Ocular manifestations in Gorlin-Goltz syndrome [PDF]

, 2019
Background: Gorlin-Goltz syndrome, also known as nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome, is a rare genetic disorder that is transmitted in an autosomal dominant manner with complete penetrance and variable expressivity.

Polarimetric nerve fiber analysis in patients with peripapillary myelinated retinal nerve fibers [PDF]

Acta Ophthalmologica Scandinavica, 2001
ABSTRACT. Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the RNFL thickness in eyes with myelinated retinal nerve fibers (MRNF) and age, sex‐matched controls using scanning laser polarimetry.Methods: Seventeen patients with MRNF underwent a comprehensive ophthalmological examination including automated visual field testing, and scanning laser ...

Modulation of Calcitonin, Parathyroid Hormone, and Thyroid Hormone Secretion by Electrical Stimulation of Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Nerves in Anesthetized Rats

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
The thyroid and parathyroid glands are dually innervated by sympathetic (cervical sympathetic trunk [CST]) and parasympathetic (superior laryngeal nerve [SLN]) nerve fibers.

Multi-electrode nerve cuff recording - model analysis of the effects of finite cuff length [PDF]

, 2005
The effect of finite cuff length on the signals recorded by electrodes at different positions along the nerve was analysed in a model study. Relations were derived using a one-dimensional model.

Anodal Block Of Myelinated Nerve Fibers: A Modeling Study [PDF]

[1990] Proceedings of the Twelfth Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2005
Electrical stimulation of myelinated nerve fibers was analyzed, using point sources in a simple (homogeneous) volume conductor model and a dynamic model of mammalian nerve fiber properties. The stimulus conditions resulting in anodal block of a propagating action potential were calculated as a function of electrode position.

Immune or genetic-mediated disruption of CASPR2 causes pain hypersensitivity due to enhanced primary afferent excitability [PDF]

, 2018
Human autoantibodies to contactin-associated protein-like 2 (CASPR2) are often associated with neuropathic pain, and CASPR2 mutations have been linked to autism spectrum disorders, in which sensory dysfunction is increasingly recognized.

Selective Fiber Degeneration in the Peripheral Nerve of a Patient With Severe Complex Regional Pain Syndrome

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2018
Aims: Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is characterized by chronic debilitating pain disproportional to the inciting event and accompanied by motor, sensory, and autonomic disturbances. The pathophysiology of CRPS remains elusive.

Contribution of Skin Biopsy in Peripheral Neuropathies

Brain Sciences, 2020
In the last three decades the study of cutaneous innervation through 3 mm-punch-biopsy has provided an important contribution to the knowledge of small fiber somatic and autonomic neuropathies but also of large fiber neuropathies.

Electrode geometry and preferential stimulation of spinal nerve fibers having different orientations: a modeling study [PDF]

, 1992
In a computer modeling study of epidural spinal cord stimulation using a longitudinal array of electrode contacts, the effect of contact geometry and contact combination on the threshold voltages for stimulation of dorsal column (DC) fibers and dorsal ...
