Suture tape augmentation in arthroscopic lateral ligament repair for chronic ankle instability yields similar clinical outcomes but faster return to sport compared to isolated repair

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Arthroscopic ligament repair is a standard treatment for chronic ankle instability (CAI). In patients with risk factors for failure, isolated repair (ILR) may be insufficient and augmentation techniques have been proposed. This study compared ILR with suture tape–augmented repair (LR + STA), hypothesizing comparable outcomes in higher ...

Electrophysiological Changes in Pediatric Spinal Muscular Atrophy: Results From an Observational Study

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Previous studies of children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) have focused on the ulnar and median nerves, while lower‐limb and proximal motor nerves remain insufficiently characterized. This study aimed to evaluate compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitudes in upper‐ and lower‐limb motor nerves in children with SMA

Common Peroneal Nerve Injury During Varicose Vein Operation [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 2006
Common peroneal nerve (CPN) injury produces considerable and serious disability. The nerve is most frequently damaged as a result of trauma (sharp or blunt, traction, fracture, laceration, and avulsion). Less often iatrogenic injury is the cause of damage (application of tight plaster, retraction injury, division during operation).

Sympatho‐Excitation in Pulmonary Hypertension: The Potential Role of Pulmonary Arterial Baroreceptors: An Acute Physiologic Intervention Study

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
Pulmonary arterial baroreceptors reflexively stimulate sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) in response to elevated pulmonary artery pressure and distension. In pulmonary hypertension patients, changes in muscle SNA were proportional to changes in pulmonary haemodynamics following nebulised iloprost.

Fresh human amniotic membrane effectively promotes the repair of injured common peroneal nerve

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2019
Suture and autologous nerve transplantation are the primary therapeutic measures for completely severed nerves. However, imbalances in the microenvironment and adhesion of surrounding tissues can affect the quality of nerve regeneration and repair ...

Automatic identification of gait events using an instrumented sock [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: textile-based transducers are an emerging technology in which piezo-resistive properties of materials are used to measure an applied strain. By incorporating these sensors into a sock, this technology offers the potential to detect critical

A Retrospective Study of Two Mandibulectomy Approaches for T3‐Stage Lower Gingival Carcinoma

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study retrospectively analyzes two mandibular resection techniques for T3‐stage lower gingival carcinoma, aiming to compare their impact on patient prognosis. Methods Retrospective cohort study. Data from 78 cases of T3‐stage lower gingival carcinoma involving the mandible were reviewed in our Department of Head and Neck Surgery.

Real-time imaging of the medullary circuitry involved in the generation of spontaneous muscle sympathetic nerve activity in awake human subjects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In order to understand the central neural processes involved in blood pressure regulation we recorded muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) via a tungsten microelectrode in the common peroneal nerve while performing functional Magnetic Resonance ...

Reciprocal Inhibition Post-stroke is Related to Reflex Excitability and Movement Ability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Objective Decreased reciprocal inhibition (RI) of motor neurons may contribute to spasticity after stroke. However, decreased RI is not a uniform observation among stroke survivors, suggesting that this spinal circuit may be influenced by other stroke ...

Electrical Stimulation of Denervated Muscle: A Narrative Review

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
This review explores existing strategies for stimulating denervated muscle following lower motor neuron injury, including direct electrical stimulation of the muscle and artificial reinnervation to enable more comfortable and efficient indirect functional muscle stimulation.
