There are over 15 million people living with spinal cord injury (SCI) worldwide. Experimental treatments using electrical stimulation through the skin may help some patients regain movement, but ...
Electrical injuries and burns represent a significant clinical challenge, encompassing a spectrum of trauma that ranges from superficial skin damage to deep tissue necrosis and systemic complications.
Scientists show that specifying the timing pattern of neurostimulation -- impulses used to activate the brain's own electrical signaling mechanisms -- can rebalance the strength of synaptic ...
Bottom line: This study found that, in rats, acute nerve injuries that may recover can be distinguished from those that are unlikely to recover based on the response to intraoperative electrical nerve ...
