Neurorehabilitation Research

KEY FINDING: Most patients showed significant electromyographic improvements in activation frequency during or after VR training.

KEY FINDING: Non-invasive central nervous system stimulation had significant effects on Lower Extremity Motor Scale (LEMS) score and gait speed when all studies were pooled together.

KEY FINDING: The FES-cycling program led to a significant increase in muscle mass of 34% after 6 months of training, which was correlated to improved cycling performance.

KEY FINDING: Patients felt a sense of safety throughout the study due to close monitoring and follow-up sessions, which reassured them about being physically active.

KEY FINDING: TPH2 KO rats exhibited a significantly higher degree of sensorimotor deficit in the tapered beam walking test (TBW) and ladder walking test (LW) compared to WT rats in the 3rd and 4th weeks after SCI.

KEY FINDING: DBS has been effective in treating SCI, with the nucleus raphe magnus (NRM) and periaqueductal gray (PAG) identified as stimulation sites.

KEY FINDING: Exercise training intensity is likely a major factor influencing locomotor function after neurologic injury, supported by multiple studies and meta-analyses.

KEY FINDING: The study found a strong association between Borg’s RPE scale and CR10, suggesting they can be used interchangeably.

KEY FINDING: iTBS-induced potentiation was reduced at post-1-week SCI lesion and had recovered by 4 weeks post-SCI lesion, except in the severe group.

KEY FINDING: Inter-brain synchronization may not exclusively depend on the precise execution of a particular movement, suggesting that self-determined engagement during gestural imitation is more informative.
