Electrical stimulation improved muscle function significantly at 4 weeks post-repair compared to non-stimulated controls.
Mice receiving distal and proximal electrical stimulation showed higher NMJ innervation and increased terminal Schwann cell activity.
Tetanic muscle force and grid walking tests demonstrated superior performance in groups receiving electrical stimulation.
The study highlights the synergistic effects of both distal and proximal electrical stimulation for improved nerve repair outcomes.
