Targeted Perfusion Therapy in Spinal Cord Trauma. [PDF]

, 2020
We review state-of-the-art monitoring techniques for acute, severe traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI) to facilitate targeted perfusion of the injured cord rather than applying universal mean arterial pressure targets.

Ang-(1–7)/MasR axis promotes functional recovery after spinal cord injury by regulating microglia/macrophage polarization

Cell & Bioscience, 2023
Background Inflammatory response is an essential part of secondary injury after spinal cord injury (SCI). During this period, the injury may be exacerbated through the release of a large number of inflammatory factors and the polarization of infiltrating

Goal attainment in mobility after acute rehabilitation of mobility-restricting paralysis syndromes with regard to the ambulatory therapeutic level of participation NeuroMoves

BMC Neurology, 2021
Background A central goal of rehabilitation in patients with paralysis syndromes after stroke or spinal cord injury (SCI) is to restore independent mobility as a pedestrian or wheelchair user.

Theoretical model of external spinal cord stimulation [PDF]

Physical Biology, June 2022, 2021
In 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.

Spinal Cord Stimulation

Definitions, 2020
A highly invasive form of electroanalgesia used to treat various chronic pain syndromes, which resist treatment by more common means. It is also used to treat peripheral ischemia, peripheral vascular disease, complex regional pain syndrome, intractable ...

Delayed lumbar plexus palsy due to giant psoas hematoma associated with vertebral compression fracture and direct oral anticoagulants: a case report

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2021
Background Osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) are commonly observed in elderly people and can be treated by conservatively with minimal risk of complications in most cases.

Neonatal microglia-organized scar-free spinal cord repair

Nature, 2020
It is thought that spinal cord injury triggers scar formation with little axon regeneration in mammals1–4. Here we report that in neonatal mice, a crush injury to the spinal cord leads to a scar-free healing that permits the growth of long projecting ...

Effects of gabapentin on muscle spasticity and both induced as well as spontaneous autonomic dysreflexia after complete spinal cord injury

Frontiers in Physiology, 2012
We recently reported that the neuropathic pain medication, gabapentin (GBP; Neurontin), significantly attenuated both noxious colorectal distension (CRD)-induced autonomic dysreflexia (AD) and tail pinch-induced spasticity compared to saline-treated ...

Theoretical possibilities of head transplant [PDF]

, 2022
Recently, Zielinski and Sokal [ Zielinski, P., Sokal, P. (2016). Full spinal cord regeneration after total transection is not possible due to entropy change. Medical Hypotheses, 94, 63-65] proposed one hypothesis by considering three assumptions against the spinal cord regeneration after total transection.
