The aim of this study was to evaluate the characteristics of magnetic resonance diffusion
tensor imaging (DTI) in acute spinal cord following a thoracic spinal cord injury (SCI) and to …

Allicin, the main biologically active compound derived from garlic, exerts a broad spectrum
of pharmacological activities and is considered to have therapeutic potential in many …

Lithium is associated with oxidative stress and apoptosis, but the mechanism by which lithium
protects against spinal cord injury remains poorly understood. In this study, we found that …

Lithium promotes autophagy and has a neuroprotective effect on spinal cord injury (SCI);
however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Therefore, in this study, we investigated …

Spinal cord ischemia (SCI) induces a range of cellular and molecular cascades, including
activation of glutamate receptors and downstream signaling. Post-synaptic density protein 95 (…

Background: Traditionally, open reduction and internal fixation is an acceptable choice for
treating displaced glenoid articular fracture. Considering some major complications …

Background Gluteal muscle contracture (GMC) is a clinical syndrome due to multiple etiologies
in which hip movements may be severely limited. The aim of this study was to propose a …

Objective Inflammation at the level of the sensory dorsal root ganglia (DRGs) leads to robust
mechanical pain behavior and the local inflammation has direct excitatory effects on …

Background Thoracic spinal stenosis is a common vertebral degenerative disease, and
treatment remains challenging. In recent years, transforaminal endoscopic decompression has …

Cell transplantation is a potential treatment for spinal cord injury. Olfactory ensheathing
cells (OECs) play an active role in the repair of spinal cord injury as a result of the dual …
