Experimental and Simulated EMG Responses in the Study of the Human Spinal Cord

The Usability and Efficiency Human-Computer Interface in Cervical Spinal Cord injury by Game-based Electromyography Biofeedback and EMG Biofeedback

Background and Aims: The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy and usability of human-computer interface in cervical spinal cord injury with two computer games based and EMG biofeedback. Methods: The sample size was 20 participants (healthy and spinal cervical lesions) who were selected as available. The statistical population of the study was spinal cord injury patients referred t...

OMENTAL GRAFT APPLICABILITY IN EXPERIMENTALLY INDUCED SPINAL CORD COMPRESSION IN RATS

One of the most important factors responsible for axonal degeneration following spinal cord trauma is ischemia produced by cord compression. Previous studies have revealed that omental transposition upon the injured site of the spinal cord could be beneficial in the induction of partial improvement of neuroelectrical and motor function in laboratory animals. The purpose of this study is to...

Induction of Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury in Rat Using a Device Made in Tabriz University of Medical Sciences

Abstract Backgrond:Spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to a serious neurological condition, associating with sensory and motor dysfunctions as well as urinary infections. In the experimental situations, using a valid SCI model helps to understand pathophysiological mechanisms and better ascertainment of therapeutic interventions. Because contusion type of SCI occurs commonly in human, in the pr...

Biomechanical Responses to Experimental open Spinal Cord Injury

Single joint perturbation during gait: preserved compensatory response pattern in spinal cord injured subjects.

OBJECTIVE Responses to afferent input during locomotion are organized at the spinal level but modulated by supraspinal centers. The study aim was to examine whether supraspinal influences affect the behavior of complex electromyographic (EMG) responses to single limb perturbations during walking. METHODS Subjects with motor-complete (MCSCI), motor-incomplete spinal cord injury (MISCI), and no...
