Dr. Julian Bashir used 70 millivolts of neurogenic radiation to successfully revive Vedek Bareil's clinically dead cerebral cortex in 2371. Unfortunately, this caused vasoconstriction in Bareil's arteries causing inadequate blood flow to his internal organs eventually leading to his death. (“Life Support” [DS9]). SEE: vasokin.
~1:[3,#B],23:[1,#B],72:[1,#B],77:[2,#B]@1neuromuscular adaptation theory@2Medical treatise published in 2340 by Nathaniel Teros. Teros theorized that stimulation of the humanoid motor cortex would increase acetylcholine absorption, increasing muscle tensile strength in low-gravity species. This would make it possible for members of such species to function in gravity fields substantially greater than those for which their bodies had evolved. In 2370, Starfleet physician Julian Bashir tested this theory, dramatically increasing muscular strength in an Elaysian. The test subject, Ensign Melora Pazlar, declined to undergo a full treatment, because she feared she would be unable to return to her homeworld once the treatment became irreversible.

The Starship Voyager encountered an individual of this species in 2371, accidentally inflicting serious harm to the creature by entering its body to harvest omicron particles.

O'Brien escaped in the company of Benjamin Sisko (mirror), and the two began the difficult fight to regain human freedom in the mirror universe. Sisko insisted on calling him “Smiley.” (“Crossover” [DS9]). After Benjamin Sisko (mirror) was killed in 2371, the mirror O'Brien used a reconfigured transporter to abduct Commander Benjamin Sisko from the alternate (our) universe to carry out the mirror Sisko's last mission.

Everyone on planet Cardassia was watched and their actions recorded. Enabran Tain was once the head of the Obsidian Order, but was retired by 2370. (“The Wire” [DS9]). The Cardassian military and the Obsidian Order were under the political authority of the Detapa Council. In actual practice, each organization acted independently. The Order was explicitly forbidden from having warships or other any other military equipment. (“Defiant” [DS9]). Nevertheless, in 2371, the Obsidian Order combined forces with the Romulan Tal Shiar to assemble a massive fleet in the Orias system in preparation for a covert first-strike mission against the Founders of the Dominion. The operation was masterminded by former Obsidian Order head Enabran Tain, who emerged from retirement in order to lead the attack. The joint fleet was ambushed by 150 Jem'Hadar ships hiding in the Omarian Nebula, resulting in the annihilation of all attacking ships. The debacle effectively eliminated the Obsidian Order as a viable military force in the Alpha Quadrant. (“Improbable Cause” [DS9]). SEE: Garak, Elim; Lovok, Colonel. Also that year, operative Entek masterminded a plot to expose Legate Ghemor, a high ranking member of the Central Command, of being aligned with the Cardassian dissident movement.

Ocampa communicate telepathically as well as verbally. Legend has it that the ancient Ocampa possessed even more extraordinary telepathic and mental powers. Ocampa civilization was nearly destroyed a thousand years ago when their planet suffered a major ecological catastrophe, accidentally triggered by intergalactic explorers. The explorers accepted responsibility for this disaster and left two of their kind behind to care for the Ocampa people. One, who became known as the Caretaker, created a subterranean city for the Ocampa. For over 500 Ocampa generations, the Caretaker provided power for the city from his space borne Array, while protecting the Ocampa from intruders like the Kazon-Ogla. The Caretaker died in 2371, at which time the city had enough energy stored to provide for the Ocampa people until 2376. (“Caretaker” [VGR]). The Ocampa bury their dead beneath the soil and believe that their comra or spirit is released into the afterlife. (“Emanations” [VGR]).See: Kes; Ocampa planet.

Odo's specimen was labeled “unknown sample” which was translated into Cardassian as odo'ital. Even after it became clear that Odo was sentient, the Bajoran scientists kept calling him that. As a cruel joke, they split it into two words like a Bajoran name: Odo Ital. It was eventually shortened into Odo. (“Heart of Stone” [DS9]).

Unknown to Pa'Dar, Rugal was still alive, and the boy was ordered to the Tozhat Resettlement Center by Gul Dukat, Pa'Dar's political enemy. In 2370, Pa'Dar learned his son was alive in the care of a Bajoran family.

Deep Space 9 operations chief Miles O'Brien was dispatched to the Paradas system to be briefed on security arrangements for peace talks, but was instead taken captive. The Paradan government, which possessed a highly advanced cloning technology, created a replica of O'Brien and sent the replicant to Deep Space 9, with the intention of using him to disrupt the peace talks. This plan was uncovered by Paradan rebels and reported to Starfleet personnel. (“Whispers” [DS9]).

Starfleet officer on board the U.S.S. Voyager. Thomas Eugene Paris, the son of a Starfleet admiral, was a graduate of Starfleet Academy and was involved in a fatal accident that claimed the lives of three other Starfleet officers. Paris initially denied responsibility for the accident, but later admitted he had falsified reports to hide his culpability, and was forced to leave Starfleet. Paris became a mercenary for the Maquis, but was arrested by Federation authorities while on his first assignment for the resistance group. He was imprisoned at the Federation Penal Settlement in New Zealand on Earth, but was released in 2371 at the request of Voyager captain Kathryn Janeway. In exchange for his parole, Paris agreed to help the Voyager locate his former colleagues in the Maquis. While carrying out this mission, Paris and all Voyager personnel were swept into the Delta Quadrant, where they were forced to join forces with the Maquis crew in order to survive. Janeway subsequently reinstated Paris's Starfleet commission and assigned him to the ship's Conn. Paris experienced some discomfort at working under Commander Chakotay, a former Maquis officer. (“Caretaker” [VGR]). Paris chose the Starfleet base outside Marseilles, France for his physical training in his second semester of the academy. He spent most of his time that semester at Chez Sandrine, a bistro that he later re-created in the holodeck of the Starship Voyager. (“The Cloud” [VGR]). SEE: Ricky.
