cell therapy is known as one of the most promising curative interventions in the spinal cord injury (sci). selection of an appropriate route to transplant the stem cells is very important. principally, four different injection routes have been used in animal experiments. 1. intramedullary route: this route is known as a classic method for transplantation of stem cells. in this method, the stem ...

spinal cord injury (sci) is a destructive condition that the cord can't send signals below the level of the injury. despite advances in the medical and surgical care of sci patients, no effective treatment exists for the neurological deficits of sci. cell therapy is a new approach for sci, and preclinical models demonstrate that cell transplantation can improve some secondary events throug...

stem cell therapy can be useful for spinal cord injury (sci). induced pluripotent stem cells (ipscs) are generated by reprogramming mature, fully differentiated cells into a pluripotent state. the ability to generate pluripotent cells from adult somatic cells without the need for an embryo was a major development in stem cell biology. ipscs were established from mouse fibroblasts and demonstrat...

  Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a major clinical condition and research is commonly done to find suitable treatment options. However, there are some degrees of spontaneous recovery after SCI and gender is said to be a contributing factor in recovery, but this is controversial. This study was done to compare the effects of sexual dimorphism on spontaneous recovery after spinal cord inj...

in thoracolumbar spinal fractures with posterior column injury for applying proper management, it is important to distinguish a flexion-distraction injury (fdi) from a three column burst fracture (bf) as in clinical examination, both may have a similar significant tenderness on direct spinal palpation. careful attention to the comprehensive clinical examination and detailed imaging features are...

background & aim: spinal cord injury (sci) is one of the worst kinds of traumatic injuries with remarkable social and economic effects on communities.  methods & materials/patients: in this prospective randomized clinical trial, 122 patients with traumatic spinal cord injury were admitted to poursina hospital within 48 hours of injury to compare granulocyte colony stimulating factor (g-csf) and...
