A critical review of interfaces with the peripheral nervous system for the control of neuroprostheses and hybrid bionic systems Tập 10 Số 3 - Trang 229-258 - 2005
Xavier Navarro, Thilo B. Krueger, Natalia Lago, Silvestro Micera, Thomas Stieglitz, Paolo Dario
Abstract Considerable scientific and technological efforts have been devoted to develop neuroprostheses and hybrid bionic systems that link the human nervous system with electronic or robotic prostheses, with the main aim of restoring motor and sensory functions in disabled patients. A number of neuroprostheses use interfaces with peripheral nerves or muscles for ne...... hiện toàn bộ
Reliability of the CMT neuropathy score (second version) in Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth disease Tập 16 Số 3 - Trang 191-198 - 2011
Sinéad M. Murphy, David N. Herrmann, Michael McDermott, Steven S. Scherer, Michael E. Shy, Mary M. Reilly, Davide Pareyson
The Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth neuropathy score (CMTNS) is a reliable and valid composite score comprising symptoms, signs, and neurophysiological tests, which has been used in natural history studies of CMT1A and CMT1X and as an outcome measure in treatment trials of CMT1A. Following an international workshop on outcome measures in Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth disease (CMT), the CMTNS was modified to att...... hiện toàn bộ
“Red‐flag” symptom clusters in transthyretin familial amyloid polyneuropathy Tập 21 Số 1 - Trang 5-9 - 2016
Isabel Conceição, Alejandra González‐Duarte, Laura Obici, Hartmut Schmidt, D. Simoneau, Moh‐Lim Ong, Leslie Amass
AbstractTransthyretin familial amyloid polyneuropathy (TTR‐FAP) is a rare, progressive, life‐threatening, hereditary disorder caused by mutations in the transthyretin gene and characterized by extracellular deposition of transthyretin‐derived amyloid fibrils in peripheral and autonomic nerves, heart, and...... hiện toàn bộ
Guillain‐Barré syndrome during SARS‐CoV‐2 pandemic: A case report and review of recent literature Tập 25 Số 2 - Trang 204-207 - 2020
Erika Scheidl, Daniel Diez Canseco, Aleksandar Hadji‐Naumov, Benjámin Bereznai
AbstractAcute demyelinating inflammatory polyneuropathy (AIDP) is the most common type of Guillain‐Barré syndrome (GBS) in Europe, following several viral and bacterial infections. Data on AIDP‐patients associated with SARS‐CoV‐2 (coronavirus‐2) infection are scarce. We describe the case of a 54‐years‐old Caucasian female patient with typical clinical and electroph...... hiện toàn bộ
Deletion of Sarm1 gene is neuroprotective in two models of peripheral neuropathy Tập 22 Số 3 - Trang 162-171 - 2017
Elliot Turkiew, Debbie Falconer, Nicole Reed, Ahmet Höke
AbstractDistal axon degeneration seen in many peripheral neuropathies is likely to share common molecular mechanisms with Wallerian degeneration. Although several studies in mouse models of peripheral neuropathy showed prevention of axon degeneration in the slow Wallerian degeneration (Wlds) mouse, the role of a recently identified player in Wallerian degeneration,...... hiện toàn bộ
Recurrences, vaccinations and long‐term symptoms in GBS and CIDP Tập 14 Số 4 - Trang 310-315 - 2009
Krista Kuitwaard, Martine E. Bos‐Eyssen, Patricia H. Blomkwist‐Markens, Anneke J. van der Kooi
Abstract We determined the frequency of recurrent Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS), whether vaccinations led to recurrences of GBS or an increase of disability in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) and we assessed the prevalence of pain, fatigue and the impact on quality of life after GBS and CIDP. Additionally, we assessed the presence of...... hiện toàn bộ
Different expressions of BDNF, NT3, and NT4 in muscle and nerve after various types of peripheral nerve injuries Tập 10 Số 3 - Trang 293-300 - 2005
Takao Omura, Mizuka Sano, Kumiko Omura, Tomohiko Hasegawa, Mitsuhito Doi, Tomokazu Sawada, Akira Nagano
Abstract The changes in the expression of brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neurotrophin‐3 (NT‐3), and neurotrophin‐4 (NT‐4) in the rat neuromuscular system as a result of three different types of sciatic nerve injuries have been evaluated. The changes in mRNA and protein levels for BDNF, NT‐3, and NT‐4 in the soleus muscle and sciatic nerve were assessed 4–...... hiện toàn bộ
Peroneal neuropathy after weight loss Tập 5 Số 2 - Trang 101-105 - 2000
A Cruz-Martínez, Javier Arpa, Francesc Palau
Abstract The objectives of this study were to evaluate the clinical and electrophysiological findings in peroneal mononeuropathies following a weight‐reduction diet. Thirty patients with acute peroneal palsy and weight loss were studied. Complete nerve conduction studies (NCS) were performed in upper and lower limbs. NCS showed conduction block (CB) of the peroneal ...... hiện toàn bộ
Identification of novel sequence variants in the neurofilament‐light gene in a Japanese population: analysis of Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth disease patients and normal individuals Tập 7 Số 4 - Trang 221-224 - 2002
Tsuyoshi Yoshihara, Masahiko Yamamoto, Naoki Hattori, Kazuhiko Misu, Keiko Mori, Haruki Koike, Gen Sobue
Abstract Mutations of the neurofilament‐light (NEFL/NF‐L) gene were examined in 124 unrelated Japanese patients with Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth disease (CMT) without known gene mutations, and 248 normal Japanese individuals. A new method, which can detect basepair mismatches with RNase cleavage on agarose gel electrophoresis, coupled with DNA sequencing, identified 8 novel...... hiện toàn bộ
Inhibition of complement in Guillain‐Barré syndrome: the ICA‐GBS study Tập 22 Số 1 - Trang 4-12 - 2017
