Dry-printed electrodes for transcutaneous electrical stimulation of innervated muscles: Towards wearable and closed-loop stimulation

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation
Background While transcutaneous electrical stimulation is an established clinical technique, applied in clinical settings, the need for precise electrode placement, limited long-term stability, and user inconvenience hinders widespread adoption in ...

“We Cannot Talk as a Family”: Complexities of Survivorship Communication Among Hispanic/Latino Young Adult Survivors of Childhood Cancer, Parents, and Clinicians

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Young adult childhood cancer survivors (YA‐CCS) have an increased risk of treatment‐related health complications throughout their lives. Lifelong survivorship care is recommended, yet many YA‐CCS experience disruptions in care during pediatric‐to‐adult transitions and do not receive recommended survivorship care.

Effects of a facial nerve lesion on responses in forehead microvessels to conjunctival irritation and paced breathing [PDF]

, 2012
To investigate parasympathetic influences on the forehead microvasculature, blood flow was monitored bilaterally in seven participants with a unilateral facial nerve lesion during conjunctival irritation with Schirmer's strips and while breathing at 0.15.

Side-to-end hypoglossal-facial anastomosis via transposition of the intratemporal facial nerve

, 2009
The technique of facial nerve repair with side-to-end hypoglossal-facial anastomosis is presented and evaluated in five patients, who were operated on because of facial nerve paralysis after acoustic neuroma surgery or had cranial base trauma.

Facial Nerve Palsy

, 2022
The 7th cranial nerve, commonly known as the facial nerve, is a compound nerve having motor, parasympathetic and sensory components. Its motor portion innervates muscles for facial movement and expression.

Identifying Patterns of Hospitalizations Among Childhood Cancer Survivors: A Population‐Based Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Childhood cancer survivors (CCSs) experience more hospitalizations than the general population. We aimed to identify distinct hospitalization patterns among Queensland CCSs and the associated characteristics. Methods Cases (aged ≤14 years) diagnosed between 1995 and 2019 while residents of Queensland were identified through the ...

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Electrical stimulation decreases neuralgic pain after trigeminal deafferentation [PDF]

, 2008
Trigeminal nerve activity mediates head pain after cranial injuries, and also contributes to idiopathic syndromes such as cluster headache and trigeminal neuralgia. Nevertheless, chronic facial pain sometimes develops after lesion of the trigeminal nerve.

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.
