Electrical spinal cord stimulation must preserve proprioception to enable locomotion in humans with spinal cord injury

open access: yesNature Neuroscience, 2018
Epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of the spinal cord restores locomotion in animal models of spinal cord injury but is less effective in humans.

Rehabilitation of spinal cord injuries

open access: yesWorld Journal of Orthopedics, 2015
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is the injury of the spinal cord from the foramen magnum to the cauda equina which occurs as a result of compulsion, incision or contusion. The most common causes of SCI in the world are traffic accidents, gunshot injuries, knife injuries, falls and sports injuries.

Increased Incidence of Depression and Chronic Pain in Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury Patients With Pre-Injury Alcohol Use Disorder: Longitudinal Analysis of Insurance Claim Database

open access: yesNeurotrauma Reports
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) increases risk of traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) and is associated with depression, anxiety, and chronic pain. Given that these neuropsychiatric morbidities are frequently observed in SCI patients, the effects of pre-injury

Comments on "Ballistics: a primer for the surgeon" [PDF]

open access: yesInjury, 2008 Aug; 39(8): p 964-5, 2008
In response to a published assertion to the contrary, this paper briefly reviews many studies that document remote wounding effects of ballistic pressure waves including experiments in pigs and dogs that find brain injury resulting from animal models shot in the thigh and case studies in humans that document both remote brain and spinal cord injuries ...

Differences in gait analysis and clinical outcome after TightRope® or screw fixation in acute syndesmosis rupture: study protocol for a prospective randomized pilot study

open access: yesTrials, 2020
Background Ankle sprains and fractures are most common injuries in orthopedic and trauma surgery. The concurrent occurrence of syndesmosis ruptures in these injuries represents a more complex problem, as they often remain undetected.

Design, control and evaluation of a low-cost active orthosis for the gait of spinal cord injured subjects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Robotic gait training after spinal cord injury is of high priority to maximize independence and improve the living conditions of the patients. Current rehabilitation robots are expensive and heavy, and are generally found only in the clinical environment.

Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation and Motor Rehabilitation in Spinal Cord Injury: A Systematic Review

open access: yesNeurorehabilitation and Neural Repair, 2019
Background. Epidural spinal electrical stimulation at the lumbar spinal level evokes rhythmic muscle activation of lower-limb antagonists, attributed to the central pattern generator.

Anatomy of the vertebral column lymphatic network in mice [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Cranial lymphatic vessels (LVs) are involved in transport of fluids, macromolecules and CNS immune responses. Little information about spinal LVs is available, because these delicate structures are embedded within vertebral tissues and difficult to visualize using traditional histology. Here we reveal an extended vertebral column LV network using three-

Metabolic profile of injured human spinal cord determined using surface microdialysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The management of patients having traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI) would benefit from understanding and monitoring of spinal cord metabolic states. We hypothesized that the metabolism of the injured spinal cord could be visualized using Kohonen self ...
