MediSpin XL high-volume industrial electrospinning platform for both medical devices and new drug delivery applications

WAALRE, The Netherlands, September 03, 2020 / B3C newswire / -- IME Medical Electrospinning, a global leader in electrospun medical devices and regenerative medicine, today announced it has successfully raised 3 million in equity financing and debt from existing shareholder TIIN Capital, new investors Borski Fund and Lumana Invest, and from Rabobank Region Eindhoven.

In 2019 IME launched the MediSpin XL production platform for large-scale industrial manufacturing of reproducible and scalable electrospun nanofiber-based scaffolds for Class I, II and III medical devices, marking a global breakthrough in the controlled large-scale production of batch-consistent, high-quality end-products in volume. To be able to manage the electrospinning control parameters unlocks its full potential for industrial medical applications.

MediSpin XL creates nanometer solutions that mimic the natural extracellular matrix in the human body. Human cells recognize and infiltrate these scaffolds, encouraging quick and efficient tissue integration, resulting in natural tissue restoration while minimizing medical complications.

The vast array of innovative applications include fully bioresorbable stents, heart valves, nanofibrous meshes and many other new devices for a.o. local drug delivery, implantables and tissue engineering.

Judith Heikoop, Managing Director of IME Medical Electrospinning, says: The additional financing and support of new shareholders Borski Fund, Lumana Invest and existing shareholder TIIN Capital will enable us to further strengthen our MediSpin XL electropinning platform and industrial production capabilities for medical devices and drug delivery applications. Combining our state of the art production platform with our broadened focus, underpins our strong belief in the strategic goal of becoming the leader in large-scale production of both medical devices and drug delivery solutions. Now we can jointly develop other breakthrough medical solutions with our pharma partners and expand our operations. The support of both our existing and new investors fills me with pride and shows that they recognize the large value-adding component of our game-changing capabilities.

DUBLIN, Sept. 2, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Global Cord Blood Banking Industry Report 2020" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This report presents the number of cord blood units stored in inventory by the largest cord blood banks worldwide and the number of cord blood units (CBUs) released by registries across the world for hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation. Although cord blood is now used to treat more than 80 different diseases, this number could substantially expand if applications related to regenerative medicine start receiving approvals in major healthcare markets worldwide.

From the early 1900s through the mid-2000s, the global cord blood banking industry expanded rapidly, with companies opening for business in all major markets worldwide. From 2005 to 2010, the market reached saturation and stabilized.

Then, from 2010 to 2020, the market began to aggressively consolidate. This has created both serious threats and unique opportunities within the industry.

Serious threats to the industry include low rates of utilization for stored cord blood, expensive cord blood transplantation procedures, difficulty educating obstetricians about cellular therapies, and an increasing trend toward industry consolidation. There are also emerging opportunities for the industry, such as accelerated regulatory pathways for cell therapies in leading healthcare markets worldwide and expanding applications for cell-based therapies. In particular, MSCs from cord tissue (and other sources) are showing intriguing promise in the treatment and management of COVID-19.

Cord Blood Industry Trends

Within recent years, new themes have been impacting the industry, including the pairing of stem cell storage services with genetic and genomic testing services, as well as reproductive health services. Cord blood banks are diversifying into new types of stem cell storage, including umbilical cord tissue storage, placental blood and tissue, amniotic fluid and tissue, and dental pulp. Cord blood banks are also investigating means of becoming integrated therapeutic companies. With hundreds of companies offering cord blood banking services worldwide, maturation of the market means that each company is fighting harder for market share.

Growing numbers of investors are also entering the marketplace, with M&A activity accelerating in the U.S. and abroad. Holding companies are emerging as a global theme, allowing for increased operational efficiency and economy of scale. Cryoholdco has established itself as the market leader within Latin America. Created in 2015, Cryoholdco is a holding company that will control nearly 270,000 stem cell units by the end of 2020. It now owns a half dozen cord blood banks, as well as a dental stem cell storage company.

Globally, networks of cord blood banks have become commonplace, with Sanpower Group establishing its dominance in Asia. Although Sanpower has been quiet about its operations, it holds 4 licenses out of only 7 issued provincial-level cord blood bank licenses in China. It has reserved over 900,000 cord blood samples in China, and its reserves amount to over 1.2 million units when Cordlife' reserves within Southeast Asian countries are included. This positions Sanpower Group and it's subsidiary Nanjing Cenbest as the world's largest cord blood banking operator not only in China and Southeast Asia but in the world.

