The Effects of Spasticity on Glucose Metabolism in Individuals With Spinal Cord Injury

Spinal Cord Injuries Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Effects of Spasticity on Glucose Metabolism and Soft Tissue Body Composition in Individuals With Motor Complete and Motor Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury

Clinical Trial Summary

Muscle atrophy may occur in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) as a result of diminished physical activity and alterations in glucose metabolism and body composition may be seen. In a few studies, it has been suggested that spasticity may have a positive impact on glucose metabolism by preventing muscle atrophy and alterations in body composition in individuals with motor complete SCI. Investigators aimed to assess the effects of spasticity on glucose metabolism and body composition in participants with complete and incomplete SCI.

Clinical Trial Description

Investigators plan a prospective clinical trial. Participants with SCI were included to study if times from injury were at least one year. Participants had an AIS grades of A-D with spasticity. We evaluated that participants with AIS A and B SCI were motor complete group, AIS C and D SCI were motor incomplete group. Spasticity was assessed with Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) and spasms were assessed with Penn Spasm Frequency Scale (PSFS). Hip adductor and extensor spasticity, knee extensor and flexor spasticity and ankle plantar flexor spasticity were assessed by using MAS. Body composition was measured by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. All participants underwent a 75 gram (g) oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Insulin sensitivity was assessed by calculating Matsuda index and HOMA-IR. Investigators assessed the effects of spasticity on glucose metabolism and body composition in participants with SCI. ;
