Phrenic nerve conduction study in the early stage of guillain–barre syndrome as a predictor of respiratory failure

open access: yesAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology, 2018
Background: Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) has unpredictable clinical course with severe complication of respiratory failure. Objective: To identify clinical profiles and electrophysiological study particularly non-invasive Phrenic nerve conduction study ...

Is Innervation of the Neuromuscular Junction at the Diaphragm Modulated by sGC/cGMP Signaling?

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
We previously reported NO/sGC signaling in the upper respiratory pathway, receiving input from the respiratory neurons of the brainstem to phrenic motoneurons in the C3–C6 spinal cord. In order to assess whether innervation of the neuromuscular junction (

Effect of phrenic nerve palsy on early postoperative lung function after pneumonectomy: a prospective study

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND The issue of phrenic nerve preservation during pneumonectomy is still an unanswered question. So far, its direct effect on immediate postoperative pulmonary lung function has never been evaluated in a prospective trial.

The Mid-Term Changes of Pulmonary Function Tests After Phrenic Nerve Transfer

open access: yesArchives of Trauma Research, 2016
Background In the restoration of elbow flexion, the phrenic nerve has proven to be a good donor, but considering the role of the phrenic nerve in respiratory function, we cannot disregard the potential dangers of this method.

Segmental composition and nerve distribution of the brachial plexus in Galictis cuja

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Galictis cuja is a neotropical mustelid with terrestrial locomotor habits, yet the anatomy of its brachial plexus has remained undescribed. This study characterizes the origin, organization, and distribution of the brachial plexus nerves in 15 adult specimens (30 antimeres).

Feedback strategies: Applying theory to practice

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Feedback is a cornerstone of the learning process, as evidenced by extensive educational research on enhancing its process and impact. However, learners consistently rate the quality of feedback lower compared to other aspects of teaching. Over the past decade, feedback models have shifted from a traditional, one‐way transmission from educator

The importance of phrenic nerve preservation and its effect on long-term postoperative lung function after pneumonectomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
OBJECTIVES The importance of phrenic nerve preservation during pneumonectomy remains controversial. We previously demonstrated that preservation of the phrenic nerve in the immediate postoperative period preserved lung function by 3-5% but little is ...

Reversible bilateral phrenic nerve paralysis

open access: yesRespiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2019
Bilateral phrenic nerve paralysis is a rare potentially life-threatening condition which is usually due to trauma (including surgery) or neurologic disease.

Fiber‐type soft bioelectronics for wearable and implantable sensing and therapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Fiber‐type soft bioelectronics are emerging as versatile platforms for wearable and implantable health monitoring and therapeutic applications. These bioelectronics use organic and inorganic matrices combined with advanced fillers, which feature high conductivity, electrochemical sensitivity, softness, and biocompatibility.

Effect of epileptogenesis on hypercapnic cardioventilatory response in kainic acid rats

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Cardioventilatory failure is the leading mechanism proposed to underlie sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), which occurs predominantly at night in patients with generalized tonic–clonic seizures. Interictal hypercapnic cardioventilatory responses are suggested to be involved, as they are ablated in chronically epileptic ...
