Cuneiform Nucleus Stimulation Can Assist Gait Training to Promote Locomotor Recovery in Individuals With Incomplete Tetraplegia

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Impaired ability to induce stepping after incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI) can limit the efficacy of locomotor training, often leaving patients wheelchair‐bound. The cuneiform nucleus (CNF), a key mesencephalic locomotor control center, modulates the activity of spinal locomotor centers via the reticulospinal tract.

Aneurysm Wall Enhancement and Probability of Instability in Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms: A Long‐Term Follow‐Up Study

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Aneurysm wall enhancement (AWE) may predict aneurysm growth and rupture in the short‐term, but there is a lack of long‐term follow‐up studies. We aimed to determine whether unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) with AWE have a higher probability of aneurysm instability during long‐term follow‐up compared with those without AWE. Methods For

Shoulder Traction as a Possible Risk Factor for C5 Palsy in Anterior Cervical Surgery: A Cadaveric Study

open access: yesMedicina
Background and Objectives: Many risk factors for postoperative C5 palsy (PC5P) have been reported regarding a “cord shift” after a posterior approach. However, there are few reports about shoulder traction as a possible risk factor of anterior cervical ...

Primary extraosseous intracranial Ewing′s sarcoma: Case report and literature review

open access: yesIndian Journal of Medical and Paediatric Oncology, 2011
Ewing′s sarcoma / peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumors occur most often in bone and soft tissues of children and young adults. The intracranial manifestation of the disease is rare, and when present, this is often misdiagnosed with other varieties

Monro-Kellie 2.0: The dynamic vascular and venous pathophysiological components of intracranial pressure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
For 200 years, the ‘closed box’ analogy of intracranial pressure (ICP) has underpinned neurosurgery and neuro-critical care. Cushing conceptualised the Monro-Kellie doctrine stating that a change in blood, brain or CSF volume resulted in reciprocal ...

Osteological correlates of the respiratory and vascular systems in the neural canals of Mesozoic ornithurines Ichthyornis and Janavis

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract In birds, the neural canal houses a variety of anatomical structures including the spinal cord, meninges, spinal vasculature, and respiratory diverticula. Among these, paramedullary diverticula and the extradural dorsal spinal vein may leave behind osteological correlates in the form of pneumatic foramina and fossae, and a bilobed geometry of ...

New opportunities for bioscaffold‐enabled spinal cord injury repair

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of bioscaffolds for spinal cord injury repair. We summarize the effects of bioscaffold properties on SCI repair, highlight different types of bioscaffolds, various fabrication strategies, and in vivo transformations for the clinical development of SCI‐repairing bioscaffolds.
