Imagine the spinal cord as a bustling city of neurons. But when an injury occurs, inflammation wreaks havoc on this delicate ecosystem. One form of cell death, called pyroptosis, plays a major role in this inflammation. However, the specific genes involved in pyroptosis during spinal cord injury (SCI) have remained a mystery… until now! A […]
Just like the flickering light therapy we previously discussed, whole-body vibrotactile stimulation at a specific frequency of 40 Hz has shown promising results in mitigating pathology and improving motor function in mouse models of neurodegeneration. In this study, researchers explored the effects of this type of stimulation on the primary somatosensory cortex (SSp) and primary […]
Imagine you’re trying to predict the winner of a race, but you have two contenders with different strengths. One contender is gait speed, representing how fast they can run, while the other is the Walk ratio, measuring their step length divided by step frequency. Now, you want to know which contender is more closely related […]
