Probabilistic Lesion Mapping to Optimize Thalamotomy Targets for Focal Hand Dystonia

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Focal hand dystonia (FHD) severely impairs task‐specific motor control, yet the optimal surgical target for stereotactic intervention remains uncertain. This study aimed to identify the precise thalamic lesion site associated with symptomatic improvement and to clarify its network connectivity. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 164 patients

Electrical Impedance Myography Detects Disease Progression over 12 to 24 Months in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Targeted therapies for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) are progressing through clinical trials. Electrical impedance myography (EIM) provides a noninvasive biomarker of muscle composition that may be valuable especially in early phase trials. This study evaluated EIM data from a multicenter FSHD cohort over 24 months.

Multimaterial Triphasic Scaffold Replicates Enthesis Microenvironment to Modulate Early Cell Responses

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
A bioinspired triphasic scaffold integrating 3D printed polycaprolactone and electrospun poly(lactic‐co‐glycolic acid) is developed to replicate the organization of the tendon‐to‐bone enthesis. Cyclic mechanical stimulation induces spatially defined cell morphology and lineage‐related gene expression in human mesenchymal stem cells, highlighting the ...

Revisiting paravertebral muscles in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and European brown hares (Lepus europaeus) (Leporidae; Lagomorpha)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...

Effects of intermittent exposure to hypobaria and cold on the microarchitecture and morphofunctional profile of rat gastrocnemius muscle

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH) enhances oxygen transport, muscle metabolism, and cardiovascular health; however, the combined effects of hypobaria and cold are less well understood. Exposure to these stressful environmental factors, even intermittently, can affect skeletal muscle due to its plasticity, thereby altering its metabolic and ...

Editorial Commentary: Too Many Questions Remain to Consider Slope‐Correcting Osteotomy for Most Primary Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstructions

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions and meniscus repairs can have unacceptably high retear rates among certain cohorts of young athletes. Studies have showed that increased posterior tibial slopes are associated with increased risk of ACL and meniscus retears.
