Local BDNF Delivery to the Injured Cervical Spinal Cord using an Engineered Hydrogel Enhances Diaphragmatic Respiratory Function. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We developed an innovative biomaterial-based approach to repair the critical neural circuitry that controls diaphragm activation by locally delivering brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) to injured cervical spinal cord.

Differential glymphatic dysfunction and memory correlation in temporal lobe epilepsy subtypes

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study aims to evaluate the glymphatic system (GS) in different temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) subtypes using diffusion tensor imaging analysis along the perivascular space (DTI‐ALPS) and to explore its correlation with clinical factors and memory performance.

Mispositioned Neurokinin-1 Receptor-Expressing Neurons Underlie Heat Hyperalgesia in Disabled-1 Mutant Mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Reelin (Reln) and Disabled-1 (Dab1) participate in the Reln-signaling pathway and when either is deleted, mutant mice have the same spinally mediated behavioral abnormalities, increased sensitivity to noxious heat and a profound loss in mechanical ...

Exposure of a tendon extracellular matrix to synovial fluid triggers endogenous and engrafted cell death: A mechanism for failed healing of intrathecal tendon injuries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Aim: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of normal synovial fluid (SF) on exposed endogenous tendon-derived cells (TDC) and engrafted mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) within the tendon extracellular matrix. Methods: Explants from equine

Increased lumbar puncture success using a paramedian approach: A retrospective cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Lumbar puncture (LP) is frequently necessary in hospitalized patients for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Traditional landmark identification by palpation of the lumbar spine and pelvis can see significant failure rates. A paramedian approach is an accepted, though less frequently used technique associated with higher success ...

Phase I Trial of Repeated Intrathecal Autologous Bone Marrow‐Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

open access: yesStem Cells Translational Medicine, 2015
Stem cell therapy is an emerging alternative therapeutic or disease‐modifying strategy for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The aim of this open‐label phase I clinical trial was to evaluate the safety of two repeated intrathecal injections of ...

T2‐Weighted T1 Mapping and Automated Segmentation of CSF: Assessment of Solute Gradients in the Healthy Brain

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) serves as a medium for nutrient delivery and waste clearance. The T1 relaxation rate, R1, can be used to measure the concentration of intrinsic solutes and extrinsic contrast agents. Purpose To implement a method for R1 mapping and segmentation of CSF and to use this method to explore how R1 of CSF relates ...

Intrathecal dexmedetomidine as adjuvant for spinal anaesthesia for perianal ambulatory surgeries: A randomised double-blind controlled study

open access: yesIndian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2015
Background and Aim: The newer trend in regional anaesthesia for ambulatory anorectal surgeries advocate use of lower dose of local anaesthetic, providing segmental block with adjuvants such as opioids and α2 agonists to prolong analgesia.
