Drop foot Post Mitral Valve Replacement and Total correction of Tetralogy of Fallot: A Two Case Report

Surabaya Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Journal, 2019
Background: Peripheral nerve lesion after heart surgery was reported on brachial plexus, phrenic nerve, laryngeal recurrent nerve facial nerve, lumbosacral root and spinal cord. Incidence of peroneal communis nerve lesion after heart surgery was not much

Pulsed electrical stimulation protects neurons in the dorsal root and anterior horn of the spinal cord after peripheral nerve injury

Neural Regeneration Research, 2015
Most studies on peripheral nerve injury have focused on repair at the site of injury, but very few have examined the effects of repair strategies on the more proximal neuronal cell bodies. In this study, an approximately 10-mm-long nerve segment from the

Comparison of different types of therapy for overactive bladder: A systematic review and network meta-analysis

Frontiers in Medicine, 2022
To compare the efficacy and safety of different interventions [including antimuscarinics, mirabegron, OnabotulinumtoxinA, sacral neuromodulation (SNM) and peripheral tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS)] for treating idiopathic overactive bladder (OAB ...

Obstructive sleep apnea improves with non-invasive hypoglossal nerve stimulation using temporal interference

Bioelectronic Medicine, 2023
Background Peripheral nerve stimulation is used in both clinical and fundamental research for therapy and exploration. At present, non-invasive peripheral nerve stimulation still lacks the penetration depth to reach deep nerve targets and the stimulation

Three Useful Tips and Tricks for Intraoperative Nerve Stimulation

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open
Summary:. Disposable handheld nerve stimulators are widely used in peripheral nerve surgery. Such devices stimulate a motor nerve or the motor component of a mixed nerve by applying electrical current to the proximal region, targeting the main nerve ...

High frequency alternating current neurostimulation decreases nocifensive behavior in a disc herniation model of lumbar radiculopathy

Bioelectronic Medicine, 2023
Background The purpose of this study was to evaluate if kilohertz frequency alternating current (KHFAC) stimulation of peripheral nerve could serve as a treatment for lumbar radiculopathy.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

A Wearable System for Attenuating Essential Tremor Based on Peripheral Nerve Stimulation

IEEE Journal of Translational Engineering in Health and Medicine, 2020
Objective: Currently available treatments for kinetic tremor can cause intolerable side effects or be highly invasive and expensive. Even though several studies have shown the positive effects of external feedback (i.e., electrical stimulation) for ...

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.
