A guide to neuromodulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuromodulation is approved for the treatment of drug‐resistant epilepsy. It has been increasingly utilized over the past two decades with the approval of deep brain stimulation (DBS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS) in addition to vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)—particularly in patients who are not deemed to be good resective surgical ...

MR Imaging‐Based Biomarkers for Strength Prediction: A Statistical Shape and Architecture Modeling of Quadriceps Muscles

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Muscle mass decline, associated with strength decline, is a hallmark of aging. Yet, strength decline greatly exceeds mass decline. This indicates that aspects of muscle quality and architecture—not reflected by mass—also influence force generating capacity.

Management of Absent Upper Esophageal Sphincter Opening After Neurological Injury

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study evaluated the effects of swallowing therapy and cricopharyngeus (CP) muscle surgery on upper esophageal sphincter (UES) opening, oral intake, and airway protection in patients with absent UES opening following neurological injury. CP‐targeted surgeries were associated with improved bolus passage and oral intake, but persistent aspiration ...

Midfoot deformities in children with unilateral cerebral palsy

Annals of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine, 2018
Introduction/Background Foot deformations occur in 93% of children with cerebral palsy (CP) leading to disabilities. Forefoot and backfoot deformations are well described, but data regarding midfoot deformation are lacking. This study aim (1) to quantify prevalence of midfoot deformation in the impaired and non-impaired foot of walking children with ...

A randomized crossover study of functional electrical stimulation during walking in spastic cerebral palsy: the FES on participation (FESPa) trial

BMC Pediatrics, 2022
Background Spastic cerebral palsy is the most common cause of motor disability in children. It often leads to foot drop or equinus, interfering with walking. Ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs) are commonly used in these cases.
