Background
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot that forms in the deep veins and is the third most common cardiovascular disease today. One of the causes of DVT is venous stasis. Current methods of DVT prevention include anticoagulants and mechanical prophylaxis. Anticoagulant use is contraindicated in individuals with bleeding risks and mechanical interventions are often cumbersome and uncomfortable.

Objective
The overall goal of this project is to investigate a novel method for DVT prevention, termed intermittent electrical stimulation (IES). The current study investigated the effects of IES on healthy typical as well as post-stroke persons.

Method
Of the 32 participants, 22 were healthy subjects from Edmonton, and 10 were inpatient post-stroke subjects at the Glenrose Rehabilitation Hospital, Edmonton. A two-channel stimulator was used to administer IES through electrodes placed on the posterior and anterior sides of the leg and was applied in increasing stimulation amplitudes to the gastrocnemius muscle and the resulting plantar flexion force and changes in popliteal and femoral venous velocities were recorded for each stimulation respectively using B-mode ultrasound.

Results
IES-induced contractions produced significant increases in venous flow compared to baseline. Small contractions induced by comfortable levels of stimulation in typical and in post-stroke persons were sufficient to increase flow in the popliteal and femoral veins.

Conclusion
The results indicate that IES can sufficiently increase venous flow to prevent venous stasis and is comfortable for end users. Incorporation of IES into a clinical device could provide a feasible and effective alternative for DVT prophylaxis.

Background
Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in physical impairments and psychosocial issues that generate challenges to individuals, families, and society. Understanding the acute care hospital experience after SCI is important as it may have an impact on persons with spinal cord injuries’ (PWSCI) subsequent journey to the rehabilitation center and community. This experience has not been studied in Nepal, especially from the perspective of PWSCI.

Objectives
To understand how PWSCI (1) are involved in decision-making for their care; (2) are educated about secondary complications and, (3) perceive overall positive and negative experiences regarding their care during their acute care hospital stay in Nepal.

Methods
Qualitative study based on Van Manen’s phenomenology using purposive sampling at the Spinal Injury Rehabilitation Center, the only dedicated SCI center in Nepal. We interviewed participants (n=24) who were referred from nine different acute hospitals using a semi-structured interview guide co-developed with SCI experts and PWSCI. Using thematic analysis, we extracted the findings with Manen’s approach.

Results
We identified three preliminary themes: (1) Families, but not PWSCI, are often included in the decision-making process; (2) For education on secondary complications, only pressure injury prevention was recalled; (3) Timeliness of spinal surgery was a concern.

Conclusion
There are opportunities to improve the acute care experience for PWSCI in Nepal. PWSCI desired to be more engaged in the decision-making process and more involved in their own care. Concerns regarding the timeliness of surgery correlated with the findings of previous Nepali studies.

Background/objective
Exoskeletons are promising tools for motor rehabilitation in spinal cord injury/disease (SCI/D); however, optimal therapeutic dose parameters are unknown. This study aimed to identify the dose and dosage of exoskeleton training for functional gait restoration in individuals with SCI/D.

Design/Methods
A systematic review (inception-03/31/2022) included CINAHL Complete Embase, Emcare Nursing, MedLine and Web of Science databases. Studies with ≥ 5 adults (≥16 years, any level/nature) who underwent exoskeleton-based overground gait rehabilitation and reporting 3 of 4 dose (e.g., session duration and number of sessions) and dosage (e.g., frequency of sessions, intervention duration) parameters, and at least one gait outcome measure were included.

Results
Of 977 studies, 964 were excluded. With 19 studies remaining, 13 included functional restoration as their therapeutic intent. Of those, 11 reported statistically significant changes and were considered for recommendation. The functional restoration ranged from 10 to 51.5 sessions, 2 to 5 sessions a week, for 3 to 12 weeks, with a duration of 45-90-minutes per session. Altogether, the data suggest that exoskeleton-based functional gait restoration would be best achieved using protocols that encompass 60-minute sessions, 3 times a week, for over 8 weeks (total of 24 sessions).

