- Three Patients With Complete Spinal Cord Injury Walk Again After Spinal Implant. The patients, who had motor scores of 0 on all key leg muscles, were able to use a walker within a day. The system uses models to create paddle implants that precisely target dorsal nerves to restore movement. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-021-01663-5#Sec14 12 comments upliftingnews
