Current concepts: Neonatal brachial plexus pals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Neonatal brachial plexus palsy may be decreasing in incidence; however, conflicting reports exist. Regardless, neonatal brachial plexus palsy has an incidence of 1 to 2 per 1000 live births making this a frequent occurrence. The majority of infants with

Identifying Failure Predictors in Thyroid Nodule Radiofrequency Ablation Using Multivariate Analysis: A Single‐Centre Experience

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has become an established minimally invasive treatment for benign thyroid nodules (BTN), offering excellent safety and efficacy. However, factors predicting treatment success and post‐procedural thyroid dysfunction remain incompletely understood.

Supplementary motor area deactivation impacts the recovery of hand function from severe peripheral nerve injury

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2016
Although some patients have successful peripheral nerve regeneration, a poor recovery of hand function often occurs after peripheral nerve injury. It is believed that the capability of brain plasticity is crucial for the recovery of hand function.

The Mid-Term Changes of Pulmonary Function Tests After Phrenic Nerve Transfer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: In the restoration of elbow flexion, the phrenic nerve has proven to be a good donor, but considering the role of the phrenic nerve in respiratory function, we cannot disregard the potential dangers of this method.

Collaborative practice to support community‐based physical activity for young people with childhood‐onset physical disability: A scoping review

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
This scoping review highlights that collaboration between healthcare and physical activity providers to support community physical activity participation for young people with childhood‐onset physical disability is limited. Collaboration strategies to support community physical activity lack sufficient detail for replication.

New Treatments for Spinal Nerve Root Avulsion Injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Further progress in the treatment of the longitudinal spinal cord injury has been made. In an inverted translational study, it has been demonstrated that return of sensory function can be achieved by bypassing the avulsed dorsal root ganglion neurons ...

Handwriting speed in left‐handed children with right‐sided neonatal brachial plexus palsy

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
This observational study investigated whether left‐handed children with right‐sided neonatal brachial plexus palsy (NBPP) exhibit reduced handwriting speed compared with typically developing left‐handed peers and explored determinants of any observed differences.

In vivo biomechanical responses of neonatal brachial plexus when subjected to stretch

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Neonatal brachial plexus palsy (NBPP) results from over-stretching of the neonatal brachial plexus during complicated birthing scenarios. The lack of information on the biomechanical response of the neonatal brachial plexus complex when subjected to ...

Passive shoulder mobility and active shoulder external rotation recovery in upper‐trunk brachial plexus birth injuries after nerve repair

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
This was a retrospective cohort study of 322 patients with upper trunk brachial plexus birth injury following nerve surgery of C5 and/or C6. We found that a substantial gap remained between passive and active shoulder external rotation in adduction, indicating that passive mobility is not the limiting factor in active external rotation recovery ...

Excitability changes in the sciatic nerve and triceps surae muscle after spinal cord injury in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background From the onset to the chronic phase of spinal cord injury (SCI), peripheral axons and muscles are subjected to abnormal states of activity. This starts with very intense spasms during the first instant of SCI, through a no activity flaccidity ...
