Priming locomotor training with transspinal stimulation in people with spinal cord injury: study protocol of a randomized clinical trial

Trials, 2023
Background The seemingly simple tasks of standing and walking require continuous integration of complex spinal reflex circuits between descending motor commands and ascending sensory inputs. Spinal cord injury greatly impairs standing and walking ability,

Functional magnetic resonance imaging of the human spinal cord during vibration stimulation of different dermatomes [PDF]

, 2018
Introduction: We investigated noninvasively areas of the healthy human spinal cord that become active in response to vibration stimulation of different dermatomes using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).

Impaired transmission in the corticospinal tract and gait disability in spinal cord injured persons [PDF]

, 2010
Rehabilitation following spinal cord injury is likely to depend on recovery of corticospinal systems. Here we investigate whether transmission in the corticospinal tract may explain foot drop (inability to dorsiflex ankle) in persons with spinal cord ...

Closed-Loop Spinal Cord Stimulation in Chronic Pain Management: Mechanisms, Clinical Evidence, and Emerging Perspectives

Biomedicines
Background: Chronic pain remains a major clinical challenge, which is often resistant to conventional treatments. Spinal cord stimulation has been used for decades to manage refractory pain, traditionally relying on open-loop systems with fixed-output ...

Twiddler’s syndrome in spinal cord stimulation [PDF]

Acta Neurochirurgica, 2015
The aims are to present a case series of Twiddler's syndrome in spinal cord stimulators with analysis of the possible mechanism of this syndrome and discuss how this phenomenon can be prevented.Data were collected retrospectively between 2007 and 2013 for all patients presenting with failure of spinal cord stimulators.

Responses of substantia gelatinosa neurons to putative neurotransmitters in an in vitro preparation of the adult rat spinal cord [PDF]

, 1983
Extracellular recordings were performed from neurons of the substantia gelatinosa (SG) in an in vitro preparation obtained from the spinal cord of adult rats. About 40% of neurons were spontaneously active.

Prediction of isometric forces from combined epidural spinal cord and neuromuscular electrical stimulation in the rat lower limb

Scientific Reports
Although epidural spinal cord and muscle stimulation have each been separately used for restoration of movement after spinal cord injury, their combined use has not been widely explored.

Spinal Cord Excitability and Sprint Performance Are Enhanced by Sensory Stimulation During Cycling

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Spinal cord excitability, as assessed by modulation of Hoffmann (H-) reflexes, is reduced with fatiguing isometric contractions. Furthermore, spinal cord excitability is reduced during non-fatiguing arm and leg cycling.
