BACKGROUND
A new model of pain associated with an experimental peripheral mononeuropathy has stimulated interest in mechanisms of pain and their structural correlates in peripheral nerve, the site of the experimental lesion.
METHODS
The pathology of the neuropathy was studied and the results
An experimental neuropathy in rats produced by tying loosely constrictive ligatures around one sciatic nerve has recently been shown to produce pain-related behavior that follows a reproducible time course. In the present study, we assessed the degree of thermal hyperesthesia and examined the
The effects of wire grates on nerve injury and recovery were examined in rats housed in cages with sawdust-covered solid flooring. For the first 3 weeks of the study, 20 rats were housed on sawdust alone and 20 rats were housed in cages with wire grates placed over the sawdust. For the remaining 9
Nerve ischemia induces wallerian degeneration and peripheral neuropathy, the nerve constriction injury induces thermal hyperesthesia. Nerve ischemia is one possible mechanism in the development of thermal hyperesthesia in the nerve constriction injury model. Prostaglandin E1 increases tissue blood
Cattle in western Uruguay that were eating Solanum bonariense developed periodic episodes of ataxia, hypermetria, hyperesthesia, head and thoracic limb extension, opisthotonus, nystagmus, and falling to the side or backward. Similar clinical signs were experimentally reproduced in cattle by
Our previous studies have established that (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) has both neuroprotective and -regenerative capacity after sciatic nerve injury. Moreover, this improvement was evident on the behavioral level. The aim of this study was to investigate the central effects of ECGC on
A 52 year old female with Parry-Romberg syndrome presented with gradual atrophy of the subcutaneous fat and muscle on her chest and back. The disease process was limited to the C3 to T2 dermatomes on the right side. In addition, there was muscle atrophy of the right arm and extending down the back
BACKGROUND
We present a patient with idiopathic spinal cord herniation (ISCH) whose dura mater was histopathologically examined to elucidate its pathogenesis.
METHODS
A 33-year-old previously healthy man presented with progressive walking difficulty, spasticity of the right lower leg, and
The results of electrodiagnostic studies on 557 hands of 383 patients with the clinical diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) are described. History taking, examination and electrodiagnostic studies were performed by the same neurologist (MPH). The diagnostic sensitivity for the distal motor
Diabetic polyneuropathy is a complex set of clinical syndromes, which deplete various regions of the nervous system. The process leading to diabetic neuropathy is multi-factorial. Its symptoms are paresthesia, dysesthesia and pain. The signs of damage to the peripheral neurons are hypoesthesia,
A three-year-old male Boxer dog had hyperesthesia, symmetrical epaxial, gluteal and hind limb muscular atrophy and rear limb ataxia. Neurological deficits included decreased conscious proprioception of the left hind limb, decreased withdrawal and increased patellar reflexes of both hind limbs. The
We report a 9-year-old girl with acute autonomic sensory and motor neuropathy (AASM) associated with human parvovirus B19 (HPV-B19) infection. The patient presented with fever, erythema of the entire body, and abdominal pain with vomiting. The titer of HPV-B19 IgM antibody was significantly
METHODS
Case report and literature review.
OBJECTIVE
To present a unique case of Achromobacter xylosoxidans infection secondary to oxygen-ozone therapy for the treatment of L5-S1 disc herniation.
BACKGROUND
Oxygen-ozone therapy is a minimally invasive technique for the treatment of lumbar disc
Sural nerve biopsies of four patients, aged 54--76 years, with a predominantly sensory type of neuropathy following high dosages of thalidomide were examined by light and electron microscopy. The present study includes a qualitative and quantitative evaluation of unmyelinated nerve fibers. Despite
OBJECTIVE To characterize outcomes following nonsurgical treatment of congenital thoracic vertebral body malformations causing neurologic deficits in dogs. DESIGN Retrospective case series. ANIMALS 13 client-owned dogs treated nonsurgically for congenital thoracic vertebral body malformations at 3
