Slit2/Robo Signaling Restores Diabetic Erectile Function via Neurovascular Remodeling

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Diabetes mellitus‐induced erectile dysfunction (DMED) is a common and debilitating vascular‐neurogenic complication of diabetes. The poor responsiveness of DMED patients to phosphodiesterase type‐5 inhibitors underscores the need for therapies capable of restoring both endothelial integrity and cavernous nerve function.

A Nordic perspective on female stress urinary incontinence care: Lessons for shared clinical practice

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
The Nordic countries currently maintain separate national guidelines and practices for managing female stress urinary incontinence treatment and follow‐up. Collaboration to establish shared guidelines and postoperative registries would benefit the evaluation of quality and give knowledge of cost‐effectiveness of treatments.

“MigraineMonitor” – Towards a System for the Prediction of Migraine Attacks using Electrostimulation

Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2018
Migraine attacks can be accompanied by many different symptoms, some of them appearing within 24 hours before the onset of the headache. In previous work, reduced habituation to an electrical pain stimulus at the head was observed in the pre-ictal phase ...

A New Method of Measuring Stimulation Threshold

Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2018
Louis Lapicque introduced the hyperbolic stimulation law with the key parameters “rheobase” and “chronaxie” that were obtained with rectangular current pulses. With rectangular pulses rheobase cannot be measured.

Werner Irnich: Pioneer in the Development of the Dual‐Chamber Pacemaker—An Obituary

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fifty years ago, Werner Irnich presented the concept of an optimal pacemaker capable of responding appropriately to various cardiac arrhythmias and perceptual disturbances, and intended to be used in 85% of patients. With this concept, Irnich was far ahead of his time. His proposed circuitry for AV block and atrial fibrillation, as well as his

In vitro muscle contraction: A technical review on electrical pulse stimulation in C2C12 cells

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Electrical pulse stimulation (EPS) of skeletal muscle cells is increasingly used to model exercise In vitro. The murine C2C12 myotube system has become a common platform for such studies, yet wide variability in EPS protocols hampers reproducibility and cross‐study comparisons.
