The potential of electrical stimulation to promote functional recovery after peripheral nerve injury — comparisons between rats and humans

The declining capacity for injured peripheral nerves to regenerate their axons with time and distance is accounted for, at least in part, by the chronic axotomy of the neurons and Schwann cell denervation prio...

Experimental approaches to promote functional recovery after severe peripheral nerve injuries

INTRODUCTION: Reduced regenerative capacity of chronically axotomized neurons and reduced growth support by atrophic Schwann cells are key factors that account for the poor functional outcomes after proximal n...

Immunoglobulin kappa light chain gene alleles are not associated with primary Sjögren’s syndrome

The immunoglobulin kappa (Km) light chain gene is polymorphic and is believed to play a role in the pathology of infectious and autoimmune diseases. Polymorphisms within the constant region of the Km gene enco...

Fatigue in Adapted Systems

Alterations in structural and biochemical properties of muscles that underlie physiological parameters of contractile force, speed and fatigability are described under conditions of 1) overuse: imposed electri...

To What Extent Can Poor Functional Recovery of Denervated Muscles Be Attributed to Incomplete as Opposed to Inappropriate Reinnervation After Surgical Repair of Severed Nerves?

The motor unit, i. e. the nerve and the muscle fibers that it supplies, is the functional unit of movement, being the smallest unit of force which is controlled by synaptic drive in the central nervous system....

Electrical Activity in Injured Peripheral Nerves

Nerve fiber damage elicits a response in the parent neuron and its supporting cells which is often also accompanied by an infiltration of blood-borne cells. The extent and character of this response is related...

Studies on the morphology of human uric acid stones

Human uric acid renal stones are easily distinguished from other urinary calculi by their globular or spherical shape, their colour and their hardness. Investigations of uric acid crystals grown in the presenc...
