Quantitative Ultrasound Analysis of Muscle Reinnervation Following Anterior Interosseous Nerve‐To‐Ulnar Motor Branch Supercharged End‐To‐Side Transfer Surgery: A Preliminary Study

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Routine assessment of muscle reinnervation primarily relies on clinical and electromyographic evaluation. The aim of this preliminary study was to evaluate sensitivity of quantitative ultrasound analysis for monitoring intrinsic hand muscle recovery following anterior interosseous nerve (AIN)‐to‐ulnar motor branch ...

Repurposing antimicrobial agents for neuroprotection: Mechanisms, clinical potential, and challenges

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial agents exert neuroprotective effects through modulation of interconnected pathways. Tetracyclines, macrolides, antimalarial agents, sulfones, and antiparasitic agents suppress neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis while preserving mitochondrial function and neurotransmission.

A Case of Poststreptococcal Acute Motor and Sensory Axonal Neuropathy

, 2018
The characteristic of the typical Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an ascending symmetrical and demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy. Acute motor and sensory axonal neuropathy (AMSAN) is a less common variant of GBS. Here, we describe an atypical AMSAN case developed after a beta-hemolytic streptococcal infection.

Rotenone Induces Morphological Damage and Reduction in Catecholamine Levels in the Central Nervous System of the Ascidian Styela plicata

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ascidians are invertebrates that occupy a key phylogenetic position as a sister group of the vertebrates. The organization of their central nervous system (CNS), with cortex and medulla, indicates a plesiomorphic character of the gray and white matter of vertebrates, making this group of animals useful for studies of neurodegenerative events ...

Cannabigerol reverses mechanical allodynia through α2A‐adrenergic modulation of thalamocortical signaling in chemotherapy‐induced neuropathy

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a prevalent and treatment‐resistant side effect of platinum‐based chemotherapy, characterised by mechanical allodynia. Cannabigerol (CBG), a non‐psychoactive cannabinoid, has shown antinociceptive potential, but its site and mechanism of action remain unclear.

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

A Rare Axonal Variant of Guillain-Barré Syndrome following Elective Spinal Surgery

Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2018
Acute motor and sensory axonal neuropathy (AMSAN) is a rare axonal variant of Guillain-Barré syndrome. AMSAN is considered the most severe form of GBS, known for its rapid onset of severe symptoms, and often leading to quadriparesis within 7 days of ...

Inborn errors of immunity in children with neuroinflammation

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Inborn errors of immunity (IEIs), an expanding group of monogenic disorders with diverse clinical manifestations, are increasingly recognized to include neuroinflammatory disease. Examples of diseases included under this umbrella are Aicardi–Goutières syndrome, deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2, familial haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis ...

Guillain-Barré Syndrome and Its Variants: A Case of Acute Motor-sensory Axonal Neuropathy in Jamaica

West Indian Medical Journal, 2014
This paper reports a case of a Jamaican young woman who experienced flaccid quadriparesis and bulbar weakness over a three-week period after a gastrointestinal illness. Nerve conduction studies confirmed an axonal type neuropathy consistent with the acute motor-sensory axonal neuropathy variant of the Guillain-Barré syndrome. Recovery, although evident,

Autoimmune mechanisms in Guillain-Barré syndrome subtypes: a systematic review

Bulletin of Faculty of Physical Therapy
Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a complex autoimmune disorder characterized by acute onset of motor weakness, often following an infectious illness. The pathophysiology of GBS involves a multifaceted interplay between immune mechanisms and environmental
