Predicting quality of life 5 years after medical discharge for traumatic spinal cord injury.
OBJECTIVES This study tested an a priori contextual model of the mediating effects of participation on the predictive relationships of functional impairment, family satisfaction, and pain to quality of life (QoL) following traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). DESIGN A longitudinal design was used to study 144 persons following discharge for traumatic SCI. Predictor variables included functiona...
متن کاملThermostabilized chondroitinase ABC Promotes Neuroprotection after Contusion Spinal Cord Injury
Background: Chondroitinase ABC (cABC), due to its loosening impact on the extracellular matrix scaffold, has been used to enhance regeneration of injured axonal tracts after spinal cord injury (SCI). However, cABC thermal instability at physiological temperature has limited its clinical application. The disaccharide trehalose has been shown to increase the stability of cABC in body temperature....

متن کاملP 94: The Systemic Inflammation after Spinal Cord Injury
Spinal cord injury (SCI) actuate to complex cellular and molecular interactions within the central nervous system in a heave to repair the initial tissue damage. The pathophysiology of acute spinal cord injury (SCI) involves primary and secondary mechanisms. Neuroinflammation is an important secondary injury process in SCI.

متن کاملNeuroanatomical substrates of functional recovery after experimental spinal cord injury: implications of basic science research for human spinal cord injury.
Human spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating condition that results in persistent motor deficits. Considerable basic and clinical research is directed at attenuating these deficits. Many basic scientists use animal models of SCI to (1) characterize lesion development, (2) determine the role of spared axons in recovery, and (3) develop therapeutic interventions based on these findings. In thi...
