Recovery of the corticospinal tracts injured by subfalcine herniation: a diffusion tensor tractography study. Neural Regen Res . 2014;9(12):1231-1233. Contact: Meng Zhao ...

After development of diffusion tensor tractography (DTT), which is derived from diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), three-dimensional reconstruction and estimation for three motor tracts, such as the ...

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) results in severe motor function impairment, and subsequent recovery is often incomplete. Rehabilitative training is considered to promote restoration of the injured ...

Researchers at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have found a way to stimulate the growth of axons, which may spell the dawn of a new beginning on chronic SCI treatments.

Background Previous studies have suggested that hamstring strain injury leads to activation and strength deficits in hamstring muscles. However, the effects of previous hamstring strain injury on the ...

Background Recent evidence has suggested that corticospinal excitability alterations are present in the surrounding ankle musculature in individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI). However, ...

We found that microglia, immune cells in the brain, are necessary for survival of the corticospinal neurons during the developmental stage. IGF-1, secreted by microglia, turned out to be critical for ...
