Spinal interneurons are important facilitators and modulators of motor, sensory, and
autonomic functions in the intact CNS. This heterogeneous population of neurons is now …

In recent years, it has become clear that brief, repeated presentations of hypoxia [ie, acute
intermittent hypoxia (AIH)] can boost the efficacy of more traditional therapeutic strategies in …

Respiratory insufficiency is a leading cause of death due to drug overdose or neuromuscular
disease. We hypothesized that a stimulation paradigm using temporal interference (TI) could …

Videos of:(1) extension of the digits in response to stimulation of the plantar surface in a dog
following severe SCI;(2) 5-year-old male neutered paraplegic Dachshund showing evidence …

Intraspinal microstimulation (ISMS) using implanted electrodes can evoke locomotor
movements after spinal cord injury (SCI) but has not been explored in the context of …

Contusion-type injuries to the spinal cord are characterized by tissue loss and disruption of
spinal pathways. Midcervical spinal cord injuries impair the function of respiratory muscles …

Diaphragm pacing is a clinically useful modality providing artificial ventilatory support in
patients with ventilator dependent spinal cord injury. Since this technique is successful in …

The neural control of inspiratory muscles can be assessed in human subjects by
measurement of the behavior of populations of single motor unit from the various inspiratory …

Cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) results in permanent life-altering sensorimotor deficits,
among which impaired breathing is one of the most devastating and life-threatening. While …

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a complex and devastating condition characterized by disruption
of descending, ascending, and intrinsic spinal circuitry resulting in chronic neurologic …
