Lateral cortical impact injury in rats: pathologic effects of varying cortical compression and impact velocity.

abstract：:Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) can cause permanent disabilities that seriously reduce quality of life. We evaluated the effects of chronic hyperglycemia before SCI on inflammatory markers and functional recovery after SCI in human patients and a rat model. In the human study, multivariate logistical regression ana...
