Abstract:
Deep brain stimulation is a clinical technique for the treatment of parkinson’s disease based on the electric stimulation, through an implanted electrode, of specific basal ganglia in the brain. To identify the correct target of stimulation and to choose the optimal parameters for the stimulating signal, intraoperative microelectrodes are generally used. However, when they are replaced with the chronic macroelectrode, the effect of the stimulation is often very different. Here, we used numerical simulations to predict the stimulation of neuronal fibers induced by microelectrodes and macroelectrodes placed in different positions with respect to each other. Results indicate that comparable stimulations can be obtained if the chronic macroelectrode is correctly positioned with the same electric center of the intraoperative microelectrode. Otherwise, some groups of fibers may experience a completely different electric stimulation.

Abstract:
SUMMARYMagnetic stimulation is a way of stimulating nervous and muscular tissue with an electric field induced by a stimulation coil and is widely used in evaluation of the nervous system and in the field of exercise physiology. The focality and the deep stimulation efficiency of magnetic stimulation are affected by the coil arrangement and the shape of the stimulated object, since the induced electric field distribution is varied by these factors. In this study, we used a five‐layer head model and estimated the induced electric field distribution by calculation. The results indicate that the induced electric field distribution is mostly affected by the boundaries between tissues with different conductivities.

Abstract. Slowly varying electromagnetic fields play a key role in various applications in bio-systems and medical engineering. Examples are the electric activity of neurons on neurochips used as biosensors, the stimulating electric fields of implanted electrodes used for deep brain stimulation in patients with Morbus Parkinson and the stimulation of the auditory nerves in deaf patients, respectively. In order to simulate the neuronal activity on a chip it is necessary to couple Maxwell's and Hodgkin-Huxley's equations. First numerical results for a neuron coupling to a single electrode are presented. They show a promising qualitative agreement with the experimentally recorded signals. Further, simulations are presented on electrodes for deep brain stimulation in animal experiments where the question of electrode ageing and energy deposition in the surrounding tissue are of major interest. As a last example, electric simulations for a simple cochlea model are presented comparing the field in the skull bones for different electrode types and stimulations in different positions.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Cochlear implant technology allows for acoustic and electric stimulations to be combined across ears (bimodal) and within the same ear (electric acoustic stimulation [EAS]). Mechanisms used to integrate speech acoustics may be different between the bimodal and EAS hearing, and the configurations of hearing loss might be an important factor for the integration. Thus, differentiating the effects of different configurations of hearing loss on bimodal or EAS benefit in speech perception (differences in performance with combined acoustic and electric stimulations from a better stimulation alone) is important. Purpose Using acoustic simulation, we determined how consonant recognition was affected by different configurations of hearing loss in bimodal and EAS hearing. Research Design A mixed design was used with one between-subject variable (simulated bimodal group vs. simulated EAS group) and one within-subject variable (acoustic stimulation alone, electric stimulation alone, and combined acoustic and electric stimulations). Study Sample Twenty adult subjects (10 for each group) with normal hearing were recruited. Data Collection and Analysis Consonant perception was unilaterally or bilaterally measured in quiet. For the acoustic stimulation, four different simulations of hearing loss were created by band-pass filtering consonants with a fixed lower cutoff frequency of 100 Hz and each of the four upper cutoff frequencies of 250, 500, 750, and 1,000 Hz. For the electric stimulation, an eight-channel noise vocoder was used to generate a typical spectral mismatch by using fixed input (200–7,000 Hz) and output (1,000–7,000 Hz) frequency ranges. The effects of simulated hearing loss on consonant recognition were compared between the two groups. Results Significant bimodal and EAS benefits occurred regardless of the configurations of hearing loss and hearing technology (bimodal vs. EAS). Place information was better transmitted in EAS hearing than in bimodal hearing. Conclusion These results suggest that configurations of hearing loss are not a significant factor for integrating consonant information between acoustic and electric stimulations. The results also suggest that mechanisms used to integrate consonant information may be similar between bimodal and EAS hearing.

