Age related diffusion and tractography changes in typically developing pediatric cervical and thoracic spinal cord [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background and objective: Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and diffusion tensor tractography (DTT) are two techniques that can measure white matter integrity of the spinal cord. Recently, DTI indices have been shown to change with age.

ALS With and Without Upper Motor Neuron Signs: A Comparative Study Supporting the Gold Coast Criteria

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The Gold Coast criteria permit diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) even without upper motor neuron (UMN) signs. However, whether ALS patients with UMN signs (ALSwUMN) and those without (ALSwoUMN) share similar characteristics and prognoses remains unclear.

Different Time-Frequency Distribution Patterns of Somatosensory Evoked Potentials in Dual- and Single-Level Spinal Cord Compression

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2022
Among patients with cervical myelopathy, the most common level of stenosis at spinal cord of all ages was reported to be between cervical levels C5-6. Previous studies found that time-frequency components (TFCs) of somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs ...

Acute Hydrocephalus Following Cervical Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesJournal of Korean Neurosurgical Society, 2013
We present a case of acute hydrocephalus secondary to cervical spinal cord injury in a patient with diffuse ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL). A 75-year-old male patient visited the emergency department with tetraparesis and spinal shock.

Cervical ankylosis with acute spinal cord injury [PDF]

open access: yesSpinal Cord, 1977
Twenty-three cases of acute spinal cord injury in persons with cervical ankylosis are presented. Certain characteristics of major sub-groups are described: ankylosing spondylitis (N = 8), degenerative spondylosis (N = 9) and congenital fusion (congenital non-segmentation) (N = 6). The ankylosing spondylitic group presented a grim prognosis for survival

Spinal Cord Infarction Versus Idiopathic Transverse Myelitis: Clinical, Radiological, and Functional Insights From a Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Spinal cord infarction (SCI) is a rare but devastating myelopathy, characterized by a high disability rate and an unfavorable prognosis. It has often been underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed as idiopathic transverse myelitis (ITM). This study aimed to describe the clinical features, radiological biomarkers, treatments, and functional ...
