Trigeminal Nerve Control of Cerebral Blood Flow: A Brief Review
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 The trigeminal nerve, the fifth cranial nerve, is known to innervate much of the cerebral arterial vasculature and significantly contributes to the control of cerebrovascular tone in both healthy and diseased states.

Understanding novel neuromodulation pathways in tDCS: brain stem recordings in rats during trigeminal nerve direct current stimulation [PDF]
Translational PsychiatrytDCS is widely assumed to cause neuromodulation via the electric field in the cortex acting directly on cortical neurons. However, recent evidence suggests that tDCS may indirectly influence brain activity through cranial nerve pathways, notably the ...

Automatic Segmentation of the Cisternal Segment of Trigeminal Nerve on MRI Using Deep Learning [PDF]
International Journal of Biomedical ImagingConclusion: The proposed deep learning–based approach, U-Net, shows promise in improving the accuracy and efficiency of segmenting the cisternal segment of the trigeminal nerve. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first fully automated segmentation

Hemimasticatory spasm caused by single venous compression of the root of the trigeminal nerve: An MRI study for a case report and review of literature [PDF]
Radiology Case ReportsHemimasticatory spasm is a very rare disorder of the trigeminal nerve characterized by paroxysmal involuntary contraction of the jaw-closing muscles. Although its cause is not fully known, vascular compression of the trigeminal nerve is thought to be ...

The Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, 2022 Introduction Trigeminal neuralgia is a neuropathic pain that occurs in the sensory supply region of the trigeminal nerve (V cranial nerve). The common etiology of trigeminal neuralgia is said to be vascular compression on the trigeminal nerve root.

Treatment Options for Trigeminal Neuralgia
Acta Clinica Croatica, 2022 Trigeminal neuralgia causes severe to excruciating pain that often cannot be successfully reduced with current forms of treatment. The International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) defines trigeminal neuralgia as a sudden, usually unilateral ...

Zoological Letters, 2023 The evolutionary origin of the jaw remains one of the most enigmatic events in vertebrate evolution. The trigeminal nerve is a key component for understanding jaw evolution, as it plays a crucial role as a sensorimotor interface for the effective ...

The effect of stretching on nerve excitability [PDF]
Human Movement Science 86 (2022) 103000, 2022 Nerves are frequently stretched during movement. We investigate here the effect of stretch on nerve excitability within the framework of the soliton theory. This thermodynamic theory for nerve pulse propagation relies on the presence of a melting transition in the nerve membrane.

The Journal of Headache and Pain, 2020 Background There is histological evidence of microstructural changes in the zygomaticotemporal branch of the trigeminal nerve in migraineurs. This raises the possibility that altered trigeminal nerve properties contribute to migraine pathophysiology ...
