The contribution of bio-psycho-social dimensions on sexual satisfaction in people with spinal cord injury and their partners: an explorative study.

Study Design: Cross-sectional explorative observational study.

Title: Sexual satisfaction in people with spinal cord injury and their partners: an explorative study.

Objective: To investigate the determinants of sexual satisfaction among individuals with spinal cord injury and relative partners by assuming a bio-psycho-social perspective.

Differences between males and females with spinal cord injury in the experience of subliminal and explicit sexual pictures.

Study Design: Observational cross-sectional study.

Objectives: To determine the differences between persons with spinal cord injury (SCI) and control individuals in terms of conscious and unconscious sexual responses to subliminally presented visual sexual stimuli.

Setting: Spinal cord injury rehabilitation center in northern Italy.

Experimental Protocol to Assess Neuromuscular Plasticity Induced by an Exoskeleton Training Session.

Exoskeleton gait rehabilitation is an emerging area of research, with potential applications in the elderly and in people with central nervous system lesions, e.g., stroke, traumatic brain/spinal cord injury.

Developing an instrument for an early prediction model of long-term functional outcomes in people with acquired injuries of the central nervous system: protocol and methodological aspects.

Severe acquired brain injury (ABI) is a major cause of long-term disability and is the main determinant of health and societal costs. Early identification of favourable long-term recovery would allow personalized rehabilitative programs and better health care resources allocation. In light of the higher survival rate from intensive care units (ICU) in recent years, there is a growing need for early prognostication markers of functional recovery; to date, these data have been mainly collected at rehabilitation unit admission and not during the acute phase.

Complications of epidural spinal stimulation: lessons from the past and alternatives for the future.

Study Design: Systematic review.

Objectives: Over the past decade, an increasing number of studies have demonstrated that epidural spinal cord stimulation (SCS) can successfully assist with neurorehabilitation following spinal cord injury (SCI). This approach is quickly garnering the attention of clinicians.
