Long-term results of microvascular decompression with video endoscopy in the treatment of patients with atypical trigeminal neuralgia [PDF]
Background: The incidence of atypical trigeminal neuralgia (aNTN) varies from 1 to 7 per 100,000 population per year. The main cause of its development is compression of the trigeminal nerve (TN) root by a vein and/or artery in the cerebellar cistern. To

The therapeutic effect of negative pressure in treating femoral head necrosis in rabbits. [PDF]
Because negative pressure can stimulate vascular proliferation, improve blood circulation and promote osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells, we investigated the therapeutic effect of negative pressure on femoral head necrosis (FHN) in a