Conclusions
Despite the high variability of dose and dosage parameters reported, significant improvements in functional performance were associated with overground exoskeleton use in most studies. The lack of therapeutic standards, however, compromises translation to clinical settings. This review provides evidence-based clinical practice recommendations for functional restoration in individuals with SCI/D to inform future functional restoration training paradigms.

Background
Individuals with a neurologic level of injury (NLI) C1-T10 have an UMN bowel and propensity for external anal sphincter spasm and need chemical/mechanical stimuli to evacuate their bowels versus those with an NLI T11-S5 and LMN bowel whom have a patulous sphincter and complete manual bowel disimpaction. We describe the associations between independence in sphincter control for 5 years following discharge among individuals with traumatic SCI (tSCI).

Methods
Adults with tSCI (n=113, 80 men) whom completed baseline, 1, 2, and 5-year community follow-up interviews (2014-2021) were included. Responses to the Spinal Cord Independence Measure (SCIM-III) Sphincter Control and Respiration subscores were extracted. Participants were separated into UMN and LMN groups. A linear mixed model determined longitudinal differences in SCIM subscores. NLI and follow-up time points were assigned as fixed effects, age a random effect, and sex as a covariate. Observed differences were compared to the minimal clinically importance difference (MCID) in SCIM-III subscores.

Results
The mean difference in SCIM-III subscores was 4.85 between the UMN and LMN bowel groups, with UMN group scoring lower at all-time points (p≤0.017). The mean group difference was equal to the MCID, constituting a substantial meaningful difference. No differences in SCIM subscores were noted across time (p≥0.9), regardless of NLI or bowel impairment.

Conclusion
Self-reported sphincter control remains stable for 5 years post-injury, emphasizing the need to maximizing bowel independence before discharge. Individuals with UMN bowel have lower sphincter control scores than individuals with a LMN bowel.

Background/objectives
Research participation for individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) is important to develop and receive promising interventions. It has been suggested that consenting to participate may also be associated with improved long-term outcomes. The objectives of this study are twofold and consisted of 1) verifying whether consenting to participate in a national SCI registry is associated with improved outcomes, and 2) determining predictors of enrolling in the registry.

Methods/overview
This population-based retrospective cohort study was performed on 3854 individuals with acute traumatic SCI approached to participate in the Canadian patient registry (Rick Hansen SCI Registry) between 2014 and 2019. The status of consent (consent vs. declined/withdrew) consisted in the main independent variable. Outcomes included length of stay, in-hospital mortality, discharge destination, occurrence of complications. Multivariable analyses were performed to identify predictors of consenting and its association with each outcome, while accounting for important covariables (demographic-, trauma- and institution-related).

Results
2998 individuals provided consent and 856 individuals declined/withdrew. Older age at injury and living farther away was associated with decreased likelihood for enrollment. While adjusting for covariables, declining participation was associated with increased acute length of stay, higher incidence of acute complications during acute care and decrease likelihood of being discharged home.

Conclusions
Approximately 20% of individuals declined participation in a national registry following an acute SCI, particularly elderly individuals and those living away from the hospital. It is possible that engagement in care and/or care delivery was altered for these individuals, leading to poorer patient outcomes. Enhanced opportunities should be given to subgroups not inclined to participate in research to optimize inclusivity in care delivery, therefore improving outcomes.

Published: December 2023

Background
Spinal cord injury (SCI) affects every aspect of a person’s bodily functions. As such, for a person to survive and strive in the community after SCI, both a comprehensive and effective rehabilitation program, as well as life-sustaining healthcare (i.e., SCI-specific medical services, equipment, and supplies) is needed. Although Canada has a publicly funded universal healthcare system, provinces have flexibility in determining how rehabilitation is delivered and in defining ‘essential’ healthcare.