Abstract:
Electric stimulation of the CNS is being evaluated as a treatment modality for a variety of neurological, psychiatric, and sensory disorders. Despite considerable success in some applications, existing stimulation techniques offer little control over which cell types or neuronal substructures are activated by stimulation. The ability to more precisely control neuronal activation would likely improve the clinical outcomes associated with these applications. Here, we show that specific frequencies of sinusoidal stimulation can be used to preferentially activate certain retinal cell types: photoreceptors are activated at 5 Hz, bipolar cells at 25 Hz, and ganglion cells at 100 Hz. In addition, low-frequency stimulation (≤25 Hz) did not activate passing axons but still elicited robust synaptically mediated responses in ganglion cells; therefore, elicited neural activity is confined to within a focal region around the stimulating electrode. Our results suggest that sinusoidal stimulation provides significantly improved control over elicited neural activity relative to conventional pulsatile stimulation.

Cochlear nucleus (CN), the exclusive destination of the auditory nerve, is the gateway for all central processing of auditory information. The CN comprises three major subdivisions: anteroventral, posteroventral and dorsal (AVCN, PVCN and DCN, respectively), each of which contains anatomically and physiologically distinct neurons projecting onto different targets. This research used focal electric stimulation of small, confined parts of the CN in anesthetized guinea pigs to resolve the roles of the CN divisions, in two contexts. Part i explored the effect of stimulation on the gross neural potential (electrically evoked auditory brainstem response, EABR). In AVCN and PVCN away from the 8th nerve fibers entering the brainstem, stimulation consistently evoked waveforms comprising 3 waves, suggesting a diffuse distribution of cellular generator of the EABR. On the other hand, in vestibular structures (vestibular nerve root and Scarpa's ganglion), the characteristic waveform comprised only two waves. Stimulation of multiple neural structures, as seen with higher stimulus levels or stimulation in auditory nerve root area generally produced more complex and variable waveforms. Part 2 explored the effects of stimulation on the activation of one type of auditory reflex, medial olivocochlear (MOC) reflex. The reflex was monitored through its effects on distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE). The MOC reflex was activated bilaterally by stimulating PVCN or AVCN shell, but not AVCN core. These results suggest that there are two groups of MOC interneurons in specific parts of CN.

This work was undertaken to contribute to the development of an epi-retinal prosthesis which may someday restore vision to patients blinded by outer retinal degenerations like retinitis pigmentosa. By stimulating surviving cells in tens or hundreds of distinct regions across the retinal surface, the prosthesis might convey the visual scene in the same way that images are represented on a computer screen. The anatomical and functional arrangement of retinal neurons, however, poses a potential obstacle to the success of this approach. Stimulation of ganglion cell axons-which lie in the optic nerve fiber layer between stimulating electrodes and their intended targets, and which originate from a relatively diffuse peripheral region-would probably convey the perception of a peripheral blur, detracting from the usefulness of the imagery. Inspired by related findings in brain and peripheral nerve stimulation, experiments were performed in the isolated rabbit retina to determine if excitation thresholds for ganglion cell axons could be raised by orienting the stimulating electric field perpendicularly to the axons' path. Using a custom-designed apparatus, axon (and possibly dendrite) thresholds were measured for stimulation through a micro-fabricated array of disk electrodes each having a diameter of ten microns. The electrodes were driven singly versus a distant return (monopolar stimulation) and in pairs (bipolar stimulation) oriented along fibers (longitudinal orientation) or across fibers (transverse orientation). Transverse thresholds were measured for a range of fiber displacements between the two poles of the bipolar electrode pair, and compared in each case with the monopolar threshold for the closer pole. Transverse/ monopolar threshold ratios were near unity when one of the poles was directly over the fiber, but rose rapidly with improved centering of the bipolar pair. Longitudinal/monopolar threshold ratios were near unity over the same range of displacements. As in previous work by others, thresholds were highest for perpendicular stimulating fields. Practical application of this result will require electrode designs which minimize longitudinal fringing fields.

