Electrical Modalities in the Rehabilitation of Peripheral Nerve Injuries: State of the Literature and Current Clinical Applications

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) are a common cause of long‐term motor and sensory disability despite advances in microsurgical repair. Functional recovery following PNI depends not only on axonal regeneration, but also on preservation of distal nerve pathways, maintenance of neuromuscular junction integrity, prevention of irreversible muscle ...

Therapeutic Impact of GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists on Parkinson's Disease: A Scoping Review

Neurology and Clinical Neuroscience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT No disease‐modifying treatment exists for Parkinson's disease (PD). Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) have gained attention as promising candidates for neuroprotection, given documented expression of GLP‐1 receptors within the central nervous system and the contribution of brain insulin resistance to dopaminergic ...

Sarcopenia and Neurosurgery

Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society, 2014
Aging process can be characterized as a spontaneous decrease of function in various organs with age. Muscle, as a big organ of human body, undergoes aging process presenting with loss of muscle mass, "sarcopenia". Recently, several working groups have tried to make consensus about sarcopenia for definition and diagnosis.

Outpatient preoperative parenteral nutrition in malnourished surgical patients: A feasibility study (the OPPORTUNITY study)

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Preoperative parenteral nutrition (PN) improves outcomes in malnourished surgical patients. Traditionally, this requires hospital admission, increasing length of stay and costs—challenges worsened by limited hospital bed availability. Outpatient PN may offer a feasible alternative.

The associations between sarcopenia risk, malnutrition, and mortality in adults admitted to an intensive care unit: A prospective, cohort study

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sarcopenia and malnutrition are associated with mortality, including in adults admitted to an intensive care unit. However, their relationships with each other and with intensive care unit mortality, independently, in mechanically ventilated adults are unclear.
