Early locomotor training with clonidine in spinal cats
Abstract
Clonidine, a noradrenergic alpha-2 agonist, can initiate locomotion early after spinalization in cats. Because this effect lasts 4-6 h, we have injected clonidine daily, intraperitoneally or intrathecally, and intensively trained five spinal cats to perform hindlimb walking on a treadmill starting at day 3 and continuing until 10 days posttransection. Each day, clonidine was injected to induce locomotor activity and cats were trained to walk with as much weight support as possible and at different speeds during multiple (1-5) locomotor training sessions, each lasting from 10 to 20 min, until the effects of clonidine wore off. Electromyographic (EMG) activity synchronized to video images of the hindlimbs were recorded before and after each clonidine injection. The results showed, first, a day-to-day change of the locomotor pattern induced by clonidine from the 3rd to the 11th day including an increase in the duration of the step cycle, an increase in the duration of extensor EMG activity, and an increase in total angular excursion of the hip, knee, and ankle joints. Second, after 6-11 days of this regimen, there was an emergence of a coordinated locomotor pattern with weight support of the hindquarters that was visible even before that day's clonidine injection. The results suggested that daily injection of clonidine followed by early and daily interactive locomotor training can enhance the recovery of locomotion in spinal cats.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
