Chondroitinase ABC Administration in Locomotion Recovery After Spinal Cord Injury: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Introduction: The present systematic review and meta-analysis aims to conduct a comprehensive and complete search of electronic resources to investigate the role of administrating Chondroitinase ABC (ChABC) in improving complications following Spinal Cord Injuries (SCI). Methods: MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Sciences databases were searched until the end of 2019. Two independent reviewe...
متن کاملTowards a Spinal Neuroprosthesis: Restoring Locomotion after Spinal Cord Injury
The overall goal of this work is to develop the core framework for an implantable neuroprosthetic device that can restore locomotion after a severe spinal cord injury (SCI) causes paralysis. Our approach to this problem relies on a combination of the biological central pattern generator (CPG) for locomotion and an artificial silicon CPG. In particular, we propose that an artificial CPG can be u...
متن کاملPowered exoskeletons for bipedal locomotion after spinal cord injury.
OBJECTIVE Powered exoskeletons promise to increase the quality of life of people with lower-body paralysis or weakened legs by assisting or restoring legged mobility while providing health benefits across multiple physiological systems. Here, a systematic review of the literature on powered exoskeletons addressed critical questions: What is the current evidence of clinical efficacy for lower-li...
متن کاملTrainer variability during step training after spinal cord injury: Implications for robotic gait-training device design.
Robotic devices are being developed to automate repetitive aspects of walking retraining after neurological injuries, in part because they might improve the consistency and quality of training. However, it is unclear how inconsistent manual training actually is or whether stepping quality depends strongly on the trainers' manual skill. The objective of this study was to quantify trainer variabi...
متن کاملRestoring voluntary control of locomotion after paralyzing spinal cord injury.
Half of human spinal cord injuries lead to chronic paralysis. Here, we introduce an electrochemical neuroprosthesis and a robotic postural interface designed to encourage supraspinally mediated movements in rats with paralyzing lesions. Despite the interruption of direct supraspinal pathways, the cortex regained the capacity to transform contextual information into task-specific commands to exe...
