A study of the specific membrane properties in different types of smooth muscle by Tomita, T

“…Participation of many muscle fibres appears to be necessary for spike production and propagation, the fundamental mechanism being electrotonic spread, as in the ephaptic junction between neurones of low animals. A single muscle fibre of the taenia has several such junctions, and the electrotonic spread from many surrounding cells must summate to generate first an active slow component, which then triggers the spike.…”

The Politics of Pain by Alix Masters

“…Marion Sims, states she endured over thirty experimental gynecological surgeries without anesthesia due to her “alleged superhuman threshold for pain.”[9]  Infamous slave doctor Samuel Cartwright of the University of Louisiana coined the medical term “rascality,” which described the alleged phenomenon of black enslaved people seeming “to be insensible to pain when subjected to punishment.”[10]  Furthermore, white American neurologist Silas Weir Mitchell, referred to foreign indigenous patients as “savages” who do “not feel pain as we do: nor as we examine the descending scale of life do animals seem to have the acuteness of pain-sense at which we have arrived.”[11]  This logic greatly contributed to the rationale behind the Tuskegee syphilis experiment of 1932-1972 during which black male syphilis patients were left untreated for their disease or their pain.[12]  This racist history of the western medical establishment’s false ideas about pain difference across races is essential to consider when we discuss contemporary ideas about access to pain relief, and specifically, palliative care. …”

The amounts and fates of smaller microplastic and nanoplastic particles (MNPs <10 µm) in aquatic environments are poorly understood, but the potential for harm is worrying given their mobility in biological systems. …”
