Peripheral nerve lesions are frequent occurrences in both human and animal patients,
leading to important physiological and labor complications that affect the quality of life of …

Injury to the facial nerve can occur after different etiologies and range from simple
transection of the branches to varying degrees of segmental loss. Management depends on …

Background: In unilateral facial palsy, cross-face nerve grafts are used for emotional facial
reanimation. Facial nerve regeneration through the grafts takes several months, and the …

Background Recent studies have examined the effects of brief electrical stimulation (BES)
on nerve regeneration, with some suggesting that BES accelerates facial nerve recovery …

Vibrissal whisking is often employed to track facial nerve regeneration in rats; however, we
have observed similar degrees of whisking recovery after facial nerve transection with or …

Abstract Objectives/Hypothesis: Investigators have long sought realistic methods to
accelerate regeneration following nerve injury. Herein, we investigated the degree to which …

Background: Measuring rodent facial movements is a reliable method for studying recovery
from facial nerve manipulation and for examining the behavioral correlates of aberrant …

Objectives: This study aimed to determine whether toll-like receptor expression patterns
differ in the distal facial nerve during recovery after crushing and cutting injuries. Methods …

Objective To establish whether nimodipine, a calcium channel blocker, accelerates or
otherwise improves functional recovery of whisking after facial nerve crush injury in the rat …
