Abstract
This paper proposes the Helical Limb Model, a systems-level hypothesis that repetitive rotational loading in paired-bone limb segments can alter fascial tension, interstitial pressure dynamics, and distal lymphatic transport. Rather than displacing established neuropathy etiologies, it frames impaired drainage and pressure-sensitive tissue mechanics as a potential cofactor in selected idiopathic or multifactorial neuropathic presentations.
Key findings
Lymphatic transport, fascia, and peripheral nerve vulnerability can be interpreted as a coupled mechanical-fluid system rather than isolated structures.
Paired-bone limb segments such as the forearm may create recurrent torsional environments capable of influencing distal clearance efficiency over time.
The model generates testable predictions involving lymphatic imaging, tissue stiffness, rotational biomechanics, and pressure-sensitive symptom response.

A clearance-centered model of brain aging that connects arterial stiffness, glymphatic exchange, and meningeal lymphatic drainage.
This paper argues that age-related vascular stiffening may impair the pulsatile mechanical forces that support periarterial cerebrospinal fluid exchange, glymphatic clearance, and downstream meningeal lymphatic drainage. Within this framework, amyloid accumulation is treated not solely as an initiating lesion, but as a downstream manifestation and amplifier of broader clearance failure in the aging brain.
Why chronic congestion may be a drainage failure rather than only an allergy or infection problem in ENT disease.
This white paper proposes that impaired craniofacial lymphatic drainage is a permissive condition for chronic rhinosinusitis, recurrent otitis media, allergic ENT disease, and related pediatric congestion syndromes. It reframes persistent inflammation as a failure of clearance across the nasal, sinus, nasopharyngeal, and middle-ear drainage axis, while also examining how dental and pediatric ENT interventions may compound existing drainage burden.
