect is enhanced by cholecystokinin antagonists. (cholecystokinin has anti-opioid action). Placebo analgesia can mimic the respiratory depression side effect

done by action of the popliteus muscle. The popliteus releases the tension in the collateral ligaments to allow smooth knee flexion under action of the