Methods/Overview
This workshop will consist of two lectures on current standards of care in acute SCI rehabilitation and provision of life-sustaining SCI healthcare services, equipment, and supplies in Canada, followed by an initial overview of standards in other comparable countries and discussion of next steps for developing equity and consistency in Canada for SCI rehabilitation and provision of SCI-related healthcare needs.

Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this workshop, attendees will understand:
Workshop (Health Services, Economics and Policy Change) ID 2012040
Authors: Short Christine , O’Connell Colleen 
Published: December 2023

Background/Objectives
According to the WHO nearly one billion people worldwide live with some form of disability and one fifth of those have significant difficulty functioning as a result.
Climate change is a reality and the impacts on healthcare and the care of our communities is significant. From food and water supply, housing emergency preparedness and safety to the effects on our health, climate change has a disproportionate impact on persons with disabilities.
The purpose of this workshop is to provide attendees with a review of the issues that climate change has created for persons with disabilities with a focus on traumatic and non-traumatic spinal cord injury. We will then move to a group discussion on what we can do individually and as health systems to address these challenges and make sure the rights and safety of persons with disabilities are protected as we navigate our world with Climate Change.

Methods/Overview
We will use powerpoint slides, polls and group discussion to explore this topic.

Results
This workshop will further educate SCI experts nationally/internationally and collect their thoughts and ideas on climate impact on persons with disabilities.

Conclusions
Our hope is that this information will help inform a more formal position statement from the CSCIRA.

Published: December 2023

Abstract. Offshore wind turbine support structures are fatigue-driven designs subject to a wide variety of cyclic loads from wind, waves, and turbine controls. While most wind turbine loads and metocean data are collected at short-term 10 min intervals, some of the largest fatigue cycles have periods over 1 d. Therefore, these low-frequency fatigue dynamics (LFFDs) are not fully considered when working with the industry-standard short-term window. To recover these LFFDs in the state-of-the-industry practices, the authors implemented a short- to long-term factor applied to the accumulated short-term damages while maintaining the ability to work with the 10 min data. In the current work, we study the LFFD impact on the damage from the fore–aft and side–side bending moments and the sensors' strain measurements and their variability within and across wind farms. While results might vary strongly between sites, for the current site and a stress–life (SN) curve slope of m=5, up to 65 % of damage is directly related to LFFDs.

History of the Future: Perspectives of Space, Materiality and Visualization
Authors: Fong Janet 
Published: December 2023

Cet article contribue à l’étude des stratégies curatoriales en explorant les relations spatiales et temporelles entre les expositions dans l’espace physique et les pratiques artistiques technologiques. Souvent qualifiée de « sublime technologique », la nostalgie et l’anticipation contemporaines ajoutent une nouvelle dimension à la croyance populaire dans le pouvoir de la technologie de façonner l’histoire, faisant de la technologie le médiateur de nos interactions avec la nature. Le sublime technologique émerge de la fusion de l’ingéniosité humaine et de la puissance écrasante du monde numérique avec des expériences permettant de créer une condition historique alternative des représentations dans la société. Il s’agit également d’une sensation semblable à celle de se tenir au bord d’un abîme numérique, où les frontières entre le réel et le virtuel s’estompent dans l’espace. Dans des discussions sur les nouvelles méthodologies dans les pratiques artistiques, des commissaires d’exposition envisagent le potentiel de la technologie de briser les limites supposées de l’humanité et évaluent sa participation possible aux pratiques sociales futures et aux démarcations entre l’espace virtuel et l’espace physique. Cet article cherche à découvrir si un environnement virtuel peut être lu comme une extension de la réalité ou comme la coexistence d’environnements physiques et numériques. Cette analyse du fonctionnement des méthodologies curato-riales met en lumière la manière dont la société traite collectivement les interventions technologiques dans les espaces de créativité humaine, tout en révélant leurs liens inextricables. L’article soutient que l’approche ne modifie pas la réalité mais incorpore chacun dans sa réalité. Pour ce faire, l’article se penche sur l’exposition « F.N.S.X. @ History of the Future », qui explore la coexistence et la construction d’une communauté entre les êtres humains et la technologie numérique à travers le travail des artistes Fei Jun, Peter Nelson, Daniel Shanken et Xu Yibo. Parmi les nombreuses méthodes d’interprétation historique, l’exposi-tion se perçoit comme une « micro-histoire ». À la lumière du contexte de l’histoire de l’art dans le domaine de l’objet et de l’espace, « History of the Future » tente d’étudier le potentiel que peuvent apporter des artistes à la narra-tion des images, des objets et des espaces créés à l’aide des outils visuels des nouvelles technologies. Chaque œuvre exposée possède ses propres caractéristiques et sa propre situation historique ; les histoires de l’art individuelles pouvant être considérées comme les trajectoires de diffé-rentes présentations visuelles. Mêlant corrélation spa-tiale, hypermatérialité, visualisation et narration, l’ex-position dépeint l’influence que la créativité peut exercer sur le développement technologique et reflète les possibi-lités offertes par la technologie numérique à la recherche en histoire de l’art.
From the White Cube to the Black Box and back: Lighting design for new media art exhibitions
Authors: Juste Carlijn 
Published: December 2023

