PHSI3011 M2 (W3) Muscle/nerve stuff

Nerve conduction vs Axonal excitability studies: Nerve conduction studies use [blank_start]__________[blank_end] stimuli to assess fastest and largest conducting axons, whereas Axonal excitability studies use [blank_start]__________[blank_end] stimuli and threshold tracking techniques.

TetrodoToXin (TTX) is the toxin found in fugu. How does it work? (it does [below]; blocks saltatory conduction)

Ion gradients: Sodium is [blank_start]__________[blank_end]; Potassium is [blank_start]__________[blank_end].

Which of the following are pump toxins?

True or false: There is currently no pre-treatment way to identify which patients will be most at risk of chemo-induced neuropathy.

In a long-term (25 month) followup, 79% of patients treated with Oxilaplatin reported persistent neuropathic symptoms. Of these, those with the most severe neuropathy at followup had displayed the [blank_start]__________[blank_end] excitability change during treatment.
