The neurons that restore walking after paralysis
Nature, 2022 A spinal cord injury interrupts pathways from the brain and brainstem that project to the lumbar spinal cord, leading to paralysis. Here we show that spatiotemporal epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of the lumbar spinal cord1–3 applied during ...

Hypokalaemia and paralysis [PDF]
QJM, 2001 It is not uncommon for patients to present to the emergency room with severe weakness and a markedly low plasma potassium concentration. We attempted to identify useful clues to the diagnosis of hypokalaemic periodic paralysis (HPP), because its acute treatment aims are unique.

Quantitative analysis of diaphragm motion during fluoroscopic sniff test to assist in diagnosis of hemidiaphragm paralysis [PDF]
Radiology Case Reports, Volume 17, Issue 5, 2022, Pages 1750-1754,
ISSN 1930-0433, 2022 The current imaging gold standard for detecting paradoxical diaphragm motion and diagnosing hemidiaphragm paralysis is to perform the fluoroscopic sniff test. The images are visually examined by an experienced radiologist, and if one hemidiaphragm ascends while the other descends, then it is described as paradoxical motion, which is highly suggestive ...

Automatic Quantification of Facial Asymmetry using Facial Landmarks [PDF]
2019 IEEE Western New York Image and Signal Processing Workshop
(WNYISPW), 2021 One-sided facial paralysis causes uneven movements of facial muscles on the sides of the face. Physicians currently assess facial asymmetry in a subjective manner based on their clinical experience. This paper proposes a novel method to provide an objective and quantitative asymmetry score for frontal faces.
