Analgesic Effects of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation at Different Stimulus Parameters for Neuropathic Pain: A Randomized Study

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives The aim of the present study was to investigate the analgesic effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation over the primary motor cortex (M1‐rTMS) using different stimulation parameters to explore the optimal stimulus condition for treating neuropathic pain.

Association between augmented enteral protein and muscle mass attenuation in critically ill patients: A sub‐study of a cluster randomized crossover trial

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Critically ill patients experience muscle wasting, impacting recovery. The associations between augmented enteral protein and muscle mass, strength, physical function, and quality of life are uncertain. Methods We performed a sub‐study in adult TARGET Protein participants from two sites between 23/11/2022‐23/05/2023. Our exposure of

Comparison of Paresthesia Mapping With Anatomic Placement in Burst Spinal Cord Stimulation: Long‐Term Results of the Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Double‐Blind, Crossover CRISP Study

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an effective therapy for chronic intractable pain. Conventional SCS involves electrode placement based on intraoperative paresthesia mapping; however, newer paradigms like burst may allow for anatomic placement of leads.

Efficacy of Ultrasound‐Guided Intercostal Nerve Block With Liposomal Bupivacaine for Treating Postherpetic Neuralgia in Adult Patients

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The study aimed to investigate the efficacy of ultrasound‐guided intercostal nerve block (ICNB) with liposomal bupivacaine (LB) comparing ropivacaine‐dexamethasone (RD) for treating postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) in adult patients. A total of 108 patients were randomized 1:1 to receive ICNB with LB or ICNB with RD.

A Randomized, Sham‐Controlled Trial of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Targeting M1 and S2 in Central Poststroke Pain: A Pilot Trial

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Central poststroke pain (CPSP), a neuropathic pain condition, is difficult to treat. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) targeted to the primary motor cortex (M1) can alleviate the condition, but not all patients respond. We aimed to assess a promising alternative rTMS target, the secondary somatosensory cortex (S2),

Is the EuroQol a Valid Measure of Health-Related Quality of Life After Stroke?

, 1997
Background and Purpose The EuroQol measures aspects of quality of life that are highly relevant to stroke patients. It is short and simple and many stroke patients can complete the form without help. However, its validity has not

Mechanical axis correction after total knee arthroplasty alters ankle alignment but does not affect ankle function

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) restores knee function, but correction of coronal plane deformities may alter the biomechanics of adjacent joints. This study aimed to determine whether changes in knee alignment after TKA have clinical or radiological effects on the ankle.
