Multiparametric Quantitative MRI of Peripheral Nerves to Differentiate Demyelinating From Axonal Polyneuropathies

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Differentiating demyelinating from axonal polyneuropathies helps for accurate diagnosis and treatment. However, the current clinical tools lack sensitivity to confirm demyelination in peripheral nerves, particularly for proximal nerves.

Administration of Schwann Cell‐Like Cells Differentiated From Tonsil‐Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Promotes Peripheral Nerve Regeneration by Inducing Macrophage Polarization in a Chronic Constriction Injury Model

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
TMSC‐SCs were mixed with fibrin adhesive and administered into the sciatic nerve of CCI rats, and nerve conduction studies and histopathological observations confirmed the regeneration of the peripheral nerve and gastrocnemius muscle. In addition, the expression of M1 and M2 macrophage markers was observed after the administration of TMSC‐SCs. ABSTRACT

With Regard to the Expression Status of Sarcolemmal Aquaporin 4 in Human Muscular Dystrophies

Neurology and Clinical Neuroscience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human muscular dystrophies are inherited muscle‐wasting diseases caused by the various kinds of gene mutations. Among them, Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a representative type. Before the discovery of the causative dystrophin gene of DMD, the fragile myofiber plasma membrane was thought to be the trigger of myofiber necrosis in DMD ...

No increased risk of spinal cerebrospinal fluid leak after spinal manipulative therapy: A retrospective cohort study

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Spinal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks, a rare but debilitating condition, have been described following spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) in case reports. However, the nature of the potential association between SMT and CSF leak is uncertain, and symptoms such as neck pain or headache may reflect preexisting leaks rather than ...

Oncovascular Resection in Pelvic Exenteration: A Systematic Review

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Risk of bias assessment using ROBINS‐1 V2. Selection of the reported result (D7) was judged based on omission of key expected outcomes, including margin status (R0 resection), postoperative complications and mortality. Studies not reporting these outcomes were classified as serious risk of bias, while those with broadly complete but non‐pre‐specified ...
