Endometriosis of the sciatic nerve [PDF]
, manifesting as cyclic sciatica, parestesis and pa-resis with loss of deep tendon reflex. We cite a case of sci-atica endometriosis and make a review of the literature.CASEA 26-year-old Caucasian woman exhibits intense pain and weakness in the lower left limb, which had pro-gressed over the past nine years.

Studies have confirmed that bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can be used for treatment of several nervous system diseases. However, isolation of bone marrow-derived MSCs (BMSCs) is an invasive and painful process and the yield is very ...

Unique Formation of Sciatic Nerve Below the Piriformis Muscle – A Case Report [PDF]
Dorsal and ventral divisions of ventral rami of lower lumbar and sacral spinal nerve were found to pass ventral and dorsal to the piriformis muscle respectively. These divisions joined each other below the piriformis muscle to form sciatic nerve.

Interfacing peripheral nerve with macro-sieve electrodes following spinal cord injury [PDF]
Macro-sieve electrodes were implanted in the sciatic nerve of five adult male Lewis rats following spinal cord injury to assess the ability of the macro-sieve electrode to interface regenerated peripheral nerve fibers post-spinal cord injury. Each spinal

Optical coherence tomography imaging of evoked neural activity in sciatic nerve of rat [PDF]
Significance: Imaging neural activity in myelinated tissue using optical coherence tomography (OCT) creates new possibilities for functional imaging in the peripheral and central nervous systems. Aim: To investigate changes in OCT images in response to evoked neural activity in sciatic nerve of rat in vitro.

Bilateral variant of sciatic nerve exhibiting intra-pelvic division [PDF]
Context (background): In case of high division of the sciatic nerve in the pelvis its, common peroneal component may pierce the Piriformis muscle. This anatomical variant can explain many clinical findings. Aims: Its objective is to report a case of high

The free energy of biomembrane and nerve excitation and the role of anesthetics [PDF]
In the electromechanical theory of nerve stimulation, the nerve impulse consists of a traveling region of solid membrane in a liquid environment. Therefore, the free energy necessary to stimulate a pulse is directly related to the free energy difference necessary to induce a phase transition in the nerve membrane.

XELOXIRI neoadjuvant chemotherapy appears to be feasible and efficacious for patients with LARC. Although neoadjuvant XELOXIRI alone did not yield our expected pCR rate, the local recurrence rate, 3‐year DFS and measures of safety met current standards.
