Paralysis of the upper extremity severely restricts independence and quality of life after
spinal cord injury. Regaining control of hand and arm movements is the highest treatment …

Upper extremity function is the highest priority of tetraplegics for improving quality of life. We
aim to determine the therapeutic potential of transcutaneous electrical spinal cord …

An increasing number of studies supports the view that transcutaneous electrical stimulation
of the spinal cord (TESS) promotes functional recovery in humans with spinal cord injury …

The level of sustainable excitability within lumbar spinal cord circuitries is one of the factors
determining the functional outcome of locomotor therapy after motor‐incomplete spinal cord …

Background. Epidural spinal electrical stimulation at the lumbar spinal level evokes rhythmic
muscle activation of lower-limb antagonists, attributed to the central pattern generator …

As yet, no cure exists for upper-limb paralysis resulting from the damage to motor pathways
after spinal cord injury or stroke. Recently, neural activity from the motor cortex of paralyzed …

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is one of the most debilitating injuries in the world. Complications
after SCI, such as respiratory issues, bowel/bladder incontinency, pressure ulcers …

Background Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) disrupts signaling pathways between the
brain and spinal networks below the level of injury. In cases of severe SCI, permanent loss …

A spinal cord injury can occur at any point along its length and can have a wide range of
severities and varying effects on sensory and motor function, depending largely on these …

Recovery of the upper extremity (UE) and hand function is considered the highest priority for
people with tetraplegia, because these functions closely integrate with their activities of daily …
