Status epilepticus (SE) models in rodents are commonly used to research mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE) in translational epilepsy research. However, due to differences in susceptibility of mice strains to chemoconvulsants, developing this model in mice is challenging. Mice offer experimental advantages; in particular, the ability to use transg...

Background Pressure injuries (PIs), especially in the sacral region are frequent, costly, and increase morbidity and mortality of patients in an intensive care unit (ICU). These injuries can occur as a result of prolonged pressure and/or shear forces. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) can increase muscle mass and improve local circulation...

Background Implantable neuroprostheses consisting of a central electronic unit wired to electrodes benefit thousands of patients worldwide. However, they present limitations that restrict their use. Those limitations, which are more adverse in motor neuroprostheses, mostly arise from their bulkiness and the need to perform complex surgical implanta...

Recently we described mapping of the lingual nerve clinically in patients using electrical nerve stimulation. This paper reports results of a larger study with inter- and intra-observer reliability and comparison with positional measurements from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In 50 healthy participants, measurements were taken when subjects fel...

Data in Brief
Nine 8 C57Bl6 mice (9 ± 0.5 months) were utilised for this dataset. Each animal was scanned twice on a 9.4T Bruker Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanner using a cryogenically cooled coil with 0.1 mg/kg body weight/h (low) or 0.3 mg/kg body weight/h (high) medetomidine doses; 0.5% isoflurane was used in conjunction with both doses. The scans were...

Trials
Multi-site studies in stroke rehabilitation are important for determining whether a technology and/or treatment can be successfully administered by sites other than the originating site and with similar positive outcomes. This study is the first multi-site clinical trial of a novel intervention for post-stroke upper limb rehabilitation called contr...

Background This study aimed to systematically review the literature to better understand the efficacy of electrical stimulation (ES) for the treatment of patients with diabetes-related ulcers. Methods We searched the Embase, Medline, and Cochrane Library databases through July 31, 2021. Original trials for ES treatment of patients with diabetes-rel...

Background: Vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) is a Food and Drug Administration approved therapy for seizures with a suggested mechanism of action consisting of cortical desynchronization, facilitated through broad release of inhibitory neurotransmitters in the cortex and brainstem. The vagus nerve contains visceral afferents that transmit sensory sign...

This systematic review and meta-analysis was aimed at investigating the safety and short- and long-term efficacy of electrical stimulation (ES) in women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI). PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane database were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) conducted up to 2020. Studies comparing ES with sham ES or no...

Electrical stimulation has shown to be a promising approach for promoting osseointegration in bone anchoring implants, where osseointegration defines the biological bonding between the implant surface and bone tissue. Bone-anchored implants are used in the rehabilitation of hearing and limb loss, and extensively in edentulous patients. Inadequate o...