The number of cord blood banks in Europe has dropped by more than one-third over the past ten years, from approximately 150 to under 100. The industry leaders in this market segment include FamiCord Group, who has executed a dozen M&A transactions, and Vita34, who has executed approximately a half dozen. Stemlab, the largest cord blood bank in Portugal, also executed three acquisition deals prior to being acquired by FamiCord. FamiCord is now the leading stem cell bank in Europe and one of the largest worldwide.

Cord Blood Expansion Technologies

Because cord blood utilization is largely limited to use in pediatric patients, growing investment is flowing into ex vivo cord blood expansion technologies. If successful, this technology could greatly expand the market potential for cord blood, encouraging its use within new markets, such as regenerative medicine, aging, and augmented immunity.

Key strategies being explored for this purpose include:

Currently, Gamida Cell, Nohla Therapeutics, Excellthera, and Magenta Therapeutics have ex vivo cord blood expansion products proceeding through clinical trials. Growing numbers of investors have also entered the cord blood banking marketplace, led by groups such as GI Partners, ABS Capital Partners & HLM Management, KKR & Company, Bay City Capital, GTCR, LLC, and Excalibur.

Cord Blood Banking by Region

Within the United States, most of the market share is controlled by three major players: Cord Blood Registry (CBR), Cryo-Cell, and ViaCord. CBR has been traded twice, once in 2015 to AMAG Pharmaceuticals for $700 million and again in 2018 to GI Partners for $530 million. CBR also bought Natera's Evercord Cord Blood Banking business in September 2019. In total, CBR controls over 900,000 cord blood and tissue samples, making it one of the largest cord blood banks worldwide.

In China, the government controls the industry by authorizing only one cord blood bank to operate within each province, and official government support, authorization, and permits are required. Importantly, the Chinese government announced in late 2019 that it will be issuing new licenses for the first time, expanding from the current 7 licensed regions for cord blood banking to up to 19 regions, including Beijing.

In Italy and France, it is illegal to privately store one's cord blood, which has fully eliminated the potential for a private market to exist within the region. In Ecuador, the government created the first public cord blood bank and instituted laws such that private cord blood banks cannot approach women about private cord blood banking options during the first six months of pregnancy. This created a crisis for private banks, forcing most out of business.

Recently, India's Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) restricted commercial banking of stem cells from most biological materials, including cord tissue, placenta, and dental pulp stem cells - leaving only umbilical cord blood banking as permitted and licensed within the country.

While market factors vary by geography, it is crucial to have a global understanding of the industry, because research advances, clinical trial findings, and technology advances do not know international boundaries. The cord blood market is global in nature and understanding dynamics within your region is not sufficient for making strategic, informed, and profitable decisions.

Overall, the report provides the reader with the following details and answers the following questions:

1. Number of cord blood units cryopreserved in public and private cord blood banks globally2. Number of hematopoietic stem cell transplants (HSCTs) globally using cord blood cells3. Utilization of cord blood cells in clinical trials for developing regenerative medicines4. The decline of the utilization of cord blood cells in HSC transplantations since 20055.

Global Cord Blood Banking Market 2020 with Analysis of 44 Industry Players - PRNewswire

Gene therapy generally relies on viruses, such as adeno-associated virus (AAV), to deliver genes into a cell. In case of CRISPR-based gene therapies, molecular scissors can then snip out a defective gene, add in a missing sequence or enact a temporary change in its expression, but the bodys immune response to AAV can thwart the whole endeavor.

To overcome that obstacle, researchers at the University of Pittsburgh created a system that uses CRISPR in a different way. Their system briefly suppresses genes that are related to AAV antibody production so the virus can deliver its cargo unimpeded. These results published today in Nature Cell Biology.

Many clinical trials fail because of the immune response against AAV gene therapy, said study co-senior author Samira Kiani, associate professor of pathology in Pitt's School of Medicine and member of the Pittsburgh Liver Research Center (PLRC) and McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine. And then you cant readminister the shot because people have developed immunity.

