Ultrasound Guidance to Augment Needle Electromyography Precision in the Complex Nerve Injury Setting
Muscle &Nerve, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 133-148, February 2026.ABSTRACT The rise in popularity of nerve transfer surgery in individuals with peripheral nerve and spinal cord injuries has elevated the importance of the preoperative electrodiagnostic examination. Needle electromyography (EMG) provides peripheral nerve surgeons with precise information about donor and recipient muscle health, aiding in decisions ...

Repeatability of Susceptibility Source Separation Methods in Human Brain: A Single‐Site Study at 3 T
NMR in Biomedicine, Volume 39, Issue 2, February 2026.Repeatability of three susceptibility source separation algorithms (χ‐Separation, χ‐SepNet, and APART) was investigated using 3‐T scan–rescan data from 21 healthy subjects. The separation methods showed moderate to good repeatability in most brain regions; however, results were greatly influenced by the algorithm used, with better performance achieved ...

Microelectrode recordings from the human cervical vagus nerve during maximal breath‐holds
Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 2, Page 501-516, 1 February 2026.Abstract Voluntary breath‐holds can be sustained for a long time following training, but ultimately, regardless of duration, the asphyxic break‐point is reached and the apnoea terminated. The physiological changes occurring during the apnoea include a marked increase in sympathetically‐mediated vasoconstriction in non‐essential organs, such as skeletal
