Deterioration of cystometric parameters following the artificial urinary sphincter procedure in patients with spinal cord lesion: a retrospective analysis.

Purpose: The artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) remains the gold standard to treat stress urinary incontinence related to sphincter insufficiency in patients with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD). This study aims to assess the incidence of de novo neurogenic detrusor overactivity or low bladder compliance after AUS implantation in adult spinal cord injured patients.

Methods: Retrospective observational study, descriptive by analysis of the medical records of patients followed in a department of Neuro-Urology from January 01, 2003 to March 31, 2023.

Neural basis of lower-limb visual feedback therapy: an EEG study in healthy subjects.

Background: Video-feedback observational therapy (VOT) is an intensive rehabilitation technique based on movement repetition and visualization that has shown benefits for motor rehabilitation of the upper and lower limbs. Despite an increase in recent literature on the neurophysiological effects of VOT in the upper limb, there is little knowledge about the cortical effects of visual feedback therapies when applied to the lower limbs. The aim of our study was to better understand the neurophysiological effects of VOT.

Relation between Cortical Activation and Effort during Robot-Mediated Walking in Healthy People: A Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Neuroimaging Study (fNIRS).

Force and effort are important components of a motor task that can impact rehabilitation effectiveness. However, few studies have evaluated the impact of these factors on cortical activation during gait. The purpose of the study was to investigate the relation between cortical activation and effort required during exoskeleton-mediated gait at different levels of physical assistance in healthy individuals.
