Research Article: A Silver Lining of Neuropathic Pain: Predicting Favorable Functional Outcome in Spinal Cord Injury
Abstract:
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a debilitating condition which often leads to long-term or permanent mobility disability, chronic risk of various complications, and requires extensive medical resources., An epidemiology study showed that the overall global incidence of SCI was . cases per , persons. Although mobility is the most critical factor determining functional outcome, additional sequelae such as neuropathic pain (NP), bladder and rectum dysfunctions also decrease quality of life considerably.,
