Microinstability of the hip joint is an important cause of hip pain and reduced hip function in young and active individuals. Hip microinstability is due to extraphysiologic hip motion and could be secondary to acetabular dysplasia, connective tissue disorder, macrotrauma, microtrauma, iatrogenic- and idiopathic causes. Treatment for hip microinstability is …
Approximately 5.3 million people live with a long-term disability resulting from a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and between 5-8% of those older than 60 suffer from Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia (ADRD). Consequences of these conditions can result in dramatic and persistent changes in functioning, impacting not only …
Building on recent improvements, state-of-the-art functional MRI will be applied as an advanced diagnostic tool for the lumbosacral cord in spinal cord injury (SCI) patients to characterize the remaining neuronal activity of the motor and sensory neurons. Alterations in the activity pattern will reveal the effect upon task-related spinal cord …
The development of neuropathic pain is one of the most debilitating sequels after a spinal cord injury (SCI). The overall aim of this study is to investigate potential underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of neuropathic pain after SCI. The functionality of the nociceptive pathway in humans as well as its plastic changes …
This research aims to understand the effect of the Neuro20 Functional Electrical Stimulation Suit on autonomic nervous system function, muscle performance, and gait after amputation or neurologic injury.
Embodiment is an important aspect of virtual reality because it affects how natural and engaging the experience feels and can influence performance and learning in VR-based applications, including rehabilitation \[McAnally \& Wallis, 2022\]. In VR, embodiment refers to the extent to which a person feels that a virtual body (avatar) …
This retrospective, prospective observational study aims to evaluate the epidemiology and rate of anterior cruciate ligament re- rupture after surgery in patients treated from January 2020 to December 2030 by recording both clinically and radiographically ligament reconstruction. The primary outcome is the rate of rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament …
Traumatic brain injury, a common injury in military service personnel, often leads to poor processing of speech in noisy environments. The goal of the current study is to better understand the brain basis for this difficulty and evaluate a new approach to improving speech in noise perception.
Despite a range of treatments for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), only a small proportion of patients reach full symptomatic remission. Recent developments in the field of neuroscience have been providing compelling evidence to suggest that neurobiological determinants might influence not only the emergence of PTSD, but also its resistance to …
Emergency trauma surgery patients, due to the dual stress effects of sudden trauma events (such as car accidents, falls, engineering accidents) and surgical trauma, have a significantly higher incidence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) compared to the general population. This disease, characterized by intrusive memories, avoidance behaviors, negative changes in …