Abstract:
The present series of experiments was designed to assess the utility of a discrimination procedure for measuring the affective properties of rewarding brain-stimulation. If the rewarding and discriminative stimulus properties of electrical brain stimulation were related, they may share a common substrate and be affected similarly by the same pharmacological manipulations. In Experiment 1, a discrimination procedure was developed to measure the cue properties of EBS delivered to the ventral tegmental area (VTA). Rats with VTA electrodes were trained to obtain food pellets by making a discriminated operant response on one of two levers following pulses of high intensity stimulation, or on the alternate lever after low intensity pulses. Following training, the rats were given tests in which generalized responding to intermediate intensities was measured. These tests were repeated either with conditions kept constant, or with the absolute intensities of the cues delivered within a sesion increased or decreased relative to baseline. The tests with higher or lower intensity ranges were intended to mimic the conditions that might prevail if the perceived intensities of the EBS were modified by drugs. The results of this experiment indicated that generalization gradients remained stable across three tests with conditions kept constant. When higher or lower current ranges were delivered, the discriminated responses were appropriately biased towards one lever or the other, resulting in lateral shifts in the generalization gradients. These results verified that the discrimination procedure provided a stable measure of the EBS stimulus properties, and that this measure was sensitive to changes in the intensities of the cues. In Experiment 2, tests for EBS generalization and self-stimulation (ICSS) were given after injections of vehicle, d-amphetamine (1.0 mg/kg and 2.0 mg/kg) and haloperidol (.075 mg/kg and .10 mg/kg). The results indicated that these doses of amphetamine and haloperidol did not affect the EBS generalization. However, during ICSS sessions, 2.0 mg/kg amphetamine decreased threshold and increased rates for ICSS whereas .10 mg/kg haloperidol resulted in an increase in threshold. These results suggest a dissociation of the stimulus properties of EBS from the DA reward substrate. In Experiment 3, the rats were tested for generalization after injections of physostigmine (.25 mg/kg and .50 mg/kg), scopolamine (.10 mg/kg and .25 mg/kg) and vehicle. Only the high dose of physostigmine (.50 mg/kg) produced significant differences in responding in this experiment. After injection of this drug, lower intensity stimuli elicited responding on the lever appropriate for the high current intensity, indicating a possible augmentation of the stimulus property of a fixed intensity of brain stimulation. The results of this study indicate that the cue properties of VTA brain-stimulation are dissociable from EBS reward related to the activation of DA neurons. However, evidence is provided which suggests that cholinergic neurons may be involved in the mediation of the EBS cues. In as much as cholinergic neurons are also involved in the rewarding effects of VTA brain-stimulation, these results may indicate a relationship between the cue properties of VTA EBS and an acetylcholine reward system.

Abstract:
AbstractElectrical stimulation is one of the methods to stimulate skin sensation, and can provide sensations such as vibration and pressure by changing the polarity of the stimulus. These stimuli can be combined to design a variety of tactile sensations. However, there is a major problem with electrical stimulation: As the amount of electric current is increased, itching or pain sensation is elicited. This study aims to suppress the itching and pain caused by electrical stimulation, and to present strong, clear, and stable, pressure and vibration sensations. We applied an anesthetic cream containing lidocaine, which is one of the most used local anesthetics, to reduce the induced pain and itching. Therefore, we specifically examine the applicability of lidocaine toward a desirable situation, in which pain thresholds are increased and tactile thresholds are not significantly affected. The results showed a significant relationship between the application of the cream and the dynamic range of stimulating current, and subsequently the quality of experience by human participants.

Abstract:
AbstractComputational human head models have been used in studies of brain stimulation. These models have been able to provide useful information that can’t be acquired or difficult to acquire from experimental or imaging studies. However, most of these models are purely volume conductor models that overlooked the electric excitability of axons in the white matter of the brain. We hereby combined a finite element (FE) model of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) with a whole-brain tractography analysis as well as the cable theory of neuronal excitation. We have reconstructed a whole-brain tractogram with 2000 neural fibres from diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance scans and extracted the information on electrical potential from the FE ECT model of the same head. Two different electrode placements and three different white matter conductivity settings were simulated and compared. We calculated the electric field and second spatial derivatives of the electrical potential along the fibre direction, which describes the activating function for homogenous axons, and investigated sensitive regions of white matter activation. Models with anisotropic white matter conductivity yielded the most distinctive electric field and activating function distribution. Activation was most likely to appear in regions between the electrodes where the electric potential gradient is most pronounced.

Abstract:
Electrical stimulation of nerves can be elicited by a capacitor-discharge magnetic stimulator. The stimulation is painless and non-invasive. The principle of operation is that a magnetic field induces an electric current in the volume conductor of the tissue and triggers the depolarization of the nerve fibers. Magnetostimulation is a safe, convenient and simple method of stimulating the nervous system without pain but with less precision of localization than by electrostimulation with electrodes.