So Kiani and her long-time collaborator Mo Ebrahimkhani, associate professor of pathology at Pitt, member of PLRC and the McGowan Institute, set out to modify gene expression related to the bodys immune response to AAV. But this gene is important for normal immune function, so the researchers didnt want to shut it down forever, just tamp it down momentarily.

Since CRISPR is such a convenient system for editing the genome, the pair figured they would put it to use for altering the master switches that orchestrate genes involved in immune response.

Were hitting two birds with one stone, said Ebrahimkhani. You can use CRISPR to do your gene therapy, and you can also use CRISPR to control the immune response.

When the researchers treated mice with their CRISPR-controlled immune suppression system and then exposed them to AAV again, the animals didnt make more antibodies against the virus. These animals were more receptive to subsequent AAV-delivered gene therapy compared to controls.

Beyond gene therapy, the study also shows that CRISPR-based immune suppression can prevent or treat sepsis in mice, highlighting the potential for this tool to be broadly useful for a range of inflammatory conditions, including cytokine storm and acute respiratory distress syndrome, both of which can crop up with COVID-19, though more studies are needed to engineer safety features.

The main goal of this study was to develop CRISPR-based tools for inflammatory conditions, said study lead author Farzaneh Moghadam, a PhDstudent in Kianis lab. But when we looked at bone marrow samples, we saw that the group treated with our tool showed a lower immune response to AAV compared to the control group. That was very interesting, so we started exploring how this tool contributes to antibody formation against AAV and could potentially address safety and efficacy concerns with gene therapy trials.

Kiani co-founded SafeGen Therapeutics with the goal of bringing this technology to the clinic.

This study was supported by National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering, National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, National Institutes of Health, and a DARPA Young Faculty Award.

Additional authors on the study include graduate student Ryan LeGraw and researcher Jeremy Velazquez from Pitt.

In an August 28 special issue of the peer-reviewed online journal OBM Transplantation, stem cell biotechnology company Asymmetrex has now published a report describing how its technology for determining the specific dosage of therapeutic tissue stem cells works. The new technology is poised to revolutionize stem cell science and stem cell medicine by giving the long-needed means to quantity their essential focus, tissue stem cells.

BOSTON, Sept. 1, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ --Stem cell biotechnology company, Asymmetrex, has been counting tissue stem cells like those used for bone marrow and cord blood transplantation therapies for a few years now. Recently, the company announced the issue of patents for its first-in-kind technology both in the U.S. and the U.K. However, until last Friday, August 28, Asymmetrex had not reported in the peer-reviewed academic literature how it achieves this feat that had been pursued by many distinguished labs for more than six decades.

Now in a report published in a special issue of OBM Transplantation, a peer-review journal for transplantation medicine research, Asymmetrex completes its introduction of the new technology to the fields of stem cell science and stem cell medicine. The report is the second invited article published in a special issue focused on the "Isolation and Characterization of Adult Therapeutic Cells."

The new report describes Asymmetrex's discovery of mathematical formulas, call algorithms, that can be used to determine the number of stem cells in complex tissue cell preparations, like experimental samples or patient treatments. The stem cell counting algorithms are specific for different types of tissue stem cells. So, the algorithms defined for blood stem cells are distinct from the algorithms for liver stem cells, or lung stem cells. Once an algorithm is defined by the Asymmetrex technology, it can be used repeatedly as a simple, rapid, and inexpensive test to determine the quantity and dosage of its specific tissue stem cell type.

Asymmetrex's founder and director, James L. Sherley, M.D., Ph.D., anticipated the August publication of the new algorithms in a talk given earlier at the 6th Annual Perinatal Stem Cell Society Congress in March of this year. Then and now, he says that he believes, "Now that the tissue stem cell counting algorithms are available, everything will change" in stem cell science and medicine.

Prior to Asymmetrex's technology, there was no method for counting tissue stem cells in research, medicine, or for any other of their many uses. So, the impact of the stem cell counting algorithms in research and medicine is far-reaching. Such information is a game changer for accelerating progress in stem cell science and stem cell medicine, including improving treatments like gene therapy whose success depends on targeting tissue stem cells. There will also be tremendous gains in cell biomanufacturing, drug development, and environmental toxicology, all whose capabilities are currently limited by the lack of a facile means to quantify tissue stem cells.

