Evaluating the efficacy of obturator cryoneurolysis for hip adductor spasticity: An observational, prospective study

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Hip adductor spasticity is a common affliction among patients with disorders of the central nervous system. Cryoneurolysis is a novel intervention for spasticity involving the application of extreme cold to a nerve. This induces axonal breakdown, relieving spasticity.

The predictive nature of diagnostic nerve blocks for lower extremity spasticity management with botulinum toxin and neurotomy: A systematic review

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction/Objective Diagnostic nerve blocks (DNBs) involve the injection of anesthetic around peripheral nerves to temporarily reduce motor tone. Although they are used clinically to inform spasticity treatment with neurotomy and chemodenervation, there is little research exploring the predictive nature of DNBs.

Prediction of Prion Proteins in E. coli Based on Bimodal Sequence Characteristics

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prions are infectious proteins that bear misfolded conformations capable of converting folded states into misfolded aggregates under physiologically relevant conditions. In mammals, prions cause deadly maladies including Creutzfeldt‐Jakob and chronic wasting disease. To date, several prion proteins have been identified in eukaryotes, primarily
