There is now compelling evidence that motor imagery (MI) and actual movement share
common neural substrate. However, the question of how MI inhibits the transmission of …

Regaining motor function is of high priority to patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). A variety
of electronic devices that interface with the brain or spinal cord, which have applications in …

Chondroitinase ABC treatment promotes spinal cord plasticity. We investigated whether
chondroitinase-induced plasticity combined with physical rehabilitation promotes recovery of …

Spinal cord injury is linked to the interruption of neural pathways, which results in
irreversible neural dysfunction. Neural repair and neuroregeneration are critical goals and …

Rats have been the primary model to study the process and underlying mechanisms of
recovery after spinal cord injury. Two weeks after a severe spinal cord contusion, rats can …

Reorganization of brain function in people with CNS damage has been identified as one of
the fundamental mechanisms involved in the recovery of sensorimotor function. Spinal cord …

Locomotor training is a classic rehabilitation approach utilized with the aim of improving
sensorimotor function and walking ability in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). Recent …

Spinal cord injury (SCI) induces neuropathic pain that is refractory to treatment. Central and
peripheral immune responses to SCI play critical roles in pain development. Although …

The purpose of the current article is to provide a comprehensive overview of the literature
offering a better understanding of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) correlates in motor …

The work of recent decades has shown that the nervous system changes continually
throughout life. Activity-dependent central nervous system (CNS) plasticity has many …
