Sonographic changes in denervated facial muscles trough long-term home-based surface electrostimulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction If denervation occurs in facial nerve palsy, muscle atrophy and irreversible loss of function sets in. For the leg muscles paraplegics, surface electrostimulation has been shown to stop reverse these processes. Whether this is also applicable mimic muscles, going be explored study.

Home-based FES for long-term denervated human muscle
We will here discuss the following points related to Home-based Functional Electrical Stimulation (h-b FES) as treatment for patients with permanently denervated muscles in their legs: 1. Upper (UMN) and lower motor neuron (LMN) damage to the lower spinal cord; 2. Muscle atrophy/hypertrophy versus processes of degeneration, regeneration, and recovery; 3. Recovery of twitchand tetanic-contractil...
متن کاملReinnervation events in long term denervated rat muscles
In spite of the surgical approaches utilized to prevent reinnervation from the sciatic proximal stump, some reinnervation of the distal leg muscles occurs, resulting in minimal or substantial recovery of muscle mass and function. These reinnervation events are recognizable at the light microscopy level by size and morphology of the reinnervated myofibers and by the recovery of the fascicle musc...

متن کاملInvestigation of Long Term Trend of Spatio-Temporal changes of Sea Surface Temperature in Oman Sea
Considering the vast application of sea surface temperature in climatic and oceanic investigations, this parameter was studied in Oman Sea from 1986 to 2015. The SST was surveyed using trend analysis and Global and local Moran’s I spatial autocorrelation. In trend analysis, the Mann-Kendall test was used to determine the trend of SST changes and the Sen's Estimator method was used to examine th...
متن کاملThe biology of long-term denervated muscle
This review concentrates on the biology of long-term denervated muscle, especially as it relates to newer techniques for restoring functional mass. After denervation, muscle passes through three stages: 1) immediate loss of voluntary function and rapid loss of mass, 2) increasing atrophy and loss of sarcomeric organization, and 3) muscle fiber degeneration and replacement of muscle by fibrous c...
