Visibility graph analysis of intraspinal pressure signal predicts functional outcome in spinal cord injured patients. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
To guide management of patients with acute spinal cord injuries, we developed intraspinal pressure monitoring from the injury site. Here, we examine the complex fluctuations in the intraspinal pressure signal using network theory. We analyzed 7,097 hours
