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 injury leads to loss of innervation of skeletal muscle, decreased motor function,
and significantly reduced load on skeletal muscle, resulting in atrophy. Factors such as …

There is growing evidence indicating the need to combine the rehabilitation and
regenerative medicine fields to maximize functional recovery after spinal cord injury (SCI) …

Skeletal muscle atrophy is a hallmark of severe spinal cord injury (SCI) that is precipitated by
the neural insult and paralysis. Additionally, other factors may influence muscle loss …

Twenty men with spinal cord injury (SCI) were randomized into two 16-week intervention
groups receiving testosterone treatment (TT) or TT combined with resistance training (TT+ …

There is no choice other than rehabilitation as a practical medical treatment to restore
impairments or improve activities after acute treatment in people with spinal cord injury …

Diminished bone perfusion develops in response to disuse and has been proposed as a
mechanism underlying bone loss. Bone blood flow (BF) has not been investigated within the …

Background The rate and magnitude of skeletal muscle wasting after severe spinal cord
injury (SCI) exceeds most other disuse conditions. Assessing the time course of molecular …

To determine whether muscle disuse after a spinal cord injury (SCI) produces elevated
markers of cellular senescence and induces markers of the senescence‐associated …

BACKGROUND: Spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to spinal nerve fiber tract damage resulting in
functional impairments. Volumetric muscle loss (VML), a skeletal muscle volume abnormal …
