Cervical spinal cord injury without bony injury [PDF]

open access: yesSpinal Cord, 1977
Cervical spinal cord injury without demonstrable bony injury occurred in 141 (37%) of 384 successive neck injuries admitted to the Sheffield Spinal Injuries Unit. The condition was common in patients in the older age-groups and there were 70% of the cases who were over the age of 50 years. The commonest cause was a fall.

Effects of Impactor Size on Biomechanical Characteristics of Spinal Cord in Hemicontusion Injury Model Using Finite Element Analysis

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
A cervical hemicontusion spinal cord injury (SCI) produces forelimb deficits on the ipsilateral side of the injury while sparing the function of the limbs on the contralateral side of the injury, allowing for the evaluation of experimental therapeutics ...

Optogenetic Interrogation of Functional Synapse Formation by Corticospinal Tract Axons in the Injured Spinal Cord [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
To restore function after injury to the CNS, axons must be stimulated to extend into denervated territory and, critically, must form functional synapses with appropriate targets. We showed previously that forced overexpression of the transcription factor
