Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation during short‐term motor practice drives cortical plasticity without behavioural improvement

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) was applied during short‐term dexterous motor practice to examine its effects on behavioural performance and neural plasticity. Healthy participants practiced a two‐ball rotation task while receiving taVNS or sham stimulation.

Spinal Regulation of Posture: Effects of Transcutaneous Spinal Cord and Affective Sound Stimulation

Life
The combined effects of transcutaneous electrical stimulation (tES) of the spinal cord and affective sound stimulation on postural control were investigated to elucidate the involvement of spinal networks in the maintenance of vertical stability. Healthy volunteers (n = 27) underwent tES and sound stimulation separately and combined quasi-randomly. All

Modulation of Forward Propulsion and Foot Dorsiflexion by Spinal and Muscular Stimulation During Human Stepping

Life
(1) Background: We developed a novel technology that regulates human locomotion using transcutaneous electrical spinal cord stimulation to activate spinal locomotor networks and posterior root stimulation to activate leg flexor and extensor motor pools ...

A Porcine Model of Intervertebral Disc Injury Recapitulates Human Discogenic Pain Via Notochordal Cell Loss and Pain‐Inducing Nucleus Pulposus Cell Emergence

JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
A porcine model of disc injury recapitulates key clinical, histological, and molecular features of human discogenic low back pain. Multi‐omics analyses identify a shift from notochordal cells to pain‐associated nucleus pulposus cells as a potential driver of disease progression. ABSTRACT Background Lower back pain (LBP) is one of the most common causes

Prognostic Factors for Postoperative Complications. An Aggregate Protocol for 10 Observational Studies From the Danish TRIPLE‐A Cohort of 1.2 Million Surgeries

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, Volume 70, Issue 7, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Postoperative complications substantially increase morbidity, mortality and healthcare costs. Understanding prognostic factors is essential for risk stratification, targeted prevention strategies, and development of prediction models.

Analgesic effects of alpha‐2‐adrenoreceptor agonists in equine medicine: systemic, spinal, and local applications

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 8, Page 442-452, August 2026.
Summary Alpha‐2‐adrenoreceptor agonists provide analgesia when used as sole agents but can also be used in combination with other drugs for their additive and potentially synergistic effects. Further, because of their effects on blood flow, alpha‐2‐adrenoreceptor agonists act to extend and perhaps intensify the effects of drugs, such as local ...

Cell Adhesion by Design: Engineering Tissue Culture Scaffolds With Adhesion Cues

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 13, 7 July 2026.
ABSTRACT In scaffold‐based tissue engineering, the matrix should provide adequate adhesion cues for cell attachment, spreading, and function. Given the multitude of adhesion receptors and the diversity of scaffolds, there are many approaches to render scaffolds adhesive, even though they are not all equivalent.

Chronic idiopathic urinary retention and Fowler's syndrome in women: A multidisciplinary framework for assessment and nonsurgical management

BJUI Compass, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Chronic idiopathic urinary retention and Fowler's syndrome are a debilitating problem primarily affecting women, characterised by an inability to urinate in the absence of any identifiable structural or other cause. An increasingly wide range of multifactorial predisposing, precipitating, and perpetuating biopsychosocial factors are being ...

Postherpetic Neuralgia: Mechanisms, Risk Factors, and Stratified Management—A Narrative Review

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 7, July 2026.
The incidence of PHN is increasing, posing a substantial public health burden. Its pathogenesis involves VZV reactivation, peripheral and central sensitization, and genetic susceptibility, with key risk factors including older age, severe acute pain, extensive rash, immunocompromise, comorbidities, and delayed treatment.

17. Cancer Pain: Part I: Cordotomy for Unilateral Pain due to Cancer

Pain Practice, Volume 26, Issue 6, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Despite advancements in pharmacological and intrathecal treatment of oncological pain, it remains a significant challenge, affecting 44.5% of patients with cancer, with 30.6% experiencing moderate‐to‐severe pain. Methods This scoping review provides a summary of the literature from 2016 to 2024, focusing on percutaneous cordotomy ...
