Validation of a Cellular Imaging-Based Method as a Potential Biomarker for SPG4 Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia. [PDF]

Ann Clin Transl Neurol
ABSTRACT Background Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP) comprises a group of rare genetic diseases characterized by length‐dependent axonal degeneration of the corticospinal tracts and dorsal columns, whose main clinical feature is spastic gait. Pathogenic variants in the SPG4 gene cause Spastic Paraplegia Type 4 (SPG4‐HSP), the most common form of HSP.

Protective effects of ceria nanoclusters against delayed paraplegia after spinal cord ischemia [PDF]

Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine
Spinal cord ischemia reperfusion injury (SCIRI) induced delayed paraplegia is a complex complication of thoracoabdominal aortic surgery. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a critical role in the pathogenesis of delayed paraplegia, suggesting that ...

Association Between Charlson Comorbidity Index and Pressure Injury Stage: A Retrospective Cohort Study. [PDF]

Int Wound J
ABSTRACT Pressure injuries (PIs) are a major clinical burden in patients with multiple comorbidities. The Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) is a validated comorbidity measure; however, its quantitative association with PI severity remains poorly characterised.

Feedback control of unsupported standing [PDF]

, 1999
This paper presents the results of continuing work on feedback control of unsupported standing in paraplegia. Our experimental setup considers a situation in which all joints above the ankle are braced, and stabilising torque at the ankle is generated by

Acute Paraplegia after General Anesthesia [PDF]

Acta Medica Iranica, 2011
Acute paraplegia is a rare but catastrophic complication of surgeries performed on aorta and corrective operations of vertebral column. Trauma to spinal cord after spinal anesthesia and ischemia of spinal cord also may lead to acute paraplegia.

Feedback control of unsupported standing in paraplegia. Part I: optimal control approach [PDF]

, 1997
This is the first of a pair of papers which describe an investigation into the feasibility of providing artificial balance to paraplegics using electrical stimulation of the paralyzed muscles. By bracing the body above the shanks, only stimulation of the
