3D imaging of the vagus nerve fascicular anatomy with cryo-imaging and UV excitation. [PDF]

Proc SPIE Int Soc Opt Eng, 2021
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a method to treat drug-resistant epilepsy and depression, but therapeutic outcomes are often not ideal. Newer electrode designs such as intra-fascicular electrodes offer potential improvements in reducing off-target effects but require a detailed understanding of the fascicular anatomy of the vagus nerve.

Human vagus nerve fascicular anatomy: a microCT segmentation and histological study

, 2023
Abstract Background Previous research has revealed the logical mapping of fascicles in both human somatic and pig vagus nerves, but the organization of fascicles within the human vagus nerve remains largely unknown. Understanding its fascicular arrangement would significantly advance our knowledge of

Label-free full-thickness imaging of porcine vagus nerve fascicular anatomy by polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography. [PDF]

J Neural Eng
Abstract Objective. Improving the efficacy of vagus nerve (VN) stimulation therapy requires a detailed understanding of the anatomical and functional organization of nerve fiber bundles and their fascicles. Various ex-vivo imaging platforms have been optimized for this purpose.

Unravelling the Distinct Phenotype and Mechanosensitive Properties of Different Tendon Cell Populations. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
Tendon interfascicular and fascicular matrix cells are isolated and cultured, revealing distinct phenotypes and mechanosensitive responses. Interfascicular matrix cells exhibit marked stiffness‐dependent phenotypic plasticity, whereas fascicular matrix cells remain comparatively stable.

Behavioral correlates of fascicular organization: The confluence of muscle architectural anatomy and function

The Anatomical Record, 2023
AbstractMuscle is a complex tissue that has been studied on numerous hierarchical levels: from gross descriptions of muscle organization to cellular analyses of fiber profiles. In the middle of this space between organismal and cellular biology lies muscle architecture, the level at which functional correlations between a muscle's internal fiber ...

Concurrent Long Thoracic and Lateral Cutaneous Intercostal Nerve Entrapment After Chest Tube Thoracostomy Causing Scapular Winging and Chest Wall Pain: Diagnosis With Ultrasound and Treatment With Hydrodissection. [PDF]

Pain Pract
ABSTRACT Background Chest tube thoracostomy may cause iatrogenic nerve injury, resulting in persistent pain and functional impairment. Long thoracic nerve (LTN) palsy after chest tube placement has been described, but concurrent involvement of the LTN and the lateral cutaneous branch of an intercostal nerve (LCIN) appears to be rarely reported.

Anatomic All-Inside Repair of the Anteroinferior and Posterosuperior Popliteomeniscal Fascicles for Hypermobile Lateral Meniscus. [PDF]

Arthrosc Tech
Abstract Hypermobile lateral meniscus refers to abnormal mobility of an otherwise morphologically normal meniscus without obvious tears, causing lateral knee pain due to catching or locking of the lateral meniscus during flexion. The most common cause is rupture or elongation of the popliteomeniscal fascicles (PMFs), which connect the lateral meniscus ...

Imaging fascicular organization of rat sciatic nerves with fast neural electrical impedance tomography

Nature Communications, 2020
To be successful, selective neuromodulation requires a non-invasive method of imaging the fascicular anatomy of peripheral nerves. Here, the authors show the applicability and reliability of fast neural electrical impedance tomography for this purpose ...

Anatomic Analysis of Masseteric-to-zygomatic Nerve Transfer in Rat and Pig Models

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2023
Background:. Nerve transfer from the masseteric branch of the trigeminal nerve is a widely performed procedure for facial reanimation. Despite achieving powerful muscle force, clinical and aesthetic results leave room for improvement.
