Although spontaneous regeneration of lesioned fibres is limited in the adult central nervous
system, many people that suffer from incomplete spinal cord injuries show significant …

Advances in our understanding of movement control allow us to define more precisely the
requirements for the rehabilitation of patients with movement disorders. Most purposeful …

It is generally accepted that locomotion in mammals, including humans, is based on the
activity of neuronal circuits within the spinal cord (the central pattern generator, CPG) …

Spinal cord injury (SCI) induces incapacitating neuropathic pain in the form of allodynia—a
painful response to normally non‐noxious stimuli. Unfortunately, the underlying mechanisms …

After a spinal cord injury (SCI) of the cat or rat, neuronal centers below the level of lesion
exhibit plasticity that can be exploited by specific training paradigms. In individuals with …

Focusing on the lower extremities and spine, this extensively illustrated text presents a
problem-solving approach to the evaluation and prescription of prosthetics and orthotics in …

After spinal cord injury (SCI) of the cat or rat neuronal centres below the level of lesion
exhibit plasticity that can be exploited by specific training paradigms. In individuals with …

Central nervous system (CNS) injuries are particularly traumatic, owing to the limited
capabilities of the mammalian CNS for repair. Nevertheless, functional recovery is observed …

Basic science advances in spinal cord injury and regeneration research have led to a variety
of novel experimental therapeutics designed to promote functionally effective axonal …

Rodents are frequently used to model damage and diseases of the central nervous system
(CNS) that lead to functional deficits. Impaired locomotor function is currently evaluated by …