To make the new counting technology readily accessible for evaluation by the greater academic, medical, and industrial stem cell communities, Asymmetrex provides free tissue stem cell counting on its company website.

New Report Begins a New Era of Stem Cell Science and Medicine: Stem Cell Biotechnology Company Asymmetrex Tells How It Counts Therapeutic Tissue Stem...

As we get older, many of our bodys processes start slowing down. For instance, a cut on the hand will take longer to heal after middle age than in youth. That said, it still heals.

Unfortunately, this isnt the case for the cells at the back of the eye, which simply dont repair much after we pass age 65. This can lead to age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the primary cause of vision loss in older adults. Over 2 million cases were reported in the U.S. in 2010, and the National Eye Institute estimates AMD will affect more than 3.5 million adults in the country by 2030.

Researchers at UC Santa Barbara have overcome a major hurdle in creating a platform to test therapies for this disease, the most common form of which currently has no treatment. The results appear in the journal PLOS ONE.

Our sharpest vision occurs at the center of the retina, in an area called the macula. This region is packed full of cones, the cells that are necessary for seeing in detail, said author Pete Coffey, a researcher at UCSBs Neuroscience Research Institute. They are the cells that are involved in reading, recognizing faces, the ability to drive, et cetera.

Just behind them is a layer of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. These are responsible for maintaining the health of our rods and cones, the eyes photo receptors. And these are the cells that stop working properly in AMD.

Age-related macular degeneration comes in two forms. Wet AMD occurs when blood vessels infiltrate the retina. There are treatments for this variety, which aim to prevent the growth of blood vessels where theyre not wanted.

However, roughly nine out of ten cases are what scientists call dry AMD, which involves progressive degeneration of the macula simply due to the inability of the RPE cells to heal. And while ophthalmologists can identify the disorders onset early on, there are currently no treatments for dry AMD.

Part of the struggle of finding a treatment option is that weve not been able to really model the progression of the disease in cell culture or in animals, said lead author Lindsay Bailey-Steinitz, a doctoral student in the Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology.

Bailey-Steinitz and her collaborators set out with two objectives in mind. The first was to understand what might be going on at the cellular level as the disease progresses. The other was to develop a model that could be used to test therapeutics.

As the RPE cells flounder in their efforts to repair themselves, a hole develops in this layer of the retina that continues to expand. Bailey-Steinitz aimed to recreate this hole in the lab. She cultured RPE cells on a plate with an electrode, then she zapped them. This created a hole very similar to the one that appears in AMD.

However, these were young cells, so they began healing and mending this hole. Thats great for the cells, but not for the team, which was trying to model the disease. So Bailey-Steinitz shocked the cells again. She found that after 10 pulses of electricity over the course of 10 days, the cells were no longer able to effectively repair the damage.

An overview of Coffey and Bailey-Steinitzs experiment.

To shed light on how the RPE cells responded to this stress, Bailey-Steinitz sequenced their RNA to figure out what proteins they were synthesizing in their damaged state. She found that some of the most important genes involved in the RPE cells function were suppressed, especially if the cells had been shocked multiple times.

The team also saw changes in gene expression that matched conditions seen in AMD. Whats more, the matrix which provides structural and biochemical support to the RPE cells also changed in ways that resembled the disease pathology.

I wasnt surprised that the RPE profile was down-regulated, Coffey said. If someone gives you a kick, then youre not going to feel well.

But, for that immunology to change and the matrix around the cells as well and to look similar to exactly that profile you see in AMD, I was very surprised.

Now that theyve recreated a similar profile in cultured cells as in the actual disease, the team is progressing to bigger holes, around six millimeters in diameter. Bailey-Steinitz is also planning a similar experiment with older cells, which show a decreased ability to heal.

If we can improve this setup, then weve got a therapeutic testbed for AMD, Coffey said.

Funding for this research came from the William K. Bowes Jr. Foundation, Garland Initiative for Vision, and the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine.

Global Bio-Banks Market : Industry Analysis and Forecast (2019-2026) By Type, Product,Application,Analysis,and Region. - Galus Australis

Theres a lot to like about growth stocks. They can provide a healthy shot in the arm to an otherwise flat portfolio. Which makes sense. When a company is growing faster than the market average, the stock price usually isnt far behind. But to really reap the benefits, high-growth stocks offer the most potential bang for the buck.

