What am I? • Another component of neutral function proposed to be affected by vertebral subluxation • This component is a non impulse mechanism based not on transmission of signals along the surface of the neuron but rather on the intra axonal transport and exchange of macromolecular materials • Chemicals transported by this process are collectively known as tropic (relating to growth) substances and have been found to be essential for the maintenance of proper tissue function • Tropic functions influences the development and maintenance of chemical changes in celled supplied by the nerve. These chemicals are carried to the full length of the axon to the terminals after which materials from the terminals are returned to the cell body for reprocessing. This is termed axoplasmic transport. • Axoplasmic transport: mechanism by which the nerve is provided nutrition thru the flow of proteins and other materials by way of sliding filaments (similar to myosin cross bridges). There are fast, slow and bulk mechanism that transmit proteins, glycoproteins, and neurotransmitters in both directions along the nerve fiber. • Transport materials is in both directions. The slower kind is called axoplasmic flow

What am I? • Increase in afferent stimuli causes a decreased threshold for firing • Continued stimulation result in hyperactive responses
Facilitation
What theory am I? • Aka: fixation theory; segmental facilitation's; segmental hypothesis; gamma motor gain; proprioception insult; sympatheticotonia • Segmental facilitation is defined as a lower threshold for firing in a spinal cord segment, as a result of afferent bombardment assisted with spinal lesions • Korr developed this first model to explain neurological effects of segmental dysfunction. His model describes segmental dysfunction resulting in a sustained hyperactivity if a segment caused by a muscle spindle activity. He focused in the muscle spindle as the coordination that may increase or decrease muscle contraction according to the direction of motion in the joint. The neurological implications of this model suggest that segmental dysfunction creates pathological somatic and visceral process • Explains that a vertebra is "stuck" in a normal or abnormal position but always with a NORMAL range of motion due to a muscle spasm producing hypomobility and nociception • Facilitation: continuous firing of nociception lowers the threshold for firing in this segment. This is called proprioceptive insult.

What am I? • Found between bodies from C2/3 to lumbosacral junction • Responsible for 1/4 of the entire heigh of the vertebral column • Greatest height in cervicals, least in thoracics • Responsible for weight bearing and dissipating shock • Consists of 3 components: 1. Annulus fibrosis 2. Nucleus pulposus 3. Cartilaginous endplate • Annulus fibrosus: limits the amount of torsion allowed on the disc and the amount of rotation of the vertebra. Allows the disc to adapt to stress. Outer portion has a blood supply innervated by the sinuvertebral nerves. During the aging process the water content gradually decreases causing more disc herniation. • Cartilaginous Endplates: composed of hyaline cartilage that separates but also helps attach the disc to the vertebral bodies; functions to anchor the disc, to form the growth zone for the immature vertebral body and to provide a permeable barrie between the disc and body. This role allows the avascular disc to receive nutrients and repair products • Nucleus pulposus: central portion of the disc and is the embryological derivation of the notochord. Accounts for 40% of the disc and is a semifluid gel that will deform easily but is considered incompressible. Responsible for the high water content of the disc. During the aging process the water content gradually decreases • Pressure changes in the disc: recumbent-> standing-> sitting-> sitting leaning forward-> jumping • Compressive load to the disc causes fracture of the end plate but not herniation • Thoracic herniation are rare due to disc thickness is greater there • Weakest part of the dis is the posterolateral aspect (narrowing of PLL)

Who am I? • He presents a pattern of spinal degeneration founded on the principle that spinal degeneration often begins with location mechanical derangement in the absence of structural alteration • Postulated that the process is often initiated with the development of individual motion segment dysfunction secondary to alternation in segmental tone and function • Joint hypermobility s speculated to initiate the degenerative cycle through the development of altered segmental biomechanics If derangement is of significant magnitude, osseous structural alteration occurs and degeneration of the joint is radiographically visible • 3 phase model of instability—> dysfunction, unstable, stabilization, breaking up spinal adhesions on an injured segment

Other associate neural phenomena) by irritating or compressing the spinal nerve roots •Emphasis is on the importance of the IVF and its anatomic contents (spinal nerve, nerve roots, BV etc) •Degenerative changes in bony structures in the IVF predisposes NR to compression. •Bone on a nerve (nerve pressure will cause the following effects: decreased sensation, pain in dermatome patterns, decreased DTRs, decreased conductivity and muscle atrophy2-5% of subluxations exhibit all of these characteristics , Unfortunately, some chiropractors have used the nerve compression hypothesis to explain all of the many and varied effects of subluxations •NR are more mechanically predisposed to irritation or compression than are peripheral nerves for the following reason: NR (endoneurium) do no have the strong connective tissue sheaths that support peripheral nerves (endoneurium and perineurium) thus NR fail before peripheral nerves when NR are tested under tension
