Systematic overviews of partnership principles and strategies identified from health research about spinal cord injury and related health conditions: A scoping review
CONCLUSION: We provided systematic overviews of principles and strategies for research partnerships. These could be used by researchers and research users who want to work in partnership to plan, conduct and/or disseminate their SCI research. The findings informed the development of the new SCI Integrated Knowledge Translation Guiding Principles (www.iktprinciples.com) and will support the implementation of these Principles within the SCI research system.PMID:35262473 | DOI:10.1080/10790268.2022.2033578

Family caregiving research: Reflecting on the past to inform the future
CONCLUSIONS: Family caregivers make an important contribution to the health and wellbeing of individuals with spinal and other neurological conditions. Ultimately, system changes, like family centered care, may be best suited to meet the complex needs of this heterogeneous group of caregivers.PMID:34779725 | DOI:10.1080/10790268.2021.1970883

Comparing preference related to comfort in torque-matched muscle contractions between two different types of functional electrical stimulation pulses in able-bodied participants
CONCLUSION: Reducing discomfort during FES may help in generating stronger and more clinically useful contractions, increasing accessibility of FES therapy to include individuals with low tolerance to FES.PMID:34779723 | DOI:10.1080/10790268.2021.1970882

Early and ultra-early surgical decompression for acute spinal cord injury: bracing for the winds of change
ConclusionThis is a call for hospital systems to swiftly restructure spinal services in order to meet the need for early, and possibly ultra-early, spinal decompression in aSCI cases in the near future.

When the Nervous System Turns Skeletal Muscles into Bones: How to Solve the Conundrum of Neurogenic Heterotopic Ossification
AbstractPurpose of ReviewNeurogenic heterotopic ossification (NHO) is the abnormal formation of extra-skeletal bones in periarticular muscles after damage to the central nervous system (CNS) such as spinal cord injury (SCI), traumatic brain injury (TBI), stroke, or cerebral anoxia. The purpose of this review is to summarize recent developments in the understanding of NHO pathophysiology and pathogenesis. Recent animal models of NHO and recent findings investigating the communication between CNS injury, tissue inflammation, and upcoming NHO therapeutics are discussed.Recent FindingsAnimal models of NHO following TBI or SCI ...

Wheelchair backs that support the spinal curves: Assessing postural and functional changes.
Conclusions: This pilot study demonstrated that a wheelchair back, which supports the seated spinal curves improves upright posture, functional reach, and wheelchair propulsion skills. Further research is necessary to demonstrate statistical findings as well as to assess back height and lateral support. PMID: 32406808 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Recommendations for evaluation of neurogenic bladder and bowel dysfunction after spinal cord injury and/or disease.
Conclusion: There is no one single measure that can be used to assess NBB dysfunction across all clinical research studies. Clinical and diagnostic tools are here recommended based on specific medical needs of the person with SCI/D. Following the CDE for SCI studies guidelines, we recommend both the SF-Qualiveen for bladder and the NBDS for bowel as relatively short measures with strong psychometrics. Other measures are also recommended. A combination of assessment tools (objective and subjective) to be used jointly across the spectrum of care seems critical to best capture changes related to NBB and develop better treatme...

Does aerobic exercise benefit persons with tetraplegia from spinal cord injury? A systematic review.
Conclusion: Evidence gathered from this systematic review of literature is inconclusive due to the lack of research focusing on those with tetraplegia. Higher power studies (level 1-3) are needed with the focus on those with tetraplegia. PMID: 32043944 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A Review on Surface Electromyography-Controlled Hand Robotic Devices Used for Rehabilitation and Assistance in Activities of Daily Living
Conclusions This article highlights the important issues about the sEMG control method and accentuates the weaknesses associated with this type of control to assist researchers in overcoming problems that impede sEMG-controlled robotic devices to be feasible and practical tools for people afflicted with hand impairment.

Vertebral Artery Dissection Following Cervical Spine Injury as a Diagnostic Challenge. Case Study.
We present the case of a spinal cord-injured patient with neurological sequelae and delayed posterior circu-la-tion stroke caused by bilateral vertebral artery dissection. The signs of cerebellar and occipital lobe ischemia were masked by manifestations of spinal cord injury. The patient was unconscious and in a serious condition, but, despite no proper stroke treatment, only residual dysarthria and upper limb ataxia were seen after reha-bilitation. Any clinical suspicion based on the combination of head or neck trauma with atypical or evolving neuro-logical symptoms should be verified for the possibility of a vertebral ar...
