Sexual behavior often begins with a kind of biological ‘dance’, courtship signals, and physical changes that get both partners ready. In males, this might mean an erection; in females, it’s a sign of ...

Timed release of therapeutic molecules from a soft nanofiber-hydrogel implant supports nerve regrowth and circuit repair after spinal injury, restoring movement and bladder control in preclinical ...

Abstract: Spinal cord injury (SCI) patients experience long-term deficits in motor and sensory functions. While brain-machine interface (BMI) has shown great promise for restoring neurological ...

Anderson Cooper: This week on 60 Minutes, we're doing a story about efforts to help people who are paralyzed with severe spinal cord injuries develop the ability to walk again. And not just walk again ...

Stanford Medicine investigators have replicated, in a lab dish, one of the most prominent human nervous pathways for sensing pain. This nerve circuit transmits sensations from the body’s skin to the ...

Boosting communication between the spinal nerves and the muscles using the spinal cord stimulation reverses spinal muscle atrophy (SMA) progression and could be applied to other motoneuron diseases, ...

"Antibody that neutralizes inhibitory factors involved in nerve regeneration leads to enhanced motor function after acute spinal cord injury." ScienceDaily. www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2024 / 12 ...

Background/Objectives: Spinal cord injuries are debilitating conditions with significant impacts on physical function and patient quality of life. The high incidence of urinary tract infections in ...

A noninvasive spinal stimulation device safely improves upper-extremity function in people with a cervical spinal cord injury (SCI), results of a prospective nonsignificant risk trial suggest. The ...

Noninvasive stimulation helped them regain upper-body function—and the device could be approved later this year. Fourteen years ago, a journalist named Melanie Reid attempted a jump on horseback and ...
