Systematic research on the physiological and anatomical characteristics of spinal cord
interneurons along with their functional output has evolved for more than one century …

Body-weight supported locomotor training (BWST) promotes recovery of load-bearing
stepping in lower mammals, but its efficacy in individuals with a spinal cord injury (SCI) is …

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 …

Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) disrupts spinal and supraspinal pathways, and this
process is reflected in changes in surface electromyography (sEMG). sEMG is an informative …

Standing and walking require a plethora of sensorimotor interactions that occur throughout
the nervous system. Sensory afferent feedback plays a crucial role in the rhythmical muscle …

Walking, although a largely automatic process, is controlled by the cortex and the spinal
cord with corrective reflexes modulated through integration of neural signals from central …

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) can be delivered over a nerve trunk or muscle
belly and both can generate contractions through peripheral and central pathways …

Recent reports suggest that rehabilitation measures that increase physical activity of patients
can improve functional outcome after incomplete spinal cord injuries (iSCI). To investigate …

Spinal inhibition is significantly reduced after spinal cord injury (SCI) in humans. In this work,
we examined if locomotor training can improve spinal inhibition exerted at a presynaptic …

Background Electrical and magnetic trans-spinal stimulation can be used to increase the
motor output of multiple spinal segments and modulate cortico-spinal excitability. The …
