Laryngeal Cryotherapy for Neurogenic Cough: Safety, Feasibility, and Prospective Outcomes

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
A prospective clinical trial investigated the safety and clinical outcomes of office‐based selective laryngeal cryotherapy for patients with refractory chronic cough. Patient were followed for 6 months posttreatment and had durable improvement in cough severity index and urge‐to‐cough scores and no serious long term adverse effects.

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.

The somatosensory side of the affordance: How seeing an object influences touch

NeuroImage
Object perception is inherently multisensory, as the brain integrates information across sensory modalities to facilitate the interaction with them. This intrinsic ‘action potential’ of objects is described by the concept of affordance, which refers to ...

Orthostatic Myoclonus—Clinical and Electrophysiological Features in a Large Retrospective Cohort

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Orthostatic myoclonus is characterized by irregular, lower limb myoclonic bursts during stance and is a major cause of postural instability and falls. However, studies are limited, and little is known about its pathophysiology. Objectives We sought to define the clinical and electrophysiological features of orthostatic myoclonus in ...

Association of perioperative intravenous lignocaine and intraoperative neuromonitoring in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis surgery: a retrospective study

Perioperative Medicine
Background The use of intravenous (IV) lignocaine as an analgesic adjunct is increasing, but its impact on intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) remains unclear.

A Randomized Controlled Trial of Dual Upper‐Extremity Training [DUET]: Combining Neurologic Music Therapy® with Noninvasive Brain Stimulation for Upper‐Limb Performance in Corticobasal Syndrome

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Corticobasal syndrome (CBS) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition characterized by asymmetric limb rigidity, apraxia, dystonia, and myoclonus, with no approved symptomatic or disease‐modifying drug treatments. Neurologic music therapy (NMT)® employs evidence‐based techniques targeting sensorimotor rehabilitation, and high ...

Staged Bilateral Magnetic Resonance‐Guided Focused Ultrasound for Treating Essential Tremor: Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Unilateral magnetic resonance guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) thalamotomy reduces tremor in essential tremor, yet disability often persists on the untreated side. The added benefit and safety of a staged contralateral lesion remain uncertain.

Early and Extensive Degeneration of Sensory Neurons in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Postmortem studies have shown significant degeneration of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) in spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3). Although PNS involvement accelerates overall ataxia progression, PNS biomarkers for therapeutic trials are lacking and our mechanistic understanding of related clinical manifestations remains ...

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 ...
