Defining malnutrition in persons with spinal cord injury - does the Global Criteria for Malnutrition work?
CONCLUSIONS: In this cross-sectional study, 62% of subacute SCI patients were malnourished according to the GLIM criteria. The screening tool MUST showed moderate agreement with the GLIM criteria and did not detect risk of all patients with a malnutrition diagnosis. The clinical implications of these findings need further investigation.PMID:38571922 | PMC:PMC10989229 | DOI:10.29219/fnr.v68.9989 (Source: Food and Nutrition Research)

Response to Letter to the Editor on “A single dermatome clinical prediction rule for independent walking one year after spinal cord injury.”
We wish to thank Dr. Chen for the acknowledgement on the importance of this topic and our collective efforts to address it. We sincerely hope that our work will help inform clinicians during the challenging task of predicting future function in patients following traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). While admittedly not perfect, we believe a major strength in our tool lies in its simplicity. (Source: Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation)

Impact of osteosclerosis on cervical pedicle screw insertion using preoperative CT-based navigation
ConclusionsThe screw perforation rate of Grade 2 or higher in CPS insertion using preoperative CT-based navigation was 8.0%. Since osteosclerosis was an independent factor related to CPS deviation, additional care may be required during insertion into affected vertebrae. (Source: European Spine Journal)

Urinary Tract Infection Diagnostic and Management Considerations in People with Spinal Cord Injury and Neurogenic Bladder
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common complications in people with neurogenic bladder. Prevention, diagnosis, and treatment are challenging for several reasons, including a high prevalence of asymptomatic bacteriuria and catheter use, frequent ambiguous nonlocalizing signs and symptoms, increased risk for complications and difficult-to-treat pathogens, and a lack of effective preventative methods. Current research aims to improve elicitation and evaluation of signs and symptoms, implement algorithms to avoid urine cultures in asymptomatic patients and use appropriate antibiotics for UTI, and identify novel effective p...

Mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes as new drug carrier for the treatment of spinal cord injury: A review
Chin J Traumatol. 2024 Mar 26:S1008-1275(24)00036-1. doi: 10.1016/j.cjtee.2024.03.009. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSpinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating traumatic disease seriously impairing the quality of life in patients. Expectations to allow the hopeless central nervous system to repair itself after injury are unfeasible. Developing new approaches to regenerate the central nervous system is still the priority. Exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSC-Exo) have been proven to robustly quench the inflammatory response or oxidative stress and curb neuronal apoptosis and autophagy following SCI, which are th...
