Objective The trauma caused during cochlear implant insertion can lead to cell death and a
loss of residual hair cells in the cochlea. Various therapeutic approaches have been studied …

Background Outcome of acute experimental spinal cord injury is strongly associated with
tissue perfusion and oxygenation. Cardiopulmonary depression could affect outcome in …

Background: CI surgery often results in a loss of residual hearing. In preclinical studies, local
application of controlled, mild therapeutic hypothermia has shown promising results as a …

Objective. Neuroprosthetics hold tremendous promise to restore function through brain-
computer interfaced devices. However, clinical applications of implantable microelectrodes …

Despite more than 80 years of animal experiments and clinical practice, efficacy of
hypothermia in improving treatment outcomes in patients suffering from cell and tissue …

Objective: Study perioperative strategies for optimizing neuroprotection in complex spine
deformity correction surgery. Methods: We report the case of a patient with severe lumbar …

For the treatment of acute cervical spinal cord injuries, a local epidural cooling system using
a percutaneous technique was proposed. In this animal study, regional low temperature was …

TO THE EDITOR: We read with great interest the recent paper by Hansebout and
Hansebout9 on local cooling for spinal cord injury (SCI)(Hansebout RR, Hansebout CR …

Objective: Cochlear implants are the most successful neuroprostheses. Unfortunately, the
trauma caused during cochlear implant insertion can lead to a loss of residual hair cells in …

Most healthy human beings maintain a core temperature of 37.0 C (98.6 F) regardless of
surrounding environmental conditions. Of course, our temperature normally varies slightly …
