Validation of qMT and CEST MRI as Biomarkers of Response to Treatment After Lumbar Spinal Cord Injury in Rats

NMR in Biomedicine, 2025 • February 6, 2025

This study validated multiparametric chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) and quantitative magnetization transfer (qMT) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) biomarkers for assessing SCI severity, ...

KEY FINDING: qMT PSR measurements reflect the myelination status of the white matter tissue. The riluzole treatment group indicated significantly higher PSR values in white matter voxels at the epicenter of injury compared to the HBC vehicle treatment group.

The Role of Desflurane in the Functional Outcomes Among Spinal Cord Injury Patients Undergoing Upper Extremity Nerve Transfer Procedures

Cureus, 2025 • February 22, 2025

This retrospective study examined the impact of volatile anesthetics (desflurane vs. sevoflurane) on functional outcomes in cervical SCI patients undergoing upper extremity nerve transfer procedures. ...

KEY FINDING: The desflurane group had greater median motor strength than the sevoflurane group towards the final follow-up when the desflurane group had median motor strength of 3 [interquartile range (IQR): 1-4] and sevoflurane group had a median motor strength of 1 (IQR: 0-2.25); p=0.014.
