Scientists map Brain's movement signals in spinal injury patients

NCT ID NCT02451683

Summary

This research study aimed to understand how the brain sends signals to muscles after a spinal cord injury. Researchers measured brain activity and muscle responses in 120 participants (both with injuries and healthy volunteers) during reaching and grasping movements. The goal was to gather detailed information about how these signals work, which could help develop better rehabilitation strategies in the future.
