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 ...

Neurotropin exerts neuroprotective effects after spinal cord injury by inhibiting apoptosis and modulating cytokines

Journal of Orthopaedic Translation, 2021
Background/objective: Spinal cord injury (SCI) severely and irreversibly damages the central nervous system. Neurotropin (NTP), a nonprotein extract obtained from inflamed rabbit skin inoculated with vaccinia virus, is a drug that has been used for more ...

Effects of local hypothermia-rewarming on physiology, metabolism and inflammation of acutely injured human spinal cord. [PDF]

, 2020
In five patients with acute, severe thoracic traumatic spinal cord injuries (TSCIs), American spinal injuries association Impairment Scale (AIS) grades A-C, we induced cord hypothermia (33 °C) then rewarming (37 °C).

Spinal cord ependymomas [PDF]

Neurosurgical Focus, 1998
Ependymomas are the most frequent spinal cord tumors in adult patients. Although magnetic resonance imaging can be a highly accurate diagnostic tool, it does not always provide accurate differentiation between ependymomas and astrocytomas. This is why the authors recommend surgical resection and histological evaluation in all intraspinal cord tumors ...

Ultrasonic distance detection for a closed-loop spinal cord stimulation system [PDF]

, 1997
When stimulating the spinal cord at a constant strength, the current density in the spinal cord and thus the effects on chronic, intractable pain and vascular insufficiency will change with body position, due to the varying separation of the spinal cord ...

Combined cerebellar and bilateral cervical posterior spinal artery stroke demonstrated on MRI [PDF]

, 2003
Combined cerebellar and spinal ischemic stroke is a rare, critical condition. We report a patient with combined cerebellar and bilateral posterolateral cervical spinal cord infarction due to bilateral stenosis of the vertebral arteries. MRI is the method

Overground walking patterns after chronic incomplete spinal cord injury show distinct response patterns to unloading

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2018
Background Body weight support (BWS) is often provided to incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI) patients during rehabilitation to enable gait training before full weight-bearing is recovered.

Correlation with basic differentiation processes of neurons [PDF]

, 1991
The development of the spinal cord involves the proliferation of neurons, their migration to well-defined areas, fiber outgrowth and synapse formation. The present study was designed to correlate the spatiotemporal pattern of expression of synaptophysin,

Robotic body weight support enables safe stair negotiation in compliance with basic locomotor principles

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2019
Background After a neurological injury, mobility focused rehabilitation programs intensively train walking on treadmills or overground. However, after discharge, quite a few patients are not able to independently negotiate stairs, a real-world task with ...
