Gait Variability to Phenotype Common Orthopedic Gait Impairments Using Wearable Sensors

Wei Zhang

Mobility impairments are a common symptom of age-related degenerative diseases. Gait features can discriminate those with mobility disorders from healthy individuals, yet phenotyping specific pathologies remains challenging. This study aims to identify if ...

Gait features for discriminating between mobility-limiting musculoskeletal disorders: Lumbar spinal stenosis and knee osteoarthritis

Wei Zhang

Background: Functional ambulation limitations are features of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) and knee osteoarthritis (OA). With numerous validated walking assessment protocols and a vast number of spatiotemporal gait parameters available from sensor-based as ...

Spatiotemporal Maps of Proprioceptive Inputs to the Cervical Spinal Cord During Three-Dimensional Reaching and Grasping

Auke Ijspeert, Marco Capogrosso, Nathan Antoine Greiner, Shravan Tata Ramalingasetty, Pierre Charles Marie Kibleur

Proprioceptive feedback is a critical component of voluntary movement planning and execution. Neuroprosthetic technologies aiming at restoring movement must interact with it to restore accurate motor control. Optimization and design of such technologies de ...

Refinements of hybrid neurophysical volume conductor models and application to study epidural electrical stimulation of the cervical spinal cord

Nathan Antoine Greiner

After spinal cord injury (SCI), the communication between the brain and spinal neural circuits below the lesion is disrupted, leading to paralysis. Epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of the lumbosacral spinal cord has been shown to restore locomotion an ...

Automatic clustering of spinal reflexes evoked by epidural electrical stimulation of the cervical spinal cord in non-human primates

Stéphanie Lacour, Grégoire Courtine, Marco Capogrosso, Jocelyne Bloch, Giuseppe Schiavone, Katie Zhi Zhuang

Epidural electrical stimulation of the spinal cord elicits motor responses by recruiting large sensory afferents in the posterior roots. Divergence of excitatory inputs provided by these fibers generates a variety of shapes, latencies and amplitudes in the ...

Regional T-1 mapping of the whole cervical spinal cord using an optimized MP2RAGE sequence

Tobias Kober

While T1 measurements present multiple challenges (robustness, acquisition time), the recently proposed MP2RAGE sequence (magnetization-prepared two rapid acquisition gradient echoes) has opened new perspectives to characterize tissue microstructure change ...

Functional imaging of rostrocaudal spinal activity during upper limb motor tasks

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Silvestro Micera, Roberto Martuzzi, Elvira Pirondini, Nawal Noëlle Kinany

The spinal cord is the main interface between the brain and the periphery. It notably plays a central role in motor control, as spinal motoneurons activate skeletal muscles involved in voluntary movements. Yet, the spinal mechanisms underlying human moveme ...

The Impact of Spinal Cord Nerve Roots and Denticulate Ligaments on Cerebrospinal Fluid Dynamics in the Cervical Spine

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics in the spinal subarachnoid space (SSS) have been thought to play an important pathophysiological role in syringomyelia, Chiari I malformation (CM), and a role in intrathecal drug delivery. Yet, the impact that fine anatom ...
