The properties of nerve cell precursors in hydra [PDF]
Two signals, the head activator and an injury stimulus, control differentiation of nerve cells from uncommitted stem cells in hydra [Th. Holstein, H. C. Schaller, and C. N. David, (1986) Dev. Biol. 115, 9–17].

Shoulder posture and median nerve sliding [PDF]
Background: Patients with upper limb pain often have a slumped sitting position and poorshoulder posture. Pain could be due to poor posture causing mechanical changes (stretch; localpressure) that in turn affect the function of major limb nerves (e.g ...

Posterior division of ipsilateral C7 transfer to C5 for shoulder abduction limitation
BackgroundReparation of C5 by proximal selective ipsilateral C7 transfer has been reported for the treatment of neurogenic shoulder abduction limitation as an alternative to the reparation of the suprascapular nerve (SSN) and the axillary nerve (AXN) by ...

Radial to axillary nerve transfer [PDF]
Axillary nerve injury is common after brachial plexus injuries, particularly with shoulder luxation. Nerve grafting is the traditional procedure for postganglionic injuries. Nerve transfer is emerging as a viable option particularly in late referrals. At the proximal arm the radial and axillary nerves lie close by. Sacrificing one of the triceps muscle

Nerve cell differentiation in hydra requires two signals [PDF]
Endogenous signals controlling nerve cell commitment in hydra were investigated using an assay for committed nerve precursors. Extracts of hydra tissue were prepared and tested for their ability to induce nerve cell commitment.

Meta-Analysis of Nerve Graft Versus Nerve Transfer in Traumatic Brachial Plexus Palsy
Background: Nerve grafting and nerve transfer are the main reconstructive options, but their comparative superiority remains uncertain. This meta-analysis aims to evaluate and compare the clinical outcomes of nerve grafting versus nerve transfer in the ...

Global Efforts to Reduce Paediatric Cancer Care Disparities in Radiotherapy: A Decade Change
ABSTRACT Background We present an update on the status, needs and challenges faced by paediatric imaging and radiotherapy (RT) programmes globally after a previous survey conducted by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) 10 years prior. Methods We developed and distributed a 121‐question survey to radiation oncologists, medical physicists and ...

Background: Isolated radial nerve palsy is a debilitating injury that may potentially be reconstructed with either tendon transfers, nerve grafts, or nerve transfers. Currently, there is no consensus on the optimal technique for reconstruction.
