Data on Biomedical Engineering Detailed by M.D. Wood and Co-Authors

2011 SEP 29 -- According to the authors of recent research published in the journal Annals of Anatomy-Anatomischer Anzeiger, "Animal models of nerve compression, crush, and transection injuries of peripheral nerves have been subject to extensive study in order to understand the mechanisms of injury and axon regeneration and to investigate methods to promote axon regeneration and improve functional outcomes following nerve injury. Six outcome measures of regenerative success including axon and neuron counts, muscle and motor unit contractile forces, and behavior are reviewed in the context of nerve injury types, crush, transection and nerve repair by direct coaptation,...
