ObjectiveThis study focuses on patients with spinal cord injury (SCI), using healthy subjects as controls, and employs functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to compare the strength of resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) between SCI patients and healthy subjects, providing neuroimaging evidence for the neuropathological mechanisms of sensory-motor dysfunction and other functional impairments in SCI patients.MethodTwenty-three healthy adults were included as the health control (HC
