Abstract

BACKGROUND Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) can cause severe functional disabilities and progresses dynamically over time. Since evaluations held at different time points will yield different results, finding an optimal model for PNI comparison is needed. This study aimed to create an animal model of chronic denervation that simulates the progress of nerve injury. METHODS 6 male Sprague-Dawley rats underwent complete sciatic nerve transection in their right hind limbs, with severed nerve ends secured to a nearby muscle to prevent nerve regrowth. The rats were sacrificed at 2, 3, and 4 weeks. The assessment included walking analysis (pre- and post-injury), wet muscle weight measurement, and histological examination. RESULTS Progressive gastrocnemius muscle degeneration was observed at 3 different time points. Minimal degenerative changes were noted at 2 weeks, while extensive fibrosis (83.25 [12.19]% collagen area) appeared in the 4th week. The 3rd-week samples showed lymphocyte infiltrations, muscular atrophy, and progressive fibrosis, making it the best model for chronic PNI. CONCLUSIONS A 3-week chronic denervation model is proposed as a long-term PNI for further regenerative research.

Abstract

Highlight: Stroke burden in Indonesia Challenges for Indonesian neurointerventionst ABSTRACT Introduction: Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability in Indonesia. Currently, stroke management has become more aggressive, and neurointerventionists are required to optimize acute stroke management. Objective: To determine the distribution of neurointerventionists in Indonesia and identify the obstacles faced in neurointervention services. Method: This cross-sectional study used an online questionnaire distributed to neurointerventionists in Indonesia between October and November 2024. Result: A total of 105 neurointerventionists completed the questionnaires. The distribution of neurointerventionists remains concentrated in Java, especially in Jakarta. The highest ratio of neurointerventionists to stroke cases was observed in Jakarta, while the lowest was in Lampung. West Java identified the largest gap in the number of neurointerventionists compared to Jakarta. Notably, 20.9% of neurointerventionists had not performed any neurointerventional procedures, and 46.8% reported challenges related to the funding of neurointerventional procedures through government insurance. Conclusion: Despite the increasing number of neurointerventionists in Indonesia, their distribution remains concentrated in Java. The main barrier was the funding of neurointerventional procedures through government insurance.
