Magnetospinography visualizes electrophysiological activity in the cervical spinal cord

Scientific Reports, 2017
Diagnosis of nervous system disease is greatly aided by functional assessments and imaging techniques that localize neural activity abnormalities. Electrophysiological methods are helpful but often insufficient to locate neural lesions precisely.

Donor‐To‐Recipient Mean Axonal Count Ratios of Upper Limb Nerves Used in Nerve Transfer Surgery: A Systematic Review of Histomorphometric Cadaveric Studies

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nerve transfer surgery may be performed to restore sensorimotor function following peripheral nerve trauma or dysfunction. There is biological plausibility and limited correlative evidence that donor‐to‐recipient axon count ratios may impact functional outcomes.

Quantification of spinal cord compression using T1 mapping in patients with cervical spinal canal stenosis – Preliminary experience

NeuroImage: Clinical, 2019
Background: Degenerative changes of the cervical spinal column are the most common cause of spinal cord lesions in the elderly. Conventional clinical, electrophysiological and radiological diagnostics of spinal cord compression are often inconsistent ...

Investigating the Cytoskeleton of DRGs Using Cryo‐Electron Microscopy and Deep Learning

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We describe a method for determining the ultrastructural organization of axons and varicosities of cultured dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons using cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo‐EM). Cryo‐EM reveals the dimensions, proximity, and overall organization of biological specimens in a near‐native state, avoiding artifacts of fixation and ...

HAM/TSP: association between white matter lesions on magnetic resonance imaging, clinical and cerebrospinal fluid findings

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2012
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between clinical data, white matter lesions and inflammatory cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) findings in HTLV-1 associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP). METHOD: We studied brain and cervical spinal

Unique case of glass piece injury to cervical spinal cord: A very rare presentation

Journal of Spinal Surgery, 2016
Foreign bodies inside the cervical spinal canal causing injury to spinal cord are seen very rarely. Very few cases of glass fragments in the cervical spinal canal were reported till date. In this report, a 17-year-old boy, who was accidentally injured by

Traumatic cervical spinal cord transection

BJR|case reports, 2019
MRI plays a crucial role in the assessment of spinal cord injury in cervical trauma. Transection of the cord is a rare post-traumatic cord injury, which appears on T 2W images as a high signal between the two disrupted ends of the cord.

Altered gene expression in the liver and small intestine of horses with equine neuroaxonal dystrophy

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Equine neuroaxonal dystrophy/degenerative myeloencephalopathy (eNAD/EDM) is the second most common diagnosis of spinal ataxia in horses in the United States. The disease develops due to a combination of vitamin E deficiency and an unknown genetic risk factor(s), and there currently is no effective treatment.
