Annulus fissuring refers to the formation of cracks or tears in the annulus fibrosus, the tough outer layer of an intervertebral disc, often associated with degenerative disc disease and can lead to pain and reduced mobility. End plate spurring involves the development of bony projections, or spurs, at the vertebral end plates, which can occur due to osteoarthritis or disc degeneration. Both conditions are indicative of spinal degeneration and can contribute to Back pain and other symptoms related to spinal instability or nerve compression. Management typically includes physical therapy, pain relief, and, in severe cases, surgical intervention.

What is end plate degenerative spurring?

End plate degenerative spurring is used to describe a condition of the spine. Degenerative spurring is when there is wearing or deterioration of the bones.


What is endplate spurs?

End plate hypertrophic spurring occurs in the bones of the spine. End plate hypertonic spurring is the development of bone spurs around the bones that protect the spinal discs.


What is anterior end plate spurring at L1 and L2?

Anterior end plate spurring at L1 and L2 refers to the formation of bony projections or osteophytes at the front (anterior) part of the vertebral bodies at the first and second lumbar vertebrae. This condition is often associated with degenerative changes in the spine, such as osteoarthritis or disc degeneration, and can indicate wear and tear on the vertebrae. It may lead to potential nerve compression or discomfort, although many individuals remain asymptomatic. Diagnosis typically involves imaging studies like X-rays or MRIs.

Is end plate current the same as end plate potential?

No, end plate current of excitatory post-synaptic current(EPSC) represents the sum of the currents through thousands of AChRs in the postsynaptic membrane. The end-plate potential or Excitatory post-synaptic potential(EPSP) is the local depolarisation at the post-synaptic membrane which eventually results in an action potential at the postsynaptic membrane of the neuromuscular junction. EPSP is much slower than the EPSC because of the time necessary to charge and discharge the capacitance of the muscle membrane. Hope this helps, there is a lot more detail in the notes we were given which I'll be happy to share if you need it.


Which plate of capacitor is plus charged?

Whichever plate is connected to the positive end of a battery.

What is the growth plate also known as?

The epiphyseal plate is an area at the long end of the bone which contains growing bone. It is located between the epiphysis at the end of the bone and the diaphysis of another bone. This is only found in children and adolescents as it turns into the epiphyseal line in adults.


Is curare poisoning affected by the motor end plate or the axon terminal?

Curare poisoning affects the motor end plate. Curare blocks nicotinic acetylcholine receptors on muscle cells at the neuromuscular junction, preventing the binding of acetylcholine and leading to muscle paralysis.


What is discogenic end plate?

The discogenic end plate is the interface between the intervertebral disc and the adjacent vertebral bone. It plays a role in nutrient exchange between the disc and the vertebral body. Damage or degeneration of the discogenic end plate can contribute to disc-related symptoms and conditions.


What is a spinal end plate?

Vertebral end plates are the top and bottom portions of the vertebral bodies that interface with the vertebral discs. The vertebral end plate is composed of a layer of thickened cancellous (spongy) bone.
