Periodic Autonomic Dysfunction Without Pain In A Patient With Cluster Headache, Avi Ashkenazi, Stephen Silberstein

Department of Neurology Faculty Papers

Cluster headache (CH) is characterized by episodes of severe unilateral headache accompanied by symptoms of cranial parasympathetic hyperactivity and sympathetic dysfunction that occur in cluster periods. Positron emission tomography (PET) studies have demonstrated evidence of a central generator of CH attacks located in the posterior-inferior hypothalamus. It has been suggested that the autonomic symptoms in CH result from reflex activation of the superior salivatory nucleus secondary to activation of the trigeminal nucleus caudalis (TNC). However, several cases of CH-like symptoms with no head pain have been documented.

We describe a patient who had suffered from typical episodic CH for two …

Dynamic Mechanical (Brush) Allodynia In Cluster Headache, Avi Ashkenazi, William B. Young

Department of Neurology Faculty Papers

Cutaneous allodynia is the perception of pain when a non-noxious stimulus is applied to normal skin. It has been described in patients with migraine. Cutaneous allodynia is caused by sensitization of central nervous system neurons that receive convergent sensory input from both skin and intracranial structures. This phenomenon has not been previously described in patients with cluster headache. Although migraine and cluster headache (CH) may share some clinical features, the pathogenesis of these two primary headaches is different. The aim of this study was to examine the occurrence of dynamic mechanical (brush) allodynia (BA) in patients with CH.

The Role Of Silence And Avoidance In Interpersonal Conflict, Alexia Georgakopoulos

Peace and Conflict Studies

Conflict is an inevitable process in relationships. Effective strategies must be used to manage conflict accordingly. If one is to understand how to incorporate effective strategies when dealing with conflict, the emotional experience related to conflict must be understood. The expression of anger is the emotion most associated with conflict; therefore, anger is an important emotion in the assessment of conflict. Anger is associated with arousal that may be traced to have its roots in the evolution of humankind. The emotion of anger is in part biological which links it to dispositional properties and to another extent largely communicative as …

Nietzsche On Truth And The Will, Steven Michels

Political Science & Global Affairs Faculty Publications

The fundamental — and many would say lingering — challenge to Nietzsche concerns how he can ground the will to power, given what he says about metaphysics as a philosophic prejudice. Does his teaching not topple of its own weight/lessness? It is the standard objection to which all postmodern philosophers must respond. This article examines what Nietzsche says about the limits of truth and the role that experience and perspective have in setting standards by which we might live correctly. The will to power, Nietzsche instructs, is a claim on truth, confirmed only to the extent that it serves life …

Sustained Growth In Nebraska, Saeed Ahmad, John Austin, Tom Doering, Ernie Goss, Bruce Johnson, Mike Lundeen, Donis Petersan, Franz Schwarz, Eric Thompson, Keith K. Turner

Economics Faculty Publications

National Macroeconomic conditions are favorable for future expansion of income, employment, and revenue in Nebraska. In particular, the U.S. economy is now in the heart of an expansion expected to persist over the three year forecast period. The principal engine of growth will be a sustained expansion in private sector investment and consumption demand. However, the rate of growth in the national economy likely will be moderate rather than rapid. At least three factors will act to moderate growth. The first is higher energy prices. Rapid growth in global demand is expected to keep prices for oil and natural gas …

Nebraska’S Community Airports: A Study Of Organizational, Financial, And Management Practices: Summary Report, Jerry Deichert, David J. Drozd, Robert F. Blair, Aleksandra Tepedelenova

Past Publications

Rural and non-metropolitan public-use and general aviation airports play a critical role in the economic development of communities in agricultural states and states with dispersed populations. Not only do they serve as a vital link to markets and resources for both agricultural and non-agricultural businesses operating in the community, small airports provide needed transportation options for area residents. These airports also perform an important function in providing needed health and medical transport services in non-metropolitan locations. Airports can be described as critical “public assets” with needed services to the local community (Penney 2003).

Disabilities

Picture this scenario: For Young at Heart, a monthly social and recreational event targeted specifically for senior citizens, students with moderate and severe disabilities worked with Key Club members to plan and cook a dinner for seniors, as well as plan the entertainment for the evening.

After a successful evening, the students wrote letters to local businesses to solicit funding for the next event. Students and their peer partners composed reflections and planned a celebration.

Phlebotomine Sandflies (Diptera: Psychodidae) Collected In Mukusu, Machakos District, Kenya And Their Nocturnal Flight Activity, Eiko Kan, Christopher O. Anjili, Rajindar K. Saini, Toshitaka Hidaka, John I. Githure

All Peer-Reviewed Publications

This is the first report on the nocturnal flight activity of the phlebotomine sandflies in the field by trap collection in Mukusu, Masinga, the kala-azar (visceral leishmaniasis in humans) area in Kenya. A total of 514 sandflies were collected with three different types of traps (sticky traps, CDC light traps and a goat-baited trap), and seven species of two genera (Sergentomyia and Phlebotomus) were identified. The number of Sergentomyia bedfordi Newstead individuals captured was the largest among these seven species. This suggests that S. bedfordi is the most common among the seven species in Mukusu. The result of the sticky …

High Variation In Impact In Point Source Pollution On Water Quality And Macroinvertebrate Communities In A Tropical Highland Stream, November 2004, Sarah A. Gruber

Monteverde Institute: Tropical Ecology and Conservation

This study measured the water quality around four different point sources of pollution along the Río Guacimal in Monteverde, Costa Rica. To get a complete view of the water quality both biotic and abiotic factors were measured: by collecting macroinvertebrates and testing for seven different biochemical properties. The macroinvertebrate community makeup of the Río Guacimal was dominated by flatworms and commonly included segmented worms, which are absent in pristine streams of the Monteverde area (Moore 2004). A Family biotic index (FBI) (Resh et al. 1996) was used to determine the health of the water according to the macroinvertebrate composition. The …
