a Bold values show improved parameters after the intervention compared with the baseline measures. AIS = American Spinal Cord Injury Impairment Scale; LEMS = Lower Extremity Motor Score; LT = locomotor training; NLI = Neurologic Level of Injury; R | L = right | left; Tibial SSEP = tibial nerve stimulation-induced somatosensory evoked potential recorded at Cz’-Fz; tSCS = transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation; UEMS = Upper Extremity Motor Score.
