Estimation of sensitivity of island fasciocutaneous neurovascular medial plantar flap in the reconstruction of soft tissue defects in calcaneal region [PDF]
The soft tissue cover in the calcaneal region represents one of the great problems in the reconstructive surgery. The distant skin, muscle and musculocutaneous flaps are subjected to ulcers even with the orthopedic shoes.

Neuropathic pain in peroneal nerve entrapment at the fibular head
Background Peroneal neuropathy at the fibular head (PNFH) is a mononeuropathy that typically presents with drop foot and sensory abnormalities over the skin area innervated by the peroneal nerve.

Diagnostic value of F-response in the localization of the level of the lesion of peripheral motor neuron [PDF]
F-wave is a secondary muscle response, which occurs by antidromic activation of the limited number of alphamotoneurons. Based on M- and F-response and the nerve length, the conduction time, conduction velocity, and the ratio of F-response can be ...

Conducting polymer coated neural recording electrodes [PDF]
Neural recording electrodes suffer from poor signal to noise ratio, charge density, biostability and biocompatibility. This paper investigates the ability of conducting polymer coated electrodes to record acute neural response in a systematic manner, allowing in depth comparison of electrochemical and electrophysiological response.Polypyrrole (Ppy) and

Analytic modeling of conductively anisotropic neural tissue [PDF]
The abdominal ganglion of the Aplysia californica is an established in vitro model for studying neuroelectric behavior in the presence of an applied electrical current and recently used in studies of magnetic resonance electrical impedance tomography (MREIT) which allows for quantitative visualization of spatially distributed current and magnetic flux ...

Effects of Synaptic and Myelin Plasticity on Learning in a Network of Kuramoto Phase Oscillators [PDF]
Models of learning typically focus on synaptic plasticity. However, learning is the result of both synaptic and myelin plasticity. Specifically, synaptic changes often co-occur and interact with myelin changes, leading to complex dynamic interactions ...

Bromocriptine-associated ototoxicity [PDF]
Three patients treated with bromocriptine for chronic hepatic encephalopathy showed audiometric evidence of bilateral sensori-neural hearing-loss. Audiometrically, the hearing improved in all three patients when the bromocriptine dosage was reduced, thus

Oscillation, Conduction Delays, and Learning Cooperate to Establish Neural Competition in Recurrent Networks. [PDF]
Specific memory might be stored in a subnetwork consisting of a small population of neurons. To select neurons involved in memory formation, neural competition might be essential. In this paper, we show that excitable neurons are competitive and organize
