Recovery of walking after paralysis by regenerating characterized neurons to their natural target regiondoi:10.1126/science.adi6412Axon regeneration can be induced across anatomically complete spinal cord injury
The WISCI is currently used in several countries to document walking progress during rehabilitation, to assess walking func- tion in research protocols, and has currently been proposed as a measure of walking function by the European Clinical Network.25 During the course of this research, questions...
After incomplete spinal cord injuries intensive physical therapy and to some extent functional electrical stimulation [66] are the only ways to improve the functional outcome. Regular locomotor training, by walking suspended on a treadmill, can even aid a certain group of patients to regain the ...
Various rehabilitation strategies, physical therapy techniques, assistive devices, and technological advancements are continuously being explored and developed to enhance the chances of walking recovery and improve overall quality of life for individuals affected by SCI [3, 4]. Walking is a complex proces...

(1) anassistiveapproach that helps the subject to regain a certain function (e.g., walking) through compensatory means, whereas (2) arecoveryapproach aims at achieving the restoration of the neurological functions that have been lost and/or damaged by the original spinal cord trauma or disease...
Therefore, early mobilisation after surgery is strongly recommended by the Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS®) Society for most tumour entities [3, 11, 12]. In general, mobilisation of a patient includes activities such as sitting, standing and walking or passive exercises, which are ...
to burn energy. It helps improve the health of lungs and heart, as well as cut down body fat. The examples of aerobic exercises include — walking, jogging, cycling, swimming, and dancing. Such exercises are performed in low to moderate intensity continuously for an extended period of time....

improved locomotor recovery in adult mice after a moderate T9 contusive SCI7. However, the mechanism underlying recovery remains elusive. Is the extent of NT-3-induced recovery related to the preservation of lumbar MN dendrites or the degree of spared and/or sprouted descending pathways, or ...
