Training of “spinal locomotion” in paraplegic patients: a promising approach? – Volker Dietz (p.38)

The present report outlines how present knowledge in motor physiology has resulted and contributed to formulation of a potentially useful improved treatment of patients with motor disorders, specifically patients with spinal cord injury.
