Journal ArticleDOI

Michael G. Fehlings,Alexander R. Vaccaro,Jefferson R. Wilson,Anoushka Singh,David W. Cadotte,James S. Harrop,Bizhan Aarabi,Christopher I. Shaffrey,Marcel F. Dvorak,Charles G. Fisher,Paul Arnold,Eric M. Massicotte,Stephen J. Lewis,Raja Rampersaud +13 more
TL;DR: Decompression prior to 24 hours after SCI can be performed safely and is associated with improved neurologic outcome, defined as at least a 2 grade AIS improvement at 6 months follow-up.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global prevalence and incidence of traumatic spinal cord injury
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the incidence, prevalence, and causation of SCI differs between developing and developed countries and suggests that management and preventative strategies need to be tailored to regional trends.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy: Epidemiology, Genetics, and Pathogenesis.
TL;DR: The epidemiology, pathogenesis, and genetics of conditions falling under this hypernym are carefully described and the use of the term “degenerative cervical myelopathy” (DCM) as the overarching term to describe the various degenerative conditions of the cervical spine is formally introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incidence and Prevalence of Spinal Cord Injury in Canada: A National Perspective
Vanessa K. Noonan,Matthew Fingas,Angela Farry,David Baxter,Anoushka Singh,Michael G. Fehlings,Marcel F. Dvorak +6 more
TL;DR: This study provides the first estimates of the incidence and prevalence of SCI in Canada and more population-based studies are needed, particularly for NTSCI, as an increasing number of Canadians are expected to be affected by SCI.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the validity of the identified cut-offs was evaluated by examining whether patients in different severity groups differed in terms of impairment, disability, quality of life and number of signs and symptoms.
