Lumbar spinal stenosis self-care strategies including regular exercise, posture changes, and adopting healthy habits can help relieve back pain caused by narrowing spaces in the spinal canal. Lumbar ...

What Are the Treatments for Spinal Stenosis? Spinal stenosis is a narrowing of the canal in your spinal column that affects mostly people age 50 and older. Nothing can cure it, but there are ...

Spinal stenosis surgery helps to reopen your spinal canal, the channel in your backbone that houses your spinal cord and other nerves. A doctor does the surgery when the space in the canal narrows ...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) causes a specific type of damage, called demyelination, to the central nervous system, including the spinal cord. MS is a neurological disease. It causes the immune system ...

Spinal bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) causes a loss of motor neurons in the spinal cord and brainstem. It mainly affects facial and swallowing muscles and the muscles in the arms and legs ...

The best treatment for spinal arthritis of the lower back depends on several factors, including the type and severity of arthritis, pain level, age, and overall health. Arthritis is a chronic disease ...

the spinal reflexogenic network activity is largely downregulated via supraspinal descending inhibitory pathways (24). During sleep, however, the descending inhibition is reduced, potentially leading ...

This coordination is generally assumed to be mediated by action potential activity in ‘premotor’ neuronal networks located in the spinal cord or in higher motor areas such as motor cortex ...

Peripheral and intraspinal feedback is required to shape and update the output of spinal networks that execute motor behavior. We report that lumbar dI2 spinal interneurons in chicks receive synaptic ...

We also show that modality selectivity — mechanical, heat and cold — can be assessed in both retrogradely labeled spinoparabrachial projection neurons and genetically labeled spinal interneurons.

Neuroprosthetic approaches have tremendous potential for the treatment of injuries to the brain and spinal cord by inducing appropriate neural activity in otherwise disordered circuits. Substantial ...
