Abstract:Study design: The excitability of the vestibular apparatus and pathways was studied in 10 patients with acute spinal cord injury (ASCI) and in 7 patients with chronic spinal cord injury (CHSCI). Objectives: Proprioceptive input that may be lost after spinal cord injury (SCI) is needed for integration with vestibular signals to produce proper postural control and perception of movement. This study examined whether there is a change in vestibular excitability after the disruption of the afferent proprioceptive i… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
