background: the standard method for repair of an injured peripheal nerve is epineural repair with separate sutures. herein we describe a method in which the nerve is sutured with continous sutures. in fact this method has not been utilized for nerve repair previously and our purpose was to compare it to the standard method. if it proved to be successful it would replace the standard method in c...

Tremor is a rare manifestation after neck injury, and its physiological mechanism has not been elucidated. We studied the effects of torque loading and ischaemic nerve block on coarse postural tremor in the right upper extremity, which had developed in association with a C7-C8 radiculopathy after traumatic neck injury in a 55 year old man. Loading reduced the tremor frequency from 6.1 Hz to 4.2...

Recording of sensory information from afferent fibers can be used as feedback for the closed-loop control of neural prostheses. Clinical applications suggest that recording selectively from various nerve fascicles is important. Current nerve cuff electrodes are generally circular in shape and use a tripolar recording configuration. Preliminary experiments suggest that slowly changing the shape ...

During orthostatic stress, arterial and cardiopulmonary baroreflexes play a key role in maintaining arterial pressure by regulating heart rate. This study presents a mathematical model that can predict the dynamics of heart rate regulation in response to postural change from sitting to standing. The model uses blood pressure measured in the finger as an input to model heart rate dynamics in res...

The effect of proprioceptive feedback on the control of posture and locomotion was studied in the crayfish Procambarus clarkii (Girard). Sensory and motor nerves of an isolated crayfish thoracic nerve cord were connected to a computational neuromechanical model of the crayfish thorax and leg. Recorded levator (Lev) and depressor (Dep) nerve activity drove the model Lev and Dep muscles to move t...

Aim: To determine the anatomical variation in mental foramen and to evaluate anterior loop population of Karachi with use cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Study Design: Prospective Place duration: Department Dental Maxillofacial Surgery, Dr. Ishrat-ul-Ibad Khan Institute Oral Health Sciences Dow University during September 2021 February 2022. Methodology: A group 160 subjects were included...

BACKGROUND The facial colliculus is an elevated area that formed by fibers from the motor nucleus of 7`th cranial nerve as they loop over abducens nucleus. Clinical signs and symptoms lesions occur primarily due to injury nucleus, around paramedian pontine reticular formation, medial longitudinal fasciculus. etiology varies age. While tumors, demyelinating lesions, viral infections can be invol...

Previous work showed that repetitive peripheral nerve stimulation can induce plastic changes in motor cortical output. Triggering electrical stimulation of central structures from natural activity can also generate plasticity. In this study, we tested whether triggering peripheral nerve stimulation from muscle activity would likewise induce changes in motor output. We developed a wearable elect...
