Spasticity
Spasticity () is a feature of altered skeletal muscle performance with a combination of paralysis, increased tendon reflex activity, and hypertonia. It is also colloquially referred to as an unusual "tightness", stiffness, or "pull" of muscles. Clinically, spasticity results from the loss of inhibition of motor neurons, causing excessive velocity-dependent muscle contraction. This ultimately leads to hyperreflexia, an exaggerated deep tendon reflex. Spasticity is often treated with the drug baclofen, which acts as an agonist at GABA receptors, which are inhibitory. Spastic cerebral palsy is the most common form of cerebral palsy, which is a group of permanent movement problems that do not get worse over time. GABA's inhibitory actions contribute to baclofen's efficacy as an anti-spasticity agent. Cause Spasticity mostly occurs in disorders of the central nervous system (CNS) affecting the upper motor neurons in the form of a lesion, such as spastic diplegia, or upper motor neu ...

The Ashworth Archaeological Site is a significant archaeological site in the extreme southwestern corner of the U.S. state of Indiana. Located near the confluence of the Ohio and Wabash Rivers, it lies near several similar archaeological sites.

Ashworth Act
The Ashworth Act, was an act that was passed by the Texas Senate on December 12, 1840. It made the Ashworth Family as well as all free persons of color and emancipated slaves in the Republic of Texas exempt from a new law stipulating that all Black Texans either leave or risk being enslaved. Background The Ashworths The Ashworths may have been the descendents of Portuguese immigrants of North African genealogy. The Ashworths migrated from South Carolina, then moved through Louisiana, finally ending their journey in the early 1830s in southeast Texas, at the town of Beaumont, when Texas was part of Mexico. Prior to the 1836 ordinance passed by the General Council, the Ashworth family may have been viewed as white, at least socially, by Anglo-American settlers in Texas prior to 1836. They also owned slaves, raised cattle, and grew crops, and one of the brothers also became one of the largest stock raisers in the entire county. Texas before 1840 Immediately after winning independe ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
