Optimal Site of the Reference Electrode for Recording the Compound Muscle Action Potential of the Deltoid Muscle

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims For recording the compound muscle action potential (CMAP) of the deltoid muscle, the reference electrode over the acromion (Ac) has been used to avoid contamination of responses from other arm muscles to the distal tendon (DT). A recent article recommended the sternum (St) as the reference electrode.

Ultrasound does not shorten the duration of procedure but provides a faster sensory and motor block onset in comparison to nerve stimulator in infraclavicular brachial plexus block [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2013
BackgroundInfraclaviculr Brachial plexus (ICBP) block is useful for upper extremity surgery. The aim of this study was to compare the ultrasound (US) technique with the nerve stimulation (NS) technique in their success rates and times to perform ICBP ...

Ultrasound Guidance to Augment Needle Electromyography Precision in the Complex Nerve Injury Setting

open access: yesMuscle &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 ...

Comparative Responses of Self‐Regulated Exercise, Thermoregulation, and Neuromuscular Function to Monophasic Oral Contraceptives Across One Menstrual Cycle

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigated the effect of monophasic oral contraceptive (OC) use on self‐paced cycling performance, thermoregulation, and skeletal muscle strength and contractile properties in healthy women. Eight physically active women performed 30 min fixed intensity cycling at 50% Wmax, followed by a 30 min self‐paced time trial (TT) with each

Magnetic Resonance Neurography of the Brachial Plexus at 1.5 T: Diagnostic Reliability and Time Efficiency of Bilateral Ultra‐Fast 3D STIR vs. Unilateral 2D Dixon

open access: yesInternational Journal of Imaging Systems and Technology, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent technological advancements may now allow shorter reliable magnetic resonance neurography (MRN) scans of the brachial plexus (BP) even at 1.5 T. The objective of this study was to compare ultra‐fast bilateral coronal 3D T2w TSE STIR (3D‐IR) with unilateral sagittal 2D T2w TSE Dixon (2D‐DX) in terms of image quality, diagnostic ...

Free Anterolateral Thigh Flap Reconstruction After Excision of Extensive Vascular Malformations in Toddlers: Report of Two Cases

open access: yesMicrosurgery, Volume 46, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Vascular malformations often become symptomatic during childhood and require multidisciplinary intervention. However, reports of resection followed by free flap reconstruction in pediatric patients remain rare. We report two toddler cases of vascular malformations reconstructed with free anterolateral thigh (ALT) flaps. Case 1 was a 2‐year‐old
