Spinal cord stimulation for the restoration of bladder function after spinal cord injury

open access: yesHealthcare Technology Letters, 2020
Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in the inability to empty the bladder voluntarily, and neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) and detrusor sphincter dyssynergia (DSD) negatively impact both the health and quality of life of persons with SCI.

Coupling of bioelectrochemical toluene oxidation and trichloroethene reductive dechlorination for single-stage treatment of groundwater containing multiple contaminants

open access: yesEnvironmental Science and Ecotechnology, 2022
Bioremediation of groundwater contaminated by a mixture of aromatic hydrocarbons and chlorinated solvents is typically challenged because these contaminants are degraded via distinctive oxidative and reductive pathways, thus requiring different ...

A Bayesian Filtering Approach for Tracking Sympathetic Arousal and Cortisol-Related Energy From Marked Point Process and Continuous-Valued Observations

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2023
Multiple state variables governed by internal processes within the human body remain unobserved. On a number of occasions, these states are linked to point process bioelectric and biochemical observations coupled together with continuous-valued variables.

Self-powered assemblies for tissue engineering applications

open access: yesSupramolecular Materials, 2023
Bioelectric phenomena play important roles in living organisms and are essential for regulating cellular and tissue behavior. Electroactive assemblies can facilitate tissue repair and/or regulate neural activity by simulating the tissue microenvironment,

SOME ASPECTS OF BIOELECTRICAL PHENOMENA [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Physiology, 1927
It is pointed out that there are great advantages in using single cells instead of tissues in the study of bioelectrical phenomena. Certain bioelectrical phenomena are discussed in relation to the structure of protoplasm. Under certain circumstances measurements of potential differences may enable us to determine what ions

Hematopoietic Stem Cell and Fibroblast Proliferation Following Platelet Electrostimulation

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
The increasing use of activated platelet rich plasma (PRP), or platelet gel, for wound healing has highlighted the disadvantages of using bovine thrombin (BT), an animal derived platelet activator, including high cost and antibody stimulation.
