Exploring Ultrasonographic Atypical Aspects in Drug‐Resistant Multifocal Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy

open access: yesBrain and Behavior
Introduction/aims Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and its variants are characterized by nerve enlargement (NE), particularly in the proximal segments of the median nerve (MN) and cervical roots, as assessed by ultrasound (US). NE

Mechanical properties of muscle and tendon at high strain rate in sprinters

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2020
The aim of the present study was to compare the mechanical properties of muscles and tendons at high strain rates between sprinters and untrained men. Fifteen sprinters and 18 untrained men participated in this study.

On the potential of using fractional-order systems to model the respiratory impedance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This contribution provides an analysis of the human respiratory system in frequency domain by means of estimating the respiratory impedance. Further on, analysis of several models for human respiratory impedance is done, leading to the conclusion that a ...

Motor Impairment–Related Alterations in Biceps and Triceps Brachii Fascicle Lengths in Chronic Hemiparetic Stroke

open access: yesNeurorehabilitation and Neural Repair, 2018
Poststroke deficits in upper extremity function occur during activities of daily living due to motor impairments of the paretic arm, including weakness and abnormal synergies, both of which result in altered use of the paretic arm.

Increased Blood Flow and Tendon Swelling Precedes Vascular Expansion and Tissue Matrix Changes In Early Human Tendinopathy: A Potential Window for Superior Treatment Response

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Human participants with early‐ or chronic‐stage tendinopathy and healthy controls are investigated using ultrasound Doppler, 3T and 7T MRI, and tendon biopsies. Tendon swelling and hyperperfusion are evident early, while vascular growth and extracellular matrix changes are most pronounced in chronic tendinopathy. Early intervention may provide superior

Novel mapping algorithm during catheter ablation for ventricular parasystole originating from left anterior fascicle

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, 2020
A 17‐year‐old woman presented with frequent palpitations and shortness of breath and was diagnosed with drug‐refractory ventricular parasystole. We predicted that the parasystole originated from the left anterior fascicle (LAF).

Convergent and Divergent Connectivity Patterns of the Arcuate Fasciculus in Macaques and Humans

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study employs viral‐based single‐neuron tracing and dMRI‐based whole‐brain tractography to investigate arcuate fasciculus (AF) trajectories in macaque monkeys, and compares with the human AF connectome using spectral embedding. Results demonstrate conserved AF topography spanning temporoparietal‐auditory‐frontal pathways across primates, with ...

Primary neurons that express the L2/HNK-1 carbohydrate during early development in the zebrafish [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
In zebrafish, many nerve pathways in both the CNS and periphery are pioneered by a small and relatively simple set of ‘primary’ neurons that arise in the early embryo.

Mendelian Randomization and Double Machine Learning Modeling Reveal Brain Imaging‐Derived Phenotypes as Functional Contributors to 18 Autoimmune Inflammatory Diseases

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This schematic integrates the eight statistically significant causal relationships identified between 1,366 brain imaging‐derived phenotypes (IDPs) and 18 autoimmune inflammatory diseases (AIDs). Arrows indicate the direction of causality inferred from bidirectional two‐sample MR analyses.

Three-dimensional architecture of the whole human soleus muscle in vivo [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
Background Most data on the architecture of the human soleus muscle have been obtained from cadaveric dissection or two-dimensional ultrasound imaging. We present the first comprehensive, quantitative study on the three-dimensional anatomy of the human ...
