Principles Quiz 1

_______________ describes the neurologic effects of subluxation via traction or compression.

___________________ best characterizes the terminology describing how the subluxation effects movement or motion.

Nerve root compression/irritation due to subluxation/facilitation > decreased nutrient flow > decreased reflexes/strength and trophic changes describes ____________.

Neural dysfunction is stressful to the viscera and other structures leading to too much or too little energy > lowered tissue resistance > immune response.

___________ refers to the following form of axoplasmic flow:Cell body to terminal, nerve growth/trophic mechanisms. It is the fastest of the two and the most common.

Which one is not an achievment of the adjustment or manipulation?

Which of the following refers to fusion of bones across a joint?

______________is the loss of energy in form of heat during cyclic loading and unloading of a viscoelastic substance.

_________________ are kinesthetic receptors surrounding facets that signal the nervous system about the position of the joints of the spinal column; play an important role in the facilitation hypothesis

____________ describes this concept: The trunk of a nerve sends branches to a particular muscle, the joint moved by the muscle and the skin overlying the insertion of the muscle; altered nerve activity to a muscle may be associated with altered nerve activity to the segmentally related spinal joints.

President of National College form 1940-1990; authored books on principles.

_____________father of homeopathy

____________ was the first to use short lever (using the spinous and transverse processes) technique.

Which subluxation complex theory involves segmental fixation and an increase in sympathetic tone?

In lateral plumb line analysis which of the following structures would the imaginary line drawn NOT fall:

Pupil Dilation is an action signaled by the _____________ branch of the Autonomic Nervous System.

Bowel and bladder evacuation is under control of the _____________ branch of the autonomic nervous system.

The myopathological effects of subluxation describe how muscle is affected, and suggests that an acute subluxation causes _____ while a chronic subluxation might lead to _______.

Subluxation causing damage to tissues on a cellular level is an exaple of the _________ effects of subluxation and includes increased protien permeability and edema

degenerative changes in nerve tissue are most likely, according to the neuropathophysiologic definition, when,

according to the segmental facilitation or fixation theory, the long term result might be

Along with decreased action potentials, ________ can cause long term negative consequences in terms of the nerve compression theory.

in addition to compressive forces, what else, according to the axoplasmic aberration theory, can cause alteration in axoplamic flow?

the neurodystrophy theory primarily concerns itself with the possibility of __________

Stimulation of ____________ is a primary goal of spinal manipulation.
