Patient Safety in Burn Care: Application of Evidence-based Medicine to Improve Outcomes.

abstract：:Many large-diameter myelinated axons in spinal dorsal roots contain carbonic anhydrase activity, whereas few small-diameter ventral root axons stain for this enzyme. This differential localization of carbonic anhydrase in sensory and motor nerve fibers is indicative of the potential of carbonic anhydrase histochemistr...
