Spinal cord stimulation [PDF]

Spinal Cord, 1992
Abstract Central functional stimulation (spinal cord stimulation), far from being a pragmatic technique, embodies an increasing amount of scientific theory based on clinical observation, physiological measurement and experiment, and mathematical concepts.

Mesenchymal stem cells, extracellular vesicles, and transcranial magnetic stimulation for ferroptosis after spinal cord injury

Neural Regeneration Research, 2023
Spinal cord injury is characterized by different aetiologies, complex pathogenesis, and diverse pathological changes. Current treatments are not ideal, and prognosis is generally poor.

Nerve root magnetic stimulation improves locomotor function following spinal cord injury with electrophysiological improvements and cortical synaptic reconstruction

Neural Regeneration Research, 2022
Following a spinal cord injury, there are usually a number of neural pathways that remain intact in the spinal cord. These residual nerve fibers are important, as they could be used to reconstruct the neural circuits that enable motor function. Our group

Epidural electrical stimulation effectively restores locomotion function in rats with complete spinal cord injury

Neural Regeneration Research, 2021
Epidural electrical stimulation can restore limb motor function after spinal cord injury by reactivating the surviving neural circuits. In previous epidural electrical stimulation studies, single electrode sites and continuous tetanic stimulation have ...

A flexible electrode array for determining regions of motor function activated by epidural spinal cord stimulation in rats with spinal cord injury

Neural Regeneration Research, 2022
Epidural stimulation of the spinal cord is a promising technique for the recovery of motor function after spinal cord injury. The key challenges within the reconstruction of motor function for paralyzed limbs are the precise control of sites and ...

Changes in spinal cord hemodynamics reflect modulation of spinal network with different parameters of epidural stimulation

NeuroImage, 2020
In this study functional ultrasound (fUS) imaging has been implemented to explore the local hemodynamics response induced by electrical epidural stimulation and to study real-time in vivo functional changes of the spinal cord, taking advantage of the ...

Spinal Cord Stimulation: An Update [PDF]

Neurotherapeutics, 2008
Spinal cord stimulation has been used in the treatment of many chronic pain disorders since 1967. In this update, the indications for spinal cord stimulation are reviewed with attention to recent publications. A focused review of the literature on abdominal and visceral pain syndromes is also provided.

A novel current steering method for targeted spinal cord stimulation

Frontiers in Pain Research, 2023
Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) with leads embedded in the epidural space has become a recognized and effective clinical therapy for chronic pain relief. Leads with multiple electrodes placed close to the spinal cord allow targeted stimulation.

Oscillating field stimulation promotes neurogenesis of neural stem cells through miR-124/Tal1 axis to repair spinal cord injury in rats

Neural Regeneration Research, 2023
Spinal cord injury often leads to severe motor and sensory deficits, and prognosis using the currently available therapies remains poor. Therefore, we aimed to explore a novel therapeutic approach for improving the prognosis of spinal cord injury.