So whats the difference between a regular growth stock and a high-growth stock? The answer is maturity.

Now, there are a lot of ways to pinpoint a growth stock. The classic metric is finding one with a high price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio. But most high-growth stocks are still flying under the radar of the average investor. Thats because theyve got a lot of growing left to do.

Finding a stock that has yet to hit its growth spurt can be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Theyre not quite the talk of Wall Street yet. But theyve got all of the characteristics in place to dominate their respective industry.

Lets start with a classic. Amazon (Nasdaq: AMZN) has been considered a growth stock for most of its existence. The e-commerce giant started off by going years without turning a profit. Instead of taking the opportunity to excite investors with booming profits, CEO Jeff Bezos reinvested nearly every dime the company made back into itself.

It proved to be a fruitful move. These days, Amazon controls nearly50% of all e-commerce. And it got there by focusing on growth. In the meantime, investors that stuck with the company through its heady adolescence have been handsomely rewarded.

Amazons P/Estayed above 70 from 2019 to 2020. So investors still believe it will have high earnings growth. But beyond world domination, it cant possibly maintain the growth trajectory its already undergone.

Despite the fact that Amazon is an extremely large blue chip stock, its EPS growth expectations over the next five years sit around 30%. So its still a solid investment If you can afford to get in. Heck, even if you cant afford a full share, theres a solid case to be made for investing in Amazon.

But for our purposes, were looking for a stock thats not just in a position to outpace the greater markets But one thats positioned to blow the doors off the market average.

And one thats in a perfect position to do so is Digital Turbine (Nasdaq: APPS).

As the companys ticker suggests, this potential high-growth stock is in the mobile app business. But its positioned in a rather unique way. Digital Turbine acts as a third party that works with wireless carriers to preinstall apps on new cell phones. It then sells available slots to companies like Uber, Spotify and Amazon that want their apps on phones. And business is going well.

Digital Turbine has also developed a strategic partnership with Samsung, the largest cellphone manufacturer in the world. This arms the company with a potent ally in the world of mobile advertising. Digital Turbine also boasts an impressive 92 P/E ratio that could signal significant future growth At least until the whole cell phone fad dies out. But until that happens, Digital Turbine could be just the propellant a sluggish portfolio needs.

The second potential high-growth stock is BioLife Solutions (Nasdaq: BLFS). This companys been around for a little longer than Digital Turbine. But that just means its had more time to perfect what it does.

BioLife is a leader in the medical instrument and supply industry Thanks in no small part to some state-of-the-art developments its spearheaded.

Sorry in advance for the 10-dollar words, but BioLife develops, manufactures and supplies:

While this might not sound all that important to the average investor, these two developments are huge. This biobanking technology is used in regenerative medicine Its essential for medical research And it plays an essential, supporting role in drug and therapy development.

In other words, when theres a medical breakthrough, theres a decent chance that BioLife played a role. And in an age when nobody knows when the next disease will pop up, BioLife Solutions has positioned itself to play a vital role treating it.

BioLife also boasts strong, innovative leadership in its CEO, Michael Rice, and a high P/E ratio over 170 Making this an enticing high-growth stock.

Cybersecurity is big business. But its a pretty crowded field. Which is why a company like FireEye (Nasdaq: FEYE) can easily get looked over by investors. There are, however, plenty of reasons to give this potential high-growth stock a second look.

Year-over-year sales growth of just 6% seemingly hit a bit of a snag this year. But whats not accounted for was the companys massive (and expensive) shift to cloud-based services.

By jumping into the subscription-based model, FireEye has set itself up with a strong baseline of future revenue And it still has plenty of time to put the pedal to the metal as cybersecurity demands increase.

With a broad array of cybersecurity products for healthcare, government, financial services and personal cloud computing, FireEyes seasoned leadership is proving to be guiding the company in all of the right directions.

A company on the rise can make a huge difference in any investors portfolio. But like all investments, they come with some inherent risk. And because most high-growth stocks dont offer dividends (but there are exceptions like these dividend growth stocks) the only way to make money off them is by selling them in the future.

But thats not the only risk. When it comes to young companies, missing expectations can cause a lot more tumult both for the business and stock price than it would for a blue chip stock. So before you take the plunge on any investment, its important to first come to grips with your risk tolerance.

