ABSTRACT Spinal cord injury (SCI), which is a severe complication of spinal fractures, often causes the dysfunction of the spinal cord and results in sensory and motor abnormalities. Current clinical treatments—includi...

Background: The rehabilitation experience can influence the transition back to home and community life. With impending National Health Insurance reform and limited rehabilitation guidelines in South Africa, there is a n...

Spinal cord injury (SCI) triggers a cascade of primary and secondary pathological events that culminate in the formation of glial and fibrotic scars, which constitute a major barrier to axonal regeneration and functional...

BackgroundHyponatremia is a prevalent electrolyte disorder in patients with acute spinal cord injury (SCI), which can significantly increase the risk of adverse complications and impair long-term prognosis. Despite its c...

Background: Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) often face numerous challenges in their communities after completing rehabilitation. This study aimed to examine the socioeconomic status and level of life satisfacti...

Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) has emerged as a major challenge to global public health due to its low recovery rate and high disability rate, making the development of novel therapeutic approaches imperative. Mese...

Background: Physiotherapy management is a necessary core aspect in spinal cord injury (SCI) rehabilitation, and undergraduate preparation for adequate application is imperative. Objectives: To determine physiotherapy s...

Abstract Background In the neurorehabilitation framework of treadmill-based robot-assisted gait training (t-RAGT), a threefold relationship among physiotherapist (Pht), patient (Pt), and the selected robotic device shoul...

IntroductionMotor imagery (MI), the mental rehearsal of movement without physical execution, is a key technique in brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), known for eliciting cortical modulations similar to those exhibited dur...

Background: Traumatic spinal cord injuries (TSCIs) represent a major global health challenge affecting survival and quality of life. In resource-limited settings, their management is complicated due to restricted healthc...

One of the most severe consequences of two wheeler accidents is the occurrence of head and spinal injuries, which often cause long term disability or even death. The cervical spine, located in the neck area, is particula...

Traumatic paraplegia, resulting from spinal cord injury, leads to severe motor dysfunction, with limited efficacy and high risks associated with conventional treatments. Brain-computer interface (BCI) has emerged as a pr...

Abstract Background Gait impairments following chronic neurological conditions, such as spinal cord injury (SCI), represent a major challenge for rehabilitation, with limited options to sustain functional recovery and pa...

ABSTRACT Exosomes serve as intercellular communication vectors and are involved in a broad range of physiological functions. Although exosome‐based therapies have demonstrated diverse functional potential, the regulato...

ABSTRACT The biportal endoscopic technique, known as unilateral biportal endoscopy (UBE), has emerged as an effective minimally invasive approach for managing various spinal disorders. This report presents the first docu...

ABSTRACT Background Thoracolumbar burst fractures with neurological deficits require decompression and stabilization. The spinous process‐splitting approach (SPSA) achieves neural decompression while preserving the pos...

BackgroundThis study investigated whether manual therapy applied to tendon organs ameliorated neuromuscular dysfunction in rats with spasticity induced by upper motor neuron injury associated with spastic cerebral palsy,...

Abstract Background Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder marked by spinal ossification that leads to progressive thoracolumbar kyphosis (TLK). We previously introduced vertebral body compression...

Neurological disorders such as post-stroke hemiplegia, spinal cord injury, and Parkinson disease represent a major global health burden. Brain-computer interface (BCI), which creates direct communication pathways between...

Abstract Background Sex/gender bias have been well-documented in clinical medicine. However, few studies have assessed sex/gender disparities specifically in major trauma care. This scoping review aims to explore sex and...
