1. Tibial and fibular nerves evaluation using intraoperative electromyography in rats
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To evaluate a new model of intraoperative electromyographic (EMG) assessment of the tibial and fibular nerves, and its respectives motor units in rats. METHODS: Eight Wistar rats underwent intraoperative EMG on both hind limbs at two different moments: week 0 and week 12. Supramaximal electrical stimulation applied on sciatic nerve, and

2. Short hairpin RNA targeting insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 restores the bioavailability of insulin-like growth factor-1 in diabetic rats
ABSTRACT Purpose To investigate whether intracavernosal injection of short hairpin RNA for IGFBP-3 could improve erectile function in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Materials and methods After 12 weeks of IGFBP-3 short hairpin RNA injection treatment, intracavernous pressure responses to electrical stimulation of cavernous nerves were evaluated. T

3. Stretch-induced nerve injury: a proposed technique for the study of nerve regeneration and evaluation of the influence of gabapentin on this model
The rat models currently employed for studies of nerve regeneration present distinct disadvantages. We propose a new technique of stretch-induced nerve injury, used here to evaluate the influence of gabapentin (GBP) on nerve regeneration. Male Wistar rats (300 g; n=36) underwent surgery and exposure of the median nerve in the right forelimbs, either with or

4. Evaluation of the neuromuscular compartments in the peroneus longus muscle through electrical stimulation and accelerometry
BACKGROUND: Muscles are innervated exclusively by a nerve branch and possess definite actions. However, mammalian skeletal muscles, such as the trapezius, the medial gastrocnemius, and the peroneus longus, are compartmentalized. In the peroneus longus muscle, multiple motor points, which innervate individual neuromuscular compartments (NMC), the superior (

5. Mapeamento anatômico e funcional das aferências nociceptivas ao núcleo paratrigeminal dos nervos facial, mediano e ciático. / Sciatic, Median and Orofacial Nociceptives Inputs to the Paratrigeminal Nucleus: a funcional and anatomical investigations.
Investigations show the paratrigeminal nucleus (Pa5) as an input site for sensory information from the facial, median and sciatic nerves fields. This study aimed at determining the facial, median and sciatic nerve projections to the dorsal lateral medulla and compared the topographical distribution of the input sites of these nerves to that of nuclear c-Fos

6. Prilocaína e lidocaína, administradas com a orientação do estimulador de nervo periférico, no bloqueio do plexo braquial, em cães. / Prilocaine and lidocaine, administered with the help of a peripheral nerve stimulator for brachial plexus block in dogs.
Our objective was to verify if the combination of a peripheral nerve stimulator with prilocaine 3% or lidocaine 2% constitute effective techniques for brachial plexus block, while comparing the benefits and disadvantages of the two substances used. Thirty dogs were included in this research, obtained from the Veterinary Hospital at the UFRPE. All animals wer

7. Efeito da eletroestimulação nervosa transcutânea de alta e baixa frequência no alívio da dor de puérperas pós-episiotomia: estudo clínico, randomizado e duplo cego / Effect of high and low frequency transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation in postpartum pain relief after episiotomy: a clinical, randomized and double blind study
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a non-invasive method that has as main purpose the relief of pain. The perineal pain after episiotomy is a frequent complaint in the puerperium that can interfere in many daily activities of puerperae. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of high and low frequency TENS in postpartum pain relie

8. Evidence that blood pressure remains under the control of arterial baroreceptors in renal hypertensive rats
The purpose of the present study was to determine the range of the influence of the baroreflex on blood pressure in chronic renal hypertensive rats. Supramaximal electrical stimulation of the aortic depressor nerve and section of the baroreceptor nerves (sinoaortic denervation) were used to obtain a global analysis of the baroreceptor-sympathetic reflex in n

9. Structural and functional aspects in Möbius syndrome children: a speech therapy view / Aspectos estruturais e funcionais em crianças portadoras da seqüência de Möbius: uma visão fonoaudiológica
The aim of this study was to evaluate MS oral miofunctional system and stomatognathic functions in order to define MS phonoaudiological structural phenotype and correlate any changes with the affected anatomical structures, aiming at preparing a standard of care program targeted to MS. Thirty-one male and female patients aged 4 to 16 years old were examined

10. The challenge of overactive bladder therapy: alternative to antimuscarinic agents
Contemporary, the management of overactive bladder (OAB), a medical condition characterized by urgency, with or without urge urinary incontinence, frequency and nocturia, in absence of genitourinary pathologies or metabolic factors that could explain these symptoms, is complex, and a wide range of conservative treatments has been offered, including bladder t

11. "Investigações sobre o controle neuromotor do músculo reto do abdome" / INVESTIGATIONS ABOUT THE NEUROMOTOR CONTROL OF THE RECTUS ABDOMINIS MUSCLE
The rectus abdominis is an important muscle of the abdominal wall; it is responsible for the stabilization and function of the spine, as to athletic activity as daily activity. However, we do not have enough knowledge about the neuromotor control of this structure in voluntary activities, like abdominal exercises and how different tasks alter the segmental a

12. Modulation of hormone secretion by functional electrical stimulation of the intact and incompletely dysfunctional dog pancreas
The purpose of the present study was to modulate the secretion of insulin and glucagon in Beagle dogs by stimulation of nerves innervating the intact and partly dysfunctional pancreas. Three 33-electrode spiral cuffs were implanted on the vagus, splanchnic and pancreatic nerves in each of two animals. Partial dysfunction of the pancreas was induced with allo
