| nervus alveolaris inferior | <anatomy, nerve> One of the terminal branches of the mandibular, it enters the mandibular canal to be distributed to the lower teeth, periosteum, and gingiva of the mandible; a branch, the mental nerve, passes through the mental foramen to supply the skin and mucosa of the lower lip and chin. Synonym: nervus alveolaris inferior, inferior dental nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |

| nervus auricularis magnus | <anatomy, nerve> Arises from the ventral primary rami of the second and third cervical, spinal nerves, supplies the skin of part of the auricle, adjacent portion of the scalp, and that overlying the angle of the jaw; it also innervates the parotid sheath, conveying from it the pain fibres stimulated by stretching of the sheath during parotitis (mumps). Synonym: nervus auricularis magnus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nervus auricularis posterior | <anatomy, nerve> The first extracranial branch of the facial nerve, it passes behind the ear, supplying the posterior auricular muscle and intrinsic muscles of the auricle and, through its occipital branch, innervating the occipital belly of the occipitofrontalis muscle. Synonym: nervus auricularis posterior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nervus auriculotemporalis | <anatomy, nerve> A branch of the mandibular, usually arising by two roots embracing the middle meningeal artery; it passes through the parotid gland conveying post-synaptic parasympathetic secretomotor fibres from the otic ganglion, and continuing to terminate in the skin of the temple and scalp; also sends branches to the external acoustic meatus, tympanic membrane, and auricle as well as a communicating branch to the facial nerve. Synonym: nervus auriculotemporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nervus axillaris | <anatomy, nerve> Arises from the posterior cord of the brachial plexus in the axilla, passes laterally and posteriorly through quadrangular space with the posterior circumflex artery, winding round the surgical neck of the humerus to supply the deltoid and teres minor muscles, terminating as the superior lateral brachial cutaneous nerve. Synonym: nervus axillaris, circumflex nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nervus buccalis | <anatomy, nerve> A sensory branch of the mandibular division of the trigeminal nerve; it passes downward emerging from beneath the ramus of the mandible to run forward on the buccinator muscle, piercing (but not supplying) it to supply the buccal mucous membrane and skin of the cheek near the angle of the mouth. Synonym: nervus buccalis, buccinator nerve, long buccal nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nervus canalis pterygoidei | The nerve constituting the parasympathetic and sympathetic root of the pterygopalatine ganglion; it is formed in the region of the foramen lacerum by the union of the greater superficial petrosal and the deep petrosal nerves, and runs through the pterygoid canal to the pterygopalatine fossa. Synonym: nervus canalis pterygoidei, radix facialis, facial root, vidian nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |

| nervus cardiacus cervicalis medius | <anatomy, nerve> One of the cardiopulmonary splanchnic nerves conveying postsynaptic sympathetic fibres running downward, from the middle cervical ganglion along the subclavian artery (on the left) or the brachiocephalic (on the right side) to join the cardiac plexus. Synonym: nervus cardiacus cervicalis medius. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nerve conduction velocity |
speed at which nerves transmit nervous influx. It is expressed as meter per second. The velocity of normal motor nerve conduction is about 40 to 45 m/s.

| nerve |
Cells in the human body that are the building blocks of the nervous system (the system that records and transmits information chemically and electrically within a person). Nerve cells, or neurons, are made up of a nerve cell body and various extensions from the cell body that receive and transmit impulses from and to other nerves and muscles.

| nervous system |
The nervous system is made up of nerves that are voluntary and involuntary is composed of the brain, the spinal cord, and the sensory nerves. The nervous system carries messages to the brain from the body, and motor nerves, which provide messages from the brain to the muscles and which help muscles function.

| nerve |
A bundle of nerve fibers (axons). The fibers are either afferent (leading toward the brain and serving in the perception of sensory stimuli of the skin, joints, muscles, and inner organs) or efferent (leading away from the brain and mediating contractions of muscles or organs).

| nervous system |
Includes all of the neural structures in the body: the central nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves; the peripheral nervous system consists of the nerve roots, nerve plexi, and nerves throughout the body.
