Spasticity and bone density after a spinal cord injury.
30 Oct 2009 
STUDY DESIGN: Descriptive, cross-sectional study. OBJECTIVE: To assess the relationship between spasticity and bone mineral density in the lower extremities in individuals with a motor complete spinal cord injury. METHODS: Eighteen individuals, ... Read more...
27 Oct 2009 Despite advances in promoting axonal regeneration after acute spinal cord injury (SCI), elicitation of bridging axon regeneration after chronic SCI remains a formidable challenge. We report that combinatorial therapies administered 6 weeks, and as ... Read more...
29 Sep 2009 Measuring in vivo spinal cord injury and repair remains elusive. Using magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) we examined brainstem N-acetyl-aspartate (NAA) as a surrogate for spinal cord injury in two mouse strains with different reparative ... Read more...
