The anal reflex elicited by cough and sniff: validation of a neglected clinical sign

Abstract: Background: It is unclear whether contraction of the external anal sphincter (EAS) following a voluntary cough is an integral component of the cough response itself, or a reflex response to the abdominal and pelvic floor dynamics induced by the cough. Clinical experience suggests a reflex origin for this response. Objective: To compare motor latencies for intercostal, abdominal, and EAS muscle contraction after transcranial magnetic stimulation with those following voluntary coughing and sniffing. Methods: A n… Show more

“…Experimentally, 1D systems can be realized in carbon nanotubes, 1-5 organic conductors, 6-10 transition metal oxides, 11 edge states in quantum Hall liquids, [12][13][14] semiconductor heterostructures, [15][16][17][18][19] confined atomic gases, [20][21][22] and atomic or semiconducting nanowires. Theoretically, Burke and coworkers 23,24 have shown that 1D systems can be used as a "theoretical laboratory" to study strong correlation in "real" three-dimensional (3D) chemical systems within density-functional theory.…”

“…In this regime, tunneling non-linearities can be described as a direct consequence of the modulation of the density of states for the electrons in the LL (∝ (E −E F ) q−1 ). This regime was explored in pioneering experiments in CEO structures where tunneling between a metallic region and an edge state was induced [7,8].…”

“…No localization occurs and the residual * Electronic address: roddaro@sns.it disorder only affects the electrons giving a mere phase shift. These issues stimulated much experimental effort that provided striking indications of non-Fermi physics at work for edge-states in the fractional QH regime [7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18]. Many discrepancies and inconsistencies with the χLL description however remain and the validation of the Luttinger liquid model is still not conclusive.…”

“…2(b). G decreases at high B due to the quantum Hall effect in the contact regions 23 . This is predicted to appear for B > 1.9 T. In the lower B field range, we observe an oscillatory behavior particularly for the two-channel transport with VG = -0.5 and -0.6 V. The sharp dip at B = 0 T is attributed to weak localization 24 .…”
