Traumatic facial nerve injury: A case of facial nerve avulsion at the cerebellopontine angle

Radiology Case Reports, 2022
Post-traumatic facial nerve paralysis is a common disease, but intracranial facial nerve injury after blunt injury has rarely been reported. We report a case of facial nerve avulsion at the cerebellopontine angle.

Surgical Treatment of Facial Paralysis [PDF]

, 2009
The management of facial paralysis is one of the most complex areas of reconstructive surgery. Given the wide variety of functional and cosmetic deficits in the facial paralysis patient, the reconstructive surgeon requires a thorough understanding of the

Multifunctional Design of Triply Periodic Minimal Surface Structures for Temporary Pediatric Fixation Devices

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A metallic implant's higher stiffness compared to the surrounding bone leads to stress shielding problems, causing bone density reduction and bone growth interference in pediatric patients. 3D‐printed triply periodic minimal surface structures present a promising engineering solution.

Infant Contact-less Non-Nutritive Sucking Pattern Quantification via Facial Gesture Analysis [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Non-nutritive sucking (NNS) is defined as the sucking action that occurs when a finger, pacifier, or other object is placed in the baby's mouth, but there is no nutrient delivered. In addition to providing a sense of safety, NNS even can be regarded as an indicator of infant's central nervous system development. The rich data, such as sucking frequency,

Facial Palsy Treatment After Cranial Base Fracture : A Systematic Review [PDF]

, 2023
Facial nerve paralysis is a common event in cases of cranial base trauma. Especially facial nerve paralysis due to trauma or fracture of the temporal bone accounts for around 7-10% of cases.

Digital Methods for the Fatigue Assessment of Engineering Steels

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The use of engineering steels is often limited by their fatigue strength. In the sake of a faster product development, the fatigue behavior can be predicted by machine learning (ML). In this work, ML is applied on a heterogeneous database, covering a wide range of steel types.

Proximal Planar Cech Nerves. An Approach to Approximating the Shapes of Irregular, Finite, Bounded Planar Regions [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
This article introduces proximal Cech nerves and Cech complexes, restricted to finite, bounded regions $K$ of the Euclidean plane. A Cech nerve is a collection of intersecting balls. A Cech complex is a collection of nerves that cover $K$. Cech nerves are proximal, provided the nerves are close to each other, either spatially or descriptively.

Double Facial Nerve Trunk Emerged from the Stylomastoid Foramen and Petrotympanic Fissure: A Case Report [PDF]

, 2010
There are several studies concerning branches of the facial nerve, but we encountered less information about the trunk of the facial nerve in the literature.

Idiopathic Bilateral Simultaneous Facial Nerve Palsy (B-FNP) [PDF]

, 2020
Background: Bilateral facial nerve palsy (B-FNP) is a rare clinical manifestation with incidence of 1 per 5 million people. Furthermore, it approximately accounts for 0.3 – 2 % of facial palsy cases. This B-FNP case is intricate in the diagnosis, finding

Assessing the Ecological Value: Monetizing Process Innovations in Tailored Forming

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This article introduces a method for evaluating the sustainability of innovations, even with limited data. The method is illustrated through an analysis of the “Tailored Forming” technology, which explores the impact of sustainability on economic value added.
