Designing an ideal 3D-bioprint conduit for axonal repair and regeneration: a neurosurgical perspective [PDF]
Peripheral nerve injuries occur through three mechanisms, specifically, crush, compression or transection. Disruption of communication between the peripheral and central nervous system follows and leads to motor and sensory deficits. Peripheral nerves in

Improvement of Sciatic Nerve Regeneration Using Laminin-Binding Human NGF-β [PDF]
Sciatic nerve injuries often cause partial or total loss of motor, sensory and autonomic functions due to the axon discontinuity, degeneration, and eventual death which finally result in substantial functional loss and decreased quality of life.

Research Progress in Peripheral Nerve Regeneration and Repair [PDF]
Peripheral nerve injuries frequently result in sensory and motor dysfunction, significantly impacting patients' quality of life. Consequently, promoting regeneration and functional recovery following such injuries has become a primary focus of clinical ...

A subgroup of COVID-19 patients requires intensive respiratory care. The prolonged immobilization and aggressive treatments predispose these patients to develop intensive care unit-acquired weakness (ICUAW). Furthermore, this condition could increase the

Nerve grafting for peripheral nerve injuries with extended defect sizes
SummaryArtificial and non-artificial nerve grafts are the gold standard in peripheral nerve reconstruction in cases with extensive loss of nerve tissue, particularly where a direct end-to-end suture or an autologous nerve graft is inauspicious. Different

Peripheral Nerve War Injuries [PDF]
The purpose of this study is to evaluate peripheral nerve war injuries sustained during the war in southern Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.During the war in Croatia, 713 patients (99% male and 1% female) with wounds inflicted by firearms were examined at the Laboratory of Neurophysiology, University Hospital, Split.

Assessment, patient selection, and rehabilitation of nerve transfers
Peripheral nerve injuries are common and can have a devastating effect on physical, psychological, and socioeconomic wellbeing. Peripheral nerve transfers have become the standard of care for many types of peripheral nerve injury due to their superior ...

Head-to-nerve analysis of electromechanical impairments of diffuse axonal injury [PDF]
The aim was to investigate mechanical and functional failure of diffuse axonal injury (DAI) in nerve bundles following frontal head impacts, by finite element simulations. Anatomical changes following traumatic brain injury are simulated at the macroscale by using a 3D head model.

An update–tissue engineered nerve grafts for the repair of peripheral nerve injuries
Peripheral nerve injuries (PNI) are caused by a range of etiologies and result in a broad spectrum of disability. While nerve autografts are the current gold standard for the reconstruction of extensive nerve damage, the limited supply of autologous ...

The glia response after peripheral nerve injury: A comparison between Schwann cells and olfactory ensheathing cells and their uses for neural regenerative therapies [PDF]
The peripheral nervous system (PNS) exhibits a much larger capacity for regeneration than the central nervous system (CNS). One reason for this difference is the difference in glial cell types between the two systems.
