p.483 The cell bodies of primary-order neurons or pain-transmitting neurons reside in the dorsal root ganglia just lateral to the spine along the sensory pathways that penetrate the posterior part of the cord. The second order neurons are found in the dorsal horn (p.484) Most nociceptive information tranvels by means of ascending columns in the lateral spinothalamic tract (also called the anterolateral funiculus). The principal target

(American Academy of Periodontology, 2014). Dental implants may be an option for people who have lost a tooth or teeth due to periodontal disease, an injury, or some other reason. Over a period of time, the jawbone associated with missing teeth atrophies or is resorbed. This often leaves a condition in which there is not enough bone suitable for placement of the dental implants. In these situations patients are

INTRODUCTION Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) refers to a complex series of rare but well-studied enzymatic errors of metabolism with deficient levels of different enzymes involved in the synthesis of cortisol (hydrocortisone). CAH comprises a group of disorders resulting from defective synthesis of adrenal corticosteroids. Lack of glucocorticoids, especially cortisol, causes various kinds of metabolic problems. The response to low levels of cortisol is increased production of corticotropin
