Hi. I have got a question.
I am a French maths student and I am studying the modelisation of the
nervous membrane: Hodgkin-Huxley and Fitzhugh-Nagumo.
That talks about the trigger effect: if the tension of the membrane is high
(more than 100 mV), there are oscillations: temporal sum.... (I don't know
the English words...)
Are there medical applications of the trigger effect??? I think about
nervous crisis, epilepsy, spasmophily, tetany... all that are "linked" with
Ca++, K+ and Na+, the ions in the nervous membrane. Isn't there
applications... the nervous crisis aren't a consequence of little trigger
effects?
