Liquid Metal as Connecting or Functional Recovery Channel for the Transected Sciatic Nerve [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
In this article, the liquid metal GaInSn alloy (67% Ga, 20.5% In, and 12.5% Sn by volume) is proposed for the first time to repair the peripheral neurotmesis as connecting or functional recovery channel. Such material owns a group of unique merits in many aspects, such as favorable fluidity, super compliance, high electrical conductivity, which are ...

Can the optic nerve be repaired? [PDF]

open access: yesThe Lancet Neurology, 2017
40 years ago, Bill Blakemore showed that transplanted Schwann cells repaired spinal cord myelin following experimental demyelination.1 The research, presciently funded by the UK Multiple Sclerosis Society, opened the field of cell therapy for multiple sclerosis.

Repetitive strikes loading organ culture model to investigate the biological and biomechanical responses of the intervertebral disc

open access: yesJOR Spine
Background Disc degeneration is associated with repetitive violent injuries. This study aims to explore the impact of repetitive strikes loading on the biology and biomechanics of intervertebral discs (IVDs) using an organ culture model.

Generalized nerves of monads [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
One interpretation of the Kleisli construction (given by Miranda and related to work of Par\'e) is as a nerve sending a monad $P$ to the Kleisli double category of $P$. In this paper we find more general nerve constructions on the 2-categories of monads, which also give fully faithful nerve 2-functors $\mathbf{Mnd}\left(\mathcal{K}\right)\to\mathbf{Dbl}

Stereotactic radiotherapy for metastatic brain tumors: A comparative analysis of dose distributions among VMAT, Helical TomoTherapy, CyberKnife, Gamma Knife, and ZAP‐X

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluates various radiotherapy techniques for treating metastatic brain tumor (BT), focusing on non‐coplanar volumetric modulated arc radiotherapy (NC‐VMAT), coplanar VMAT (C‐VMAT), Helical TomoTherapy (HT), CyberKnife (CK), Gamma Knife (GK), and ZAP‐X.

Semi‐automated hippocampal avoidance whole‐brain radiotherapy planning

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Hippocampal avoidance whole‐brain radiotherapy (HA‐WBRT) is designed to spare cognitive function by reducing radiation dose to the hippocampus during the treatment of brain metastases. Current manual planning methods can be time‐consuming and may vary in quality, necessitating the development of automated approaches to streamline ...

Nerve Repair With Fibrin Nerve Conduit and Modified Suture Placement

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, 2018
Sutureless nerve repair has been regarded as a promising technique for nerve repair as the suture materials often results in neuroma formation and scar tissue that impede nerve regeneration.

Regeneration and repair of peripheral nerves

open access: yesInjury, 2005
Posttraumatic nerve repair continues to be a major challenge in restorative medicine and microsurgery. Although progress has been made in surgical techniques over the last 30 years, functional recovery after a severe lesion of a major nerve trunk is often incomplete and often unsatisfactory.
