Repurposing of Chemokine Antagonists for Combined Phase‐Resolved Spinal Cord Injury Treatment
Spinal cord injury (SCI) in mammals is accompanied by a massive cytokine storm in cerebrospinal fluid, mainly driven by CXCL1, IL‐6, and CCL2‐5. Sub‐acute phase is mostly associated with IL‐2, IL‐7, CCL22, and CX3CL1, whereas TNFα and IL17α permanently persists in CNS even weeks following SCI.

A Soft Pneumatic Exosuit to Assist Pronosupination in Individuals with Spinal Cord Injury
A lightweight (30 g) textile‐based pneumatic exosuit assists forearm pronosupination in individuals with cervical spinal cord injury. The soft robot enhances forearm range of motion and reduces muscle effort without hindering hand function. Tested in 10 patients during an interactive exergame, it improves motor performance and demonstrates promise for ...
