Neuropathic pain development and maintenance and its association with motor recovery after cervical spinal cord injury
CONCLUSIONS: Both at-level and below-level NeP developed and persisted relatively early in the course of traumatic SCI with incomplete motor paralysis; their severities worsened over time or remained severe since onset.PMID:38391257 | DOI:10.1080/10790268.2024.2309421 (Source: Journal of Spinal Cord Medicine)

Motor priming to enhance the effect of physical therapy in people with spinal cord injury
CONCLUSION: Priming the brain before physical therapy is feasible but may require more than 15 min. This warrants further investigation with an increased sample size.PMID:38391261 | DOI:10.1080/10790268.2024.2317011 (Source: Journal of Spinal Cord Medicine)

Antibiotic prophylaxis with urodynamic studies in spinal cord injury: Assessing practice patterns and outcomes to guide future practice in a single center
CONCLUSION: No post-UDS UTIs occurred under current local practice where most patients received a one-time dose of intramuscular gentamicin as prophylaxis. Though routine gentamicin prophylaxis may play a role in reducing UTI incidence, the low rate of post-UDS UTI in this population, including patients with positive cultures who received no antibiotics, suggests the possibility of refining practice patterns to improve antibiotic stewardship.PMID:38391262 | DOI:10.1080/10790268.2024.2311348 (Source: Journal of Spinal Cord Medicine)

Factors associated with perceived social isolation among veterans with spinal cord injury and disorders: Cross sectional survey
CONCLUSIONS: Factors such as social network size may be used to identify individuals with SCI/D at risk for PSI. Additionally, by identifying mental health problems, presence of multiple chronically occurring secondary conditions, and Veteran-identified contributors of PSI, we can target these factors in a patient-centered interventions to identify and reduce PSI.PMID:38315055 | DOI:10.1080/10790268.2023.2299500 (Source: Journal of Spinal Cord Medicine)
