Where skeletal muscle is voluntary, cardiac muscle is autorhythmic (beats involuntarily; generates its own action potentials). 3. Smooth muscle: refers to the muscles that are controlled involuntarily by the brain, like those attached to the base of hair follicles or in the walls of the gastro-intestinal tract.The muscle has a single nucleus in the middle of the cell. Skeletal and cardiac muscle are types of straited muscle.here skeletal muscle is voluntary, cardiac muscle is autorhythmic (beats involuntarily; generates its own action potentials). 3.

When this results in irritation or damage to the adjacent nerves at the T4 level and the patient experiences diffuse arm pain, pins and needles or numbness in the upper arm the condition is known as T4 syndrome. Causes of T4 syndrome. T4 syndrome typically occurs due to injury to the facet joints or disc at T4 which then affects the nerve root at that level. Injury to these structures can occur during excessive bending, lifting, arching, or twisting movements or due to poor posture.
There are several ways to treat epilepsy. How well each treatment works varies from one person to another. Vagus nerve stimulation therapy is a form of treatment for people with epilepsy whose seizures are not controlled with medication. What are the vagus nerves? The vagus nerves are a pair of nerves that start in the brain and run through the body. They send and receive messages between the brain and the body. What is VNS therapy and how does it work? Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) therapy is a type of treatment for epilepsy that involves a stimulator (or 'pulse generator') which is connected, inside the body, to the left vagus nerve in the neck. The stimulator sends regular, mild electrical stimulations through this nerve to help calm down the irregular electrical brain activity that leads to seizures.
