Current Concept in Adult Peripheral Nerve and Brachial Plexus Surgery
Journal of Brachial Plexus and Peripheral Nerve Injury, 2017 Peripheral nerve injuries and brachial plexus injuries are relatively frequent. Significance of these injuries lies in the fact that the majority of patients with these types of injuries constitute working population.

Immunomodulatory effects of mesenchymal stem cells in peripheral nerve injury
Stem cell research & therapeutics, 2022 Various immune cells and cytokines are present in the aftermath of peripheral nerve injuries (PNI), and coordination of the local inflammatory response is of great significance for the recovery of PNI.

The Effect of Electrical Stimulation on Nerve Regeneration Following Peripheral Nerve Injury
Biomolecules, 2022 Peripheral nerve injuries (PNI) are common and often result in lifelong disability. The peripheral nervous system has an inherent ability to regenerate following injury, yet complete functional recovery is rare.

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 ...

The glia response after peripheral nerve injury: A comparison between Schwann cells and olfactory ensheathing cells and their uses for neural regenerative therapies [PDF]
, 2017 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.
