โœฆ Synopsis

A conversational program is described which is being used for exploratory modelling of digestive tract electrical activity. The structure of the mathematical model is based on the Hodgkin-Huxley equations for nerve axons and the Noble equations for Purkinje fibres of the heart. The parameters of the models are changed conversationally to investigate the effects of frequency, amplitude and waveshape. In this way it is intended to extend the models to include nervous control. The program is also being used to correlate the behaviour of H-H type equations with the simpler dynamics of Van der Pol's equation which is the basis of an oscillator-array model for the stomach and small intestines.

Chloride-dependent action potentials were elicited from embryonic skeletal muscle fibers of the chick during the last week of in ovo development. The duration of the action potentials was extremely long (>8 sec). The action potentials were reversibly blocked by the stilbene derivative, SITS, a speci

On the basis of the conception that, in preganglionic lesions, peripheral sensory nerve fibers should remain intact, the question arises whether evaluation of distal sensory nerve action potentials can be helpful in differentiating between cervical dorsal root and peripheral nerve lesions. Amplitude
