Quantifying Performance of Bipedal Standing with Multi-channel EMG [PDF]
IROS 2017, 2017Spinal cord stimulation has enabled humans with motor complete spinal cord injury (SCI) to independently stand and recover some lost autonomic function. Quantifying the quality of bipedal standing under spinal stimulation is important for spinal rehabilitation therapies and for new strategies that seek to combine spinal stimulation and rehabilitative ...

miR-NPs-RVG promote spinal cord injury repair: implications from spinal cord-derived microvascular endothelial cells [PDF]
Journal of NanobiotechnologyBackground Spinal cord injury (SCI) often leads to a loss of motor and sensory function. Axon regeneration and outgrowth are key events for functional recovery after spinal cord injury.

Effects of diet and/or exercise in enhancing spinal cord sensorimotor learning. [PDF]
, 2012Given that the spinal cord is capable of learning sensorimotor tasks and that dietary interventions can influence learning involving supraspinal centers, we asked whether the presence of omega-3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and the curry spice ...

Data-driven characterization of walking after a spinal cord injury using inertial sensors
Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2023Background An incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI) refers to remaining sensorimotor function below the injury with the possibility for the patient to regain walking abilities.

Theoretical model of external spinal cord stimulation [PDF]
Physical Biology, June 2022, 2021In this paper, a simple theoretical model of excitation of action potentials of multiple motor pools by stimulating current pulses over the lumbosacral regions of the spinal cord is presented. The present model is consistent with known experimental data.
