Advances in tissue engineering offer hope for spinal cord injury repair, utilizing biomaterials, stem cells, and bioactive molecules to promote regeneration.

Neural foraminal stenosis is a common condition that can cause symptoms referred to as a pinched nerve. The neural foramen (spinal foramen) are small holes on the sides of the backbone that are ...

Nearly 10% of adults will experience some form of severe neck pain in any given calendar year. Most cases of neck pain have multiple causes, such as inflamed (swollen) muscles, ligaments, joints or ...

Methods: To evaluate the biomechanical effects resulting from different decompression techniques, we developed a lumbar spine model using forward dynamic-based multibody simulation (FD_MBS).

This can probably be attributed to the anatomical characteristics of the C5 ... these two manipulations on the cervical disc, facet joint, nerve roots and spinal cord. Future studies will model ...

The new tool will provide a better understanding of the female anatomy and help to prevent women getting incorrectly diagnosed. It is currently being used to teach first year medical students at ...

Here, we present evidence for the anatomy of SS, ILF, VOF, tapetum, stratum calcarinum and dOB as distinct units of white matter architecture in the vervet visual system. We present further evidence ...

Muscles are activated by nerve cells called motor neurons found in the spinal cord. The connections between the motor neurons and muscles are established in the developing embryo. Each motor neuron ...
