The inter- and intraobserver reliability of the walking-track analysis of sciatic nerve function in the rat was assessed. Twenty-five walking tracks were assessed on three different occasions by four observers. Whereas the interobserver reliability was found to be excellent (r = 0.92), the intraobse

The effect of age upon the axoplasmic transport of glycerophospholipids has been studied using as a model the regenerating sciatic nerve of young (2-month-old), young adult (6-month-old), middle-aged (16-month-old), and aged (20-month-old) male rats. The right sciatic nerve was crushed 0.5 mm down t
The effect of low-intensity millimeter wave electromagnetic radiation (MWR) on regeneration of the rat sciatic nerve after transection and microsurgical reapproximation was examined. Rats were exposed to 54 GHz MWR at a power density of 4 mW/cm\*. It was found that MWR treatment of the femoral skin
An experimental model for local administration of neurotrophic growth factor (NGF) in peripheral nerve lesions is tested. The model consists of a subcutaneous reservoir connected to the sciatic nerve neurorrhaphy. The right sciatic nerves were exposed, severed, and repaired at a level 1.5 cm proxima
