Volumetric MRI is a promising outcome measure of muscle reinnervation

Scientific Reports, 2021
The development of outcome measures that can track the recovery of reinnervated muscle would benefit the clinical investigation of new therapies which hope to enhance peripheral nerve repair. The primary objective of this study was to assess the validity

Target Receptors of Regenerating Nerves: Neuroma Formation and Current Treatment Options

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Neuromas form as a result of disorganized sensory axonal regeneration following nerve injury. Painful neuromas lead to poor quality of life for patients and place a burden on healthcare systems.

Could an endoneurial endothelial crosstalk between Wnt/β-catenin and Sonic Hedgehog pathways underlie the early disruption of the infra-orbital blood-nerve barrier following chronic constriction injury? [PDF]

, 2017
BackgroundBlood–nerve barrier disruption is pivotal in the development of neuroinflammation, peripheral sensitization, and neuropathic pain after peripheral nerve injury.

Diabetes and the peripheral nerve [PDF]

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2009
Diabetes-induced damage to peripheral nerve culminates in development of peripheral diabetic neuropathy (PDN), one of the most devastating complications of diabetes mellitus and a leading cause of foot amputation. The pathogenesis of PDN occurs as a consequence of complex interactions among multiple hyperglycemia-initiated mechanisms, impaired insulin ...

Drive and measurement electrode patterns for electrode impedance tomography (EIT) imaging of neural activity in peripheral nerve [PDF]

Hope, J., Vanholsbeeck, F., & McDaid, A. (2018). Drive and measurement electrode patterns for electrode impedance tomography (EIT) imaging of neural activity in peripheral nerve. Biomedical Physics and Engineering Express, 4 (6), 2018
Objective: To establish the performance of several drive and measurement patterns in EIT imaging of neural activity in peripheral nerve, which involves large impedance change in the nerve's anisotropic length axis. Approach: Eight drive and measurement electrode patterns are compared using a finite element (FE) four cylindrical shell model of a ...

Interfacing peripheral nerve with macro-sieve electrodes following spinal cord injury [PDF]

, 2017
Macro-sieve electrodes were implanted in the sciatic nerve of five adult male Lewis rats following spinal cord injury to assess the ability of the macro-sieve electrode to interface regenerated peripheral nerve fibers post-spinal cord injury. Each spinal

Posterior division of ipsilateral C7 transfer to C5 for shoulder abduction limitation

Frontiers in Neurology, 2023
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 ...

Synovial sarcoma of the brachial plexus – a rare tumor in a rare area: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2018
Background Synovial cell sarcomas are usually seen in a juxta-articular location. However, they occur rarely in the head and neck region. Case presentation We report a rare case of brachial plexus synovial sarcoma in a 24-year old South Asian man treated
