| | These trials will test innovative treatments that could repair damage in the human spinal cord, and so restore sensation and movement. | | | Its aim is to find ways to repair spinal cord injury and to reverse the paralysis that results from it. | | | Following momentous progress in the laboratory, the next landmark is the launch of clinical trials with paralysed volunteers. |

| | The spinal cord (and therefore the series of nerves that comprise the spinal cord) travel through the spinal column, which is divided into four sections: the cervical region, or neck area; the thoracic area, or midsection of the spine; the lumbar area, or lower back, and; the sacral area, or tailbone. | | | The spinal cord has many nerve fibers that serve as the messenger system for the human body, delivering commands from the brain to different parts of the body. | | | Damage to the spinal cord can result from traumatic injury, disease, or simply from the aging process. |

| | Rat Makes A Partial Recovery Following A Spinal Cord Lesion (February 21, 2002) -- Scientists at the Netherlands Institute for Brain Research have developed an experimental therapy which enables rats with a spinal cord lesion to partially recover from their paralysis. | | | Injured adult mammal spinal cords show little spontaneous recovery after injury often leading to paralysis. | | | When grafted back into the animal, the modified cells secreted NT-3 at the site of spinal cord injury, which in turn stimulated axon regrowth and resulted in some recovery of walking ability. |

| Â | Proper Seating and Positioning for Tractor Operators Affected by Spinal Cord Injuries |
| | In order to reduce the risk of secondary injury and increase the ability to operate a tractor effectively, farmers/ranchers affected by Spinal Cord Injuries (SCI) must have the proper seating system and be properly positioned in it. | | | Following a spinal cord injury, a farmer/rancher may have abnormal muscle tones and reflexes resulting in spasticity in the lower extremities. | | | These individuals include physical and occupational therapists with advanced training in seating and positioning for individuals with spinal cord injuries. |

| | The important thing to remember is that effective treatments of traumatic spinal cord injury also will be useful for atraumatic causes of spinal cord injury. | | | Because most patients have residual axons and we know that approximately 10% of the axons in the spinal cord can support functional recovery, remyelination is likely to produce significant functional improvement in a large minority of human spinal cord injury. | | | In fact, I believe that treatments that improve the function of surviving axons will be the first effective therapies for chronic spinal cord injury in humans. |
