Ultrasound‐Guided Liposomal vs. Conventional Bupivacaine Erector Spinae Plane Block Plus Gabapentin for Postherpetic Neuralgia

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to compare efficacy and safety of ultrasound‐guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) using liposomal (LB) versus conventional bupivacaine (CB), each plus standardized gabapentin, in patients with postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). A total of 116 PHN patients were randomized to ESPB‐LB or ESPB‐CB; both groups received standardized ...

Ultrasound Imaging of the Paraspinal Muscles for Interscapular Pain After Back Massage

, 2020
Muscle injuries are very common in sports medicine, but involvement of the paraspinal muscles is relatively rare. The diagnosis is usually clinical, but diagnostic imaging modalities (ie, ultrasound and magnetic resonance) identify, in detail, the ...

A comparative imaging analysis of paraspinal muscles in healthy individuals and patients with chronic low back pain

Translational Research in Anatomy
Background: Chronic low back pain (CBP) is a heterogeneous disease that may be caused by intervertebral disc lesions, age-related degenerative lumbar vertebral bodies, nerve compressions at its exit points, age-related weakness of paraspinal muscles, or ...

Methods for Uncertainty Quantification in Dictionary Matching to Advance Reliability of Quantitative MRI

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Purpose: Dictionary matching is a standard tool in quantitative MRI (qMRI), but typically lacks uncertainty quantification (UQ). This is critical when advanced reconstructions (e.g., compressed sensing, deep learning) introduce complex‐valued, spatially varying, and temporally correlated noise that violates standard assumptions of ...

A Hybrid Rule‐Based and Large Language Model Artificial Intelligence System for Electrodiagnostic Reporting: Two‐Center Retrospective Evaluation

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Electrodiagnostic (EDX) studies comprise nerve conduction studies (NCS) and needle electromyography (EMG). However, EDX reporting is heterogeneous across laboratories and often requires time‐consuming documentation. We aimed to evaluate a hybrid rule‐based and constrained large language model (LLM) system that drafts EDX ...

Chronic Paraspinal Muscle Injury Model in Rat [PDF]

Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society, 2016
The objective of this study is to establish an animal model of chronic paraspinal muscle injury in rat.Fifty four Sprague-Dawley male rats were divided into experimental group (n=30), sham (n=15), and normal group (n=9). Incision was done from T7 to L2 and paraspinal muscles were detached from spine and tied at each level.
