Spinal cord trauma and the molecular point of no return [PDF]

, 2012
A mechanical trauma to the spinal cord can be followed by the development of irreversible and progressive neurodegeneration, as opposed to a temporary or partially reversible neurological damage.

Early Decompression (<8h) versus Delayed Surgical Management Improves Functional Outcome after Traumatic Cervical Spinal Cord Injury

Global Spine Journal, 2016
Introduction Traumatic cervical spinal cord injury affects the individual in a multi-faceted way. Early decompression of the spinal canal is recommended. The optimal time point for this intervention has been under debate for decades.

Single collateral reconstructions reveal distinct phases of corticospinal remodeling after spinal cord injury. [PDF]

, 2012
Injuries to the spinal cord often result in severe functional deficits that, in case of incomplete injuries, can be partially compensated by axonal remodeling.

Health promotion and cardiovascular risk reduction in people with spinal cord injury: physical activity, healthy diet and maintenance after discharge— protocol for a prospective national cohort study and a preintervention- postintervention study

BMJ Open, 2019
Introduction Spinal cord injury (SCI) predisposes those who suffer from it to physical inactivity and weight gain; consequently, death due to cardiovascular diseases is more frequent among people with SCI than in the general population.

The Human ApoE4 Variant Reduces Functional Recovery and Neuronal Sprouting After Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury in Male Mice

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating form of neurotrauma. Patients who carry one or two apolipoprotein E (ApoE)4 alleles show worse functional outcomes and longer hospital stays after SCI, but the cellular and molecular underpinnings for this ...

SponDT (Spondylodiscitis Diagnosis and Treatment): spondylodiscitis scoring system

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2019
Background Spondylodiscitis is a chameleon among infectious diseases due to the lack of specific symptoms with which it is associated. It is nevertheless a serious infection, with 7% mortality of hospitalized patients, in large part because of delayed ...
