A Pain in the Buttocks: Practice Article for Sonographically Imaging the Quadratus Femoris and Ischiofemoral Impingement

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Hip external rotation can cause compression of the quadratus femoris (QF) between the ischial tuberosity and lesser trochanter of the femur, resulting in pain in the buttock, hip, and groin which can radiate down the leg. Ultrasound imaging can demonstrate dynamic impingement of the QF, including symptom provocation.

Pelvic Exenteration for Cervical Cancer: Oncological, Morbidity and Quality of Life Outcomes

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives One third of patients who undergo definitive chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced cervical cancer develop disease recurrence. Salvage surgery in the form of pelvic exenteration (PE) may offer improved survival and possibly cure in carefully selected patients, however robust data is scarce.

Neuroprotective Effects of Halofuginone in Rat's Sciatic Nerve Injury

World Neurosurgery
The object of the present study was to investigate the neuroprotective effects of halofuginone-with its antifibrotic and anti-inflammatory effects-on peripheral nerve injuries frequently encountered in daily life, at the functional, pathological, and cellular levels through the use of electron microscopy.Forty Wistar rats were distributed into 4 groups.

Novel Injectable Supports Long‐Term Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve and Partial Peripheral Nerve Repair

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Following recurrent laryngeal nerve transection in C57BL/6 mice, intramuscular Agrin, neuregulin‐1, and acetylcholine treatment of the thyroarytenoid muscle supported functional reinnervation and preservation of neuromuscular structure at 84 days.

Optical Stimulation and Monitoring of the Peripheral Nervous System: Perspectives and Challenges Toward Clinical Translation

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Optical neuromodulation with IR light allows stimulation of the PNS without the need for physical contact with the target nerve or without requiring any genetic modification. The clinical translation of this technique will pave the way to the development of neural interfaces for restoring sensory feedback in individuals with limb amputation.

Injection-induced sciatic nerve injury in Ugandan children

, 2010
In developing countries, sciatic nerve injury following gluteal intramuscular injection is a persistent problem. A study over 6 months involving 133 children seen in Mulago hospital with acute flaccid paralysis revealed 124 (93%) children with injection-

Repurposing antimicrobial agents for neuroprotection: Mechanisms, clinical potential, and challenges

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial agents exert neuroprotective effects through modulation of interconnected pathways. Tetracyclines, macrolides, antimalarial agents, sulfones, and antiparasitic agents suppress neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis while preserving mitochondrial function and neurotransmission.

Transplantation of Neural Progenitor Cells Differentiated from Adipose Tissue-Derived Stem Cells for Treatment of Sciatic Nerve Injury

Brain Science Advances, 2016
Objectives Currently, the clinical repair of sciatic nerve injury remains difficult. Previous studies have confirmed that transplantation of adipose tissue-derived stem cells promotes nerve regeneration and restoration at peripheral nerve injury sites ...

Percutaneous peripheral nerve stimulation as an ancillary treatment following nerve repair surgery

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Neuropathic pain after peripheral nerve injury severely degrades quality of life. Peripheral nerve stimulation (PN‐Stim) is cleared by the U.S, Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of acute and chronic pain. This broad indication supports its potential use at the time of peripheral nerve repair in patients reporting ...

The effect of different designs of custom foot orthoses on pain and balance in individuals with plantar fasciitis: A randomized controlled trial with 6‐month follow‐up

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Plantar fasciitis (PF) is a common cause of heel pain that significantly affects daily activities. Although custom foot orthoses (CFOs) are widely used to treat this condition, there is limited evidence comparing different orthotic designs and their effects on balance parameters.
