Spinal cord infarction in a young adult: What is the culprit? [PDF]

, 2021
Context: Non-traumatic spinal cord infarction in the young adult is usually associated with a single or multiple genetic mutations. There are certain gene mutations that are more commonly associated with spinal cord infarctions.

Pathophysiology of the blood-spinal cord barrier in traumatic injury : Blood-Spinal cord barrier in spinal trauma

, 2004
Trauma to the spinal cord is associated with breakdown of the blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB). However, the detailed mechanisms and the pathophysiological significance of BSCB disruption in spinal cord injury (SCI) are still unclear.

Reliability of patient-specific gait profiles with inertial measurement units during the 2-min walk test in incomplete spinal cord injury

Scientific Reports
Most established clinical walking tests assess specific aspects of movement function (velocity, endurance, etc.) but are generally unable to determine specific biomechanical or neurological deficits that limit an individual’s ability to walk.

Ulnar nerve integrity predicts 1-year outcome in cervical spinal cord injury

Neurological Research and Practice, 2019
Background Accurate predictors of neurological recovery after cervical spinal cord injury are needed. Particularly, to tailor adequate rehabilitation plans. However, objective and quantifiable predictors are sparse.

Opposite modulation of functional recovery following contusive spinal cord injury in mice with oligodendrocyte-selective deletions of Atf4 and Chop/Ddit3

Scientific Reports, 2023
The integrated stress response (ISR)-activated transcription factors ATF4 and CHOP/DDIT3 may regulate oligodendrocyte (OL) survival, tissue damage and functional impairment/recovery in white matter pathologies, including traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI)

Chronic thoracic hemisection spinal cord injury in adult rats induces a progressive decline in transmission from uninjured fibers to lumbar motoneurons [PDF]

, 2008
Although most spinal cord injuries are anatomically incomplete, only limited functional recovery has been observed in people and rats with partial lesions.

Impaired transmission in the corticospinal tract and gait disability in spinal cord injured persons [PDF]

, 2010
Rehabilitation following spinal cord injury is likely to depend on recovery of corticospinal systems. Here we investigate whether transmission in the corticospinal tract may explain foot drop (inability to dorsiflex ankle) in persons with spinal cord ...

Inhibitory postsynaptic actions of taurine, GABA and other amino acids on motoneurons of the isolated frog spinal cord [PDF]

, 1975
The actions of glycine, GABA, α-alanine, β-alanine and taurine were studied by intracellular recordings from lumbar motoneurons of the isolated spinal cord of the frog.

Spinal cord contusion

Neural Regeneration Research, 2014
Spinal cord injury is a major cause of disability with devastating neurological outcomes and limited therapeutic opportunities, even though there are thousands of publications on spinal cord injury annually. There are two major types of spinal cord injury, transaction of the spinal cord and spinal cord contusion.

The Spinal Cord

, 2009
Many hundreds of thousands suffer spinal cord injuries leading to loss of sensation and motor function in the body below the point of injury. Spinal cord research has made some significant strides towards new treatment methods, and is a focus of many ...
