Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Spinal cord injury (SCI) represents a complex and challenging medical condition with profound implications for individuals and their families. This Special Issue is dedicated to advancing our understanding of SCI and improving the clinical management and rehabilitation of SCI patients. With the increasing number of SCI cases worldwide, there is a pressing need to address research gaps and to improve treatment strategies and the quality of life of those affected.

The primary aim of this Special Issue is to provide a comprehensive platform for researchers, clinicians, and rehabilitation specialists to share cutting-edge research, evidence-based practices, and innovative approaches in the field of SCI. We seek to explore current research, identify core challenges, and propose effective solutions to enhance clinical care and rehabilitation outcomes.

The scope of this Special Issue includes topics such as SCI assessment and diagnosis, novel therapeutic interventions, assistive technologies, psychosocial support, and community reintegration. By combining expertise and knowledge from across the globe, we aspire to drive advancements in SCI care and rehabilitation that will positively impact the lives of individuals with SCI.

We welcome original research, clinical studies, reviews, and case reports that contribute to the advancement of SCI management and rehabilitation. Together, we can work towards a future where individuals with SCI experience improved clinical outcomes and an enhanced quality of life.

Dr. Tsunehiko Konomi
Guest Editor
