Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Journal of Spinal Cord Medicine focuses on research related to spinal cord injury (SCI). Articles cover a range of topics including the management of obesity and cardiometabolic dysfunction in veterans with SCI, the efficacy of pharmacological interventions for neuropathic pain, and the application of muscle synergy analysis to understand motor impairment. The journal also publishes studies on the use of high-dose methylprednisolone sodium succinate in acute SCI, the benefits of mindfulness-based interventions, and strategies to support leisure participation during rehabilitation. Additionally, it addresses issues such as abdominal spasms, bladder dysfunction, bowel management, and the impact of SCI on employment and quality of life. Research also explores neurophysiological testing, metabolic disturbances, and the implementation of rehabilitation techniques like heart rate variability biofeedback.
