A pilot study investigating arm and leg FES-assisted cycling as an intervention for improving ambulation after Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury
DownloadSpring 2013
People with incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI) have the potential for recovering walking through plasticity-induced changes in the remaining neural circuitry. Current rehabilitation for walking attempts to induce such changes by providing relevant sensory inputs and motor commands through...

Health care systems focus on fulfilling patient expectation and needs. However, the wide differences among various health care services make the understanding and use of patient satisfaction information challenging. Patient satisfaction can systematically be studied and analyzed through methods...

Computed Tomography Perfusion (CTP) is a rapidly acquired minimally invasive mean to assess brain perfusion dynamics, collaterals and infarct growth in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). It helps differentiate expected stroke evolution and speed of core growth after arterial occlusion. The goals of...

Hyperthermia worsens outcome after ischemia. While it seems reasonable that hyperthermia would also worsen outcome after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), clinical studies attempting to find a causative relationship between hyperthermia and outcome have been inconclusive. We induced ICH with an...

Augmenting Plasticity and Recovery from Stroke by Modulating the Extracellular Matrix of the Central Nervous System
DownloadFall 2017
Recovery following stroke occurs almost entirely in the first weeks post injury. Moreover, the efficacy of rehabilitative training is limited beyond this narrow time frame. Sprouting of spared corticospinal tract axons in the spinal cord makes a significant contribution to sensorimotor recovery,...

Maintaining balance is controlled by two different processes: feedforward and feedback control. Feed-forward control is used prior to performing voluntary movements whereas feedback control is used to correct for unexpected perturbations. Studies suggested that age-related changes in postural...

Carotid atherosclerosis is responsible for 15-25% of the nearly 8 million first-ever ischemic strokes that occur each year worldwide. This proportion has remained constant over the past three decades, thus suggesting that some patients with carotid atherosclerosis currently receive suboptimal...

Chronic systemic inflammatory conditions, such as atherosclerosis, diabetes and obesity are associated with increased risk of stroke, which suggests that systemic inflammation may contribute to the development of stroke in humans. The hypothesis that systemic inflammation may induce brain...

Brainspan Learning Games: What's in it for Instructors?
2010-05-06
Background: A multiplayer learning game was developed for use in the preclinical courses at our medical school. The resource was developed from two perspectives: student and instructor. Students use the game to review course concepts and to test themselves for exam preparation. Instructors have...
