Assisting hand function after spinal cord injury with a fabric-based soft robotic glove

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2018
Spinal cord injury is a devastating condition that can dramatically impact hand motor function. Passive and active assistive devices are becoming more commonly used to enhance lost hand strength and dexterity. Soft robotics is an emerging discipline that

Pyroptosis in spinal cord injury

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
Spinal cord injury (SCI) often brings devastating consequences to patients and their families. Pathophysiologically, the primary insult causes irreversible damage to neurons and glial cells and initiates the secondary damage cascade, further leading to inflammation, ischemia, and cells death.

3D MRI Tract‐Specific Spinal Cord Lesion Pattern Improves Prediction of Distinct Neurological Recovery

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To distinguish lateralized motor‐ and sensory‐tract damage after acute spinal cord injury (SCI) and explore its predictive power for motor and sensory recovery. Methods Thirty‐five SCI patients (two female) from a multi‐center data set (placebo‐arm of the Nogo‐A‐Inhibition in SCI trial) underwent routine T2‐weighted sagittal MRI ...

SARS‐CoV‐2 Is Linked to Brain Volume Loss in Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The impact of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection on brain and spinal cord pathology in patients with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) remains unclear. We aimed to describe changes in brain lesion activity and brain and spinal cord volumes following SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.
