  • Title: [Mathematical modeling of pathomorphologic changes in the spinal cord during prolonged cooling].
    Author: Avtandilov GG, Sukhanov SG, Veresova LA.
    Journal: Biull Eksp Biol Med; 1981 Oct; 91(10):505-7. PubMed ID: 7317618.
    Abstract:
    Experiments were made on 72 rabbits exposed to daily 10-12-hour cooling at a temperature of -3-5 degree C for 1, 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks. Use was made of a complex of morphometric methods to study neuro-capillary, neuroglial, relationships and nucleoprotein metabolism in the cervical, thoracic and lumbosacral parts of the spinal cord. The data obtained were processed on Nairi-K and Minsk-32 computers. All the changes in the parameters examined can be depicted mathematically by the equation Y = A0 + A1X + A2X2. Differences were revealed in the responses of different parts of the spinal cord to cold exposure to attribute the cervical segments to the increased risk area for the development of unfavourable pathomorphological alterations.
