ABSTRACT Objectives Hansen disease is a neglected infectious disease associated with reactional inflammation, neuropathy and long‐term disability. Renal involvement and sarcopenia have been described separately, but their clinical coexistence has received limited attention. This review examines evidence for a hypothesised renal–functional vulnerability

Abstract figure legend The regeneration of Aβ low‐threshold mechanoreceptors (Aβ‐LTMRs), sensory neurons responsible for discriminative touch, has not previously been explored. Here, we took advantage of the selective expression of Calb1 in Aβ‐LTMRs to generate two genetic mouse models for studying their regenerative response after nerve injury.

ABSTRACT Traumatic neuroma of the cystic duct stump is a rare benign lesion that may mimic biliary malignancy, making preoperative diagnosis challenging. We report a case of an enhancing lesion at the cystic duct stump after cholecystectomy that was diagnosed by endoscopic ultrasound‐guided tissue acquisition (EUS‐TA).

Disruption of Lactate Metabolism in the Peripheral Nervous System Leads to Motor‐Selective Deficits
To test the importance of lactate metabolism and shuttling between Schwann cells and neurons in the PNS, we selectively knocked out both LDHA and LDHB in motor neurons, sensory neurons, or Schwann cells. ABSTRACT Schwann cells (SCs) myelinate and provide trophic support to axons in the peripheral nervous system (PNS).