Instead of being exhibited in a room full of light, digital or new media art is often shown in dark spaces. While this may initially be explained by technical constraints – works using video projectors work best in dark spaces – subdued lighting is now establishing itself as a new norm for the display of such works. By analyzing contemporary exhibitions and creating numerous links with the exhibition of other objects and art forms, the article questions the aesthetic and perceptive qualities of these forms of lighting. It then goes on to show that artists and curators are now challenging this norm by reintroducing light into new media art exhibition spaces.

Published: December 2023

Objective: At present, sustainable development has acquired the status of an influential legal principle and has become a key marker in the field of legislation that regulates development in all spheres of life. The authors proceed from the fact that the concept of sustainable development will inevitably be transformed. The study aims to determine the opportunity to transform the concept of sustainable development into a new global branch of law with its subject, methods, principles, and functions.

Methods: Qualitative research methods, including a desk review and comparative analysis of scholarly works related to sustainable development, were employed. A selection criteria-based approach was used to identify relevant publications, resulting in the analysis of 72 pertinent papers.

Results: The study results include the main concepts of legal understanding that can be applied to the law of sustainable development, as well as the typical features of social-legal relations included in the subject of sustainable development law. The law of sustainable development is an emerging global branch of law that regulates social relations in the field of sustainable development using traditional and alternative methods.

Conclusion: The study proves that it is expedient to apply the systematic method and the method of public obligations in the law of sustainable development. Opportunities exist for transforming the concept of sustainable development into a distinct global branch of law, facilitating enhanced environmental protection, poverty alleviation, improved quality of life, and national security.
Computational model verification and numerical analysis of plate buckling due to combined loading

Published: December 2023

Thin plates are structures widely used in different industries, due to their mechanical properties. They are often subjected to combined loading, which can cause an undesired phenomenon called buckling. In this sense, the present work analyzes the elasto-plastic buckling behavior of thin steel plates that are simply supported and subjected to in-plane uniaxial or biaxial compression combined with lateral pressure. To obtain the ultimate stress of the plates, a computational model was developed using the finite element method. Initially, the computational model was verified through previous numerical results from the literature. Then, a case study was carried out considering a rectangular plate geometry with an aspect ratio of b/a = 0.5 (where a and b are the length and width of the plate, respectively), under biaxial compression and varying the lateral loading from 0 to 0.152 MPa, aiming to analyze its elasto-plastic buckling behavior. The results indicated that the computational model was adequately verified. From the case study, it was inferred that the load step plays an important role in the numerical prediction accuracy of the elasto-plastic buckling mechanical behavior of plates In addition, the application of initial imperfection for small lateral pressures has little influence on ultimate stress, while for larger lateral pressures it does not generate influence.
