[The characteristics of the modulation of the afferent reactions during stimulation of the intraosseous receptors].

Acute tests in mature cats, demonstrated, evoked potentials in the cortex and medial center of the thalamus resulting from test irritation of sciatic nerves and conditioning irritations of intra-osseous receptors. The test proved that electro-irritation of intra-osseous receptors as well as higher intra-osseous pressure caused by the impregnation of physiological solution into the bone facilitated afferent reactions during threshold electrostimulation of sciatic nerves. The results of these experiments were compared to those of clinical monitoring of patients with radicular syndromes of osteochondrosis after intra-osseous blockades which led the authors to suggest a hypothesis about trigger mechanisms of neuralgias, based on segmental alleviation of nociceptive afferentation resulting from overstimulation of intra-osseous receptors.
