The state of areflexia and muscle weakness that immediately follows a spinal cord injury
(SCI) is gradually replaced by the recovery of neuronal and network excitability, leading to …

Spinal cord injury (SCI) produces paralysis and a unique form of neurogenic disuse
osteoporosis that dramatically increases fracture risk at the distal femur and proximal tibia …

Spinal cord injuries alter motor function by disconnecting neural circuits above and below
the lesion, rendering sensory inputs a primary source of direct external drive to neuronal …

Propriospinal interneurons (INs) communicate information over short and long distances
within the spinal cord. They act to coordinate different parts of the body by linking motor …

Background Reorganization in the sensorimotor cortex accompanied by increased
excitability and enlarged body representations is a consequence of spinal cord injury (SCI) …

Locomotor training is a classic rehabilitation approach utilized with the aim of improving
sensorimotor function and walking ability in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). Recent …

Objective Age and lesion level are believed to represent outcome predictors in rehabilitation
of patients with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI). The Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL) …

In recent years, several investigators have successfully regenerated axons in animal spinal
cords without locomotor recovery. One explanation is that the animals were not trained to …

Transcutaneous spinal cord or transspinal stimulation over the thoracolumbar enlargement,
the spinal location of motoneurons innervating leg muscles, modulates neural circuits …

Objective Surface electromyography (sEMG) is a common electrophysiological assessment
used in clinical trials in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). This scoping review …
