A case of cervicomedullary junction compression

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Critical Care, 2017
The C-V junction is a transition site between mobile cranium and relatively rigid spinal column. It is also the site of the medullo-spinal junction. CV anomalies are defects of development, not necessarily congenital and may not manifest at birth.

Quantifying Performance of Bipedal Standing with Multi-channel EMG [PDF]

open access: yesIROS 2017, 2017
Spinal 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 ...

Spinal-cord compression in myeloma. [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 1979
Clinical records of 47 patients in whom spinal-cord compression was the presenting feature of plasma-cell myeloma were analysed retrospectively. Patients were referred during 1954-78. Median survival was 30 months and prognosis was best for those in whom the site of cord compression was the thoracic region.

Genetics‐Based Targeting Strategies for Precise Neuromodulation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this Review, the fundamental principles and implementation protocols of genetics‐based precision neuromodulation are first introduced. Then, wireless and low‐invasive strategies based on nano‐transducing materials are highlighted, along with a dissection and analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of representative studies.

The neuroprotective effect of alcoholic and aqueous extracts of Achillea biebersteinii leaves on spinal motoneurons denegation after sciatic nerve compression in rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background and aims: Neurons are injured under physical, chemical and pathological conditions. The effect of peripheral nervous system injuries may return as retrograde to the cell body of neurons in central nervous system resulting in brain and spinal ...

Enhancing Grasping Function with a Thermoresponsive Ionogel Adhesive Glove for Patients with Rheumatic Diseases

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a novel portable grasp‐assist glove, weighing only 47 g. The glove integrates smart adhesive pads and a hands‐free control interface based on IMU, designed to aid rheumatic patients with impaired hand function. The system enables switchable adhesion with independent control and detection of user release intent.