If you decide that high-growth stocks are right for you, we wish you good investing. If however, you dont have the stomach for it, there are plenty of other investment opportunities out there.

Neuropathy Pain Treatment Market Analysis Highlights the Impact of COVID-19 (2020-2024) |Presence of Large Patient Pool to boost the Market Growth |...

The pathophysiology of pain in neuropathy is complex and may be linked to sensory phenotypes. Quantitative sensory testing, a standardized method to evaluate sensory profiles in response to defined stimuli, assesses functional integrity of small and large nerve fiber afferents and central somatosensory pathways. It has revealed detailed insights into mechanisms of neuropathy, yet, it remains unclear if pain directly affects sensory profiles. The main objective of this study was to investigate sensory profiles in patients with various neuropathic conditions, including polyneuropathy, mononeuropathy, and lesions to the central nervous system, in relation to self-reported presence or absence of pain and pain sensitivity using the Pain Sensitivity Questionnaire.A total of 443 patients (332 painful and 111 painless) and 112 healthy participants were investigated. Overall, loss of sensation was equally prevalent in patients with and without spontaneous pain. Pain thresholds were equally lowered in both patient groups, demonstrating that hyperalgesia and allodynia is just as present in patients not reporting any pain. Remarkably, this was similar for dynamic mechanical allodynia. Hypoalgesia was more pronounced in painful polyneuropathy whereas hyperalgesia was more frequent in painful mononeuropathy (compared to painless conditions). Self-reported pain sensitivity was significantly higher in painful than in painless neuropathic conditions.Our results reveal the presence of hyperalgesia and allodynia in patients with central and peripheral lesions of the somatosensory system not reporting spontaneous pain. This shows that symptoms and signs of hypersensitivity may not necessarily coincide, and that painful and painless neuropathic conditions may mechanistically blend into one another.

More than half of women who underwent treatment for breast cancer experienced physical/functional complications involving an upper limb, according to results of a cross-sectional study published in Supportive Care in Cancer.1

Although a high incidence of posttreatment upper limb dysfunction has been previously reported in survivors of breast cancer, the aim of this study was to take a closer look at the underlying causes of this condition in women with a history of breast cancer.

Knowing what actually influences the development of upper limb dysfunction after breast cancer treatment can help healthcare professionals minimize the incidence of this complication, thus reducing the physical and functional impact of the disease and providing a better quality of life of survivors, the study authors commented.

This study involved adult women who had received breast cancer treatment between 2009 and 2016 at 1 of 2 institutions in Brazil.

Data related to sociodemographic characteristics and treatment history were collected during a patient interview and/or review of the patient medical record. The Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) questionnaire was used to assess the impact of breast cancer treatment on the upper limb.2

Regarding the selection of the DASH questionnaire, the study authors explained that most of the instruments used to assess complications include physical examination with measurement of range of motion, muscle strength, and sensory capacity, and because they are limited to physical issues, many are unable to identify the level of independence and functionality for performing daily life activities related to the upper limbs.

They further clarified that the incorporation of patient-reported outcome measures into the DASH questionnaire also allowed for assessment of patient quality of life.

Other patient assessments included evaluations for the presence of lymphedema in the upper limb, breast skin sensitivity, paresthesia, pain, and scar adherence.

Of the 233 women included in this study, the mean patient age was 56.3 years. All patients underwent surgery for breast cancer with an average of approximately 5 years between surgical treatment and assessment. Lymphadenectomy was performed in 60.2% of patients, with the remaining patients having undergone either sentinel lymph node dissection or no surgical assessment of the lymph nodes. Approximately three-quarters of patients had received chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and were overweight/obese based on body mass index (BMI).

Key study findings included some level of upper limb dysfunction and evidence for sensory intercostobrachial nerve damage in 55.4% and 47.2% of patients, respectively.

Of note, analyses based on models adjusted for age and BMI showed that only paresthesia due to intercostobrachial nerve damage was significantly associated with upper limb dysfunction in these patients (odds ratio [OR], 1.96; 95% CI, 1.06-3.60; P =.03).

In summarizing the findings from this study, the study authors stated that upper limb dysfunction is a frequent complication after breast cancer treatment and may be associated with neuropathies due to changes in the intercostobrachial nerve pathway.