Abstract:
Abstract Many people are affected by a wide range of neuromuscular disorders, many of which can be improved through the use of Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) rehabilitative cycling. Recent improvements in nonlinear, Lyapunov-based FES muscle control with motor assistance in unstimulated regions of the cycle-crank rotation have led to a reduction in muscle fatigue, allowing rehabilitation time to be extended. Studies in rehabilitation have shown that the addition of coordinated movement between the upper limbs and lower limbs can have a positive effect on neural plasticity leading to faster restoration of walking in those who have some neurological disorders. In this paper, to implement coordinated motion during rehabilitation, a strongly coupled bilateral telerobotic system is developed between a hand-cycle system driven by the participant’s volitional efforts and a split-crank leg-cycle system driven by the switched application of FES with motor assistance. A variable operator is applied to the leg-cycle’s motor input during the FES stimulation regions to provide assistance as required. Lyapunov-based analysis methods are used on the combined leg and hand-cycle system to prove global exponential stability. Analysis further proves that all switched system inputs are bounded, thus the states of the telerobotic master (i.e., hand-cycle system) are bounded, therefore, the telerobotic system is stable.

Abstract:
Engineered cardiomyocytes made of human-induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) present phenotypical characteristics similar to human fetal cardiomyocytes. There are different factors that are essential for engineered cardiomyocytes to be functional, one of them being that their mechanical properties must mimic those of adult cardiomyocytes. Techniques, such as electrical stimulation, have been used to improve the extracellular matrix's alignment and organization and improve the intracellular environment. Therefore, electrical stimulation could potentially be used to enhance the mechanical properties of engineered cardiac tissue. The goal of this study is to establish the effects of electrical stimulation on the elastic modulus of engineered cardiac tissue. Nanoindentation tests were performed on engineered cardiomyocyte constructs under seven days of electrical stimulation and engineered cardiomyocyte constructs without electrical stimulation. The tests were conducted using BioSoft™ In-Situ Indenter through displacement control mode with a 50 µm conospherical diamond fluid cell probe. The Hertzian fit model was used to analyze the data and obtain the elastic modulus for each construct. This study demonstrated that electrically stimulated cardiomyocytes (6.98 ± 0.04 kPa) present higher elastic modulus than cardiomyocytes without electrical stimulation (4.96 ± 0.29 kPa) at day 7 of maturation. These results confirm that electrical stimulation improves the maturation of cardiomyocytes. Through this study, an efficient nanoindentation method is demonstrated for engineered cardiomyocyte tissues, capable of capturing the nanomechanical differences between electrically stimulated and non-electrically stimulated cardiomyocytes.

Abstract:
Electric aviation has gained momentum in the Nordic region in recent years. Given its unique geographical features and strong commitment to climate-neutral transport, the Nordic region represents an ideal testing ground for electric aviation. In five to ten years from now, electric aviation has the potential to become reality, so it is crucial to explore which factors may affect its implementation and how regional development may be impacted. The “Electric Aviation and the Effects on the Nordic Region” project presents a ten-year future scenario for electric aviation in the Nordic region. In this report, we explore future scenarios for five selected Nordic routes and identify the key driving forces behind that transformative shift, as well as the positive and negative impacts of electric aviation. The scenarios were developed through focus group discussions conducted with key stakeholders from each of the five Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden). The main findings of the study show that electric aviation is generally perceived positively in the various Nordic countries. However, there are also certain contextual differences relating to whether electric aviation is viewed as a pathway to achieving climate targets and removing emissions, stimulating regional development and accessibility of remote areas, or as a new travel option compared to conventional flights. Even though the general attitude towards electric aviation seems to be positive, scepticism and questions regarding the social acceptance of the new technology emerged, as well as the uncertainty around who will be the investors to kick-off the new technology. Furthermore, the future scenarios suggest that a high level of support from local and national governing bodies is required in order to make electric aviation a viable air transport mode in the Nordic region. The insights of this report are intended both to inform decision-makers and to provide nuanced observations from each Nordic country and explore future pathways towards a sustainable and more integrated Nordic region in line with the 2030 vision of the Nordic Council of Ministers.
