Corneal nerves in health and disease

open access: yesProgress in Retinal and Eye Research, 2019
The cornea is the most sensitive structure in the human body. Corneal nerves adapt to maintain transparency and contribute to corneal health by mediating tear secretion and protective reflexes and provide trophic support to epithelial and stromal cells ...

The nerve of these nerves!

Pain Forum, 1997
O ur Focus article dealt with a possible locus of spontaneous and movement-induced pain following nerve injury, not the enhanced and spontaneous cutaneous pain remote from an injury site. Most of the evidence Sorkin et al. present is from behavioral studies that measure distal symptoms such as these.

Nerve Repair and Nerve Grafting

Hand Clinics, 2016
Direct repair and nerve autografting are primary options in the treatment of upper extremity peripheral nerve injuries. Deciding between these surgical options depends on the mechanism of injury, time since injury, and length of repair defect. Principles of direct repair and nerve autografting are reviewed.

Quantification of Nerve Tension After Nerve Repair: Correlations with Nerve Defects and Nerve Regeneration

Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery, 2001
This study tested the validity of a quantitative in vitro nerve-tension-measuring technique, by correlating the tension measurements with functional and morphologic assessments of nerve regeneration. Initially, harvested nerves were used in vitro to determine a K value for lateral displacement in this tissue.

Cranial Nerve Coactivation and Implication for Nerve Transfers to the Facial Nerve

Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 2018
Summary: In reanimation surgery, effortless smile can be achieved by a nonfacial donor nerve. The underlying mechanisms for this smile development, and which is the best nonfacial neurotizer, need further clarification. The aim of the present study was therefore to further explore the natural coactivation between facial mimic ...

Optic Nerve: Atypical Nerves and Nerve Findings

2009
It is now well recognized that structural changes in the head of the optic nerve often precede functional changes detected by perimetry. The evaluation of the optic disc has therefore become increasingly important in the diagnosis and management of glaucoma, with an emphasis on early detection of the disease.

Cranial Nerve XII: The Hypoglossal Nerve

Seminars in Neurology, 2009
The hypoglossal nerve provides motor innervation to the tongue, and may be affected by pathology at multiple locations along its pathway. Knowledge of its anatomy and careful examination of the tongue are important in the diagnosis of lesions and determination of appropriate testing. The hypoglossal nerve anatomy and physiology, clinical disorders, and
