Clinical Study of Ultrasound‐Guided Modified Percutaneous Endoscopic Interlaminar Discectomy Combined With Medical Chitosan in Lumbar 4–5 Disc Herniation Treatment

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Ultrasound‐guided PEID plus medical chitosan can effectively reduce postoperative pain and perioperative complications, demonstrating superior clinical efficacy. ABSTRACT Objective Percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy (PELD) is a preferred minimally invasive surgery for lumbar disc herniation (LDH); however, postoperative recurrence, nerve root ...

An easy-to-build transcutaneous electrical stimulator for spinal cord stimulation therapy

, 2022
Abstract Transcutaneous electrical spinal cord stimulation, a non-invasive, reversible spinal cord neuromodulation method holds tremendous promise and hope for the people with paralysis resultant of spinal cord injury (SCI) and other neurological conditions. Yet, there are not many options of such stimulation device compared to other successful

Ergogenic effects of spinal cord stimulation on exercise performance following spinal cord injury

Frontiers in Neuroscience
Cervical or upper-thoracic spinal cord injury (SCI, ≥T6) often leads to low resting blood pressure (BP) and impaired cardiovascular responses to acute exercise due to disrupted supraspinal sympathetic drive.

Optimization of photobiomodulation therapy for spinal cord injury: A review

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy in the red and near‐infrared range can significantly modulate the secondary injury response and promote the reparative and regenerative potential of neural tissue after spinal cord injury (SCI). At present, due to the nature of delivery methods, the most effective dose and irradiance at the injury site to optimize ...

Acute intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia augments left ventricular contractility

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Twenty‐four healthy adults were studied to determine the effects of an acute session of 40 min of intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia on cardiac performance. Cardiac function was assessed via echocardiography at rest and during graded stages of lower‐body negative pressure before and after the intervention to quantify load ...
