The relative analgesic value of a femoral nerve block versus adductor canal block following total knee arthroplasty: a randomized, controlled, double-blinded study [PDF]
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2020 Background Multiple comparative studies report that adductor canal blocks provide similar pain relief to femoral nerve blocks following total knee arthroplasty.

Tracking intracavernously injected adipose-derived stem cells to bone marrow. [PDF]
, 2011 The intracavernous (i.c.) injection of stem cells (SCs) has been shown to improve erectile function in various erectile dysfunction (ED) animal models. However, the tissue distribution of the injected cells remains unknown.

Local temperature-sensitive mechanisms are important mediators of limb tissue hyperemia in the heat-stressed human at rest and during small muscle mass exercise. [PDF]
, 2015 Limb tissue and systemic blood flow increases with heat stress, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we tested the hypothesis that heat stress-induced increases in limb tissue perfusion are primarily mediated by local temperature-

Brain and Behavior, 2020 Background A great extent of knowledge on peripheral nerve regeneration has been gathered using the rat sciatic nerve model. The femoral nerve model of the rat offers an interesting alternative, as it lacks disadvantageous features such as automutilation.

Modification of obturator to femoral nerve transfer for femoral nerve palsy
The Annals of The Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2020 Postoperative femoral nerve palsy with nerve division is a potentially devastating complication with a poor prognosis, especially when there is a delay in diagnosis. We present a novel ‘belt and braces’ approach for managing this unusual injury, using a modification of a nerve transfer, which has only been previously reported in the literature three ...

Ultrasound-Guided Lateral Femoral Cutaneous Nerve Cryoneurolysis for Analgesia in Patients With Burns. [PDF]
, 2020 Autologous skin grafting from the thigh is frequently required for treatment of burns and is associated with intense pain at the donor site. Local anesthetic-based (LA) nerve blocks of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (LFCN) have been demonstrated to ...

Mechanisms for the Age-related Increase in Fatigability of the Knee Extensors in Old and Very Old Adults [PDF]
, 2018 The mechanisms for the age-related increase in fatigability during high-velocity contractions in old and very old adults ({greater than or equal to}80 yrs) are unresolved. Moreover, whether the increased fatigability with advancing age and the underlying

Nerve Stimulator versus Ultrasound-Guided Femoral Nerve Block; a Randomized Clinical Trial
Archives of Academic Emergency Medicine, 2017 Introduction:Â Pain control is the most important issue in emergency department management of patients with femoral bone fractures. The present study aimed to compare the procedural features of ultrasonography and nerve stimulator guided femoral nerve ...
