Machine Learning Prediction of Hoehn and Yahr Scores at 5‐Years Post‐123I‐Ioflupane SPECT Imaging in a Real‐World Parkinson's Disease Dataset

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) progression is highly heterogeneous, complicating clinical management and prognostication. While machine learning models have been developed using research datasets such as Parkinson's Precision Medicine Initiative (PPMI) and Parkinson's Disease Biomarkers Program (PDBP), their clinical translatability is ...

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 ...

Targeted Muscle Reinnervation for Intuitive Prosthetic Control

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The convergence of medical and technological advances has led to a substantial expansion of therapeutic approaches for patients with limb amputations. Targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) is one of the strategies to improve control of bionic arms and has been applied for more than two decades. Through surgical rewiring of the nerves responsible

Long‐Term Outcomes of Sacral Neuromodulation Explantation: A 12‐Year Experience at a High‐Volume Tertiary Center

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sacral neuromodulation (SNM) is a therapeutic option offered to patients with idiopathic overactive bladder (OAB) or non‐obstructive urinary retention, as an alternative treatment for refractory medical management. It allows for electrical stimulation of inhibitory circuits that modulate the micturition reflex and improve lower ...
