Older age may be associated with poorer functional outcomes after spinal cord injury, but does not seem to affect neurologic recovery.

In recent years, researchers have made measurable progress, using animal models, to promote tissue regeneration in spinal cord injuries (SCI) through implanted neural stem cells or grafts. Other ...

Older age was linked to a significant reduction in functional recovery from baseline to 1 year after spinal cord injury (SCI), particularly in those older than 70 years; however, neurologic recovery ...

Injury, bed rest, rehabilitation length linked to functional ability in patients with spinal cord injury This study describes the rehabilitation length and functional outcome in the Netherlands for ...

All participants undergo a baseline assessment on day 1; in the EES+PT group, an epidural electrode is implanted on day 2, stimulation programs are initiated on postoperative day 1 and iteratively ...
