How many individuals are currently being monitored in this research endeavor?
"Confirmed. According to clinicaltrials.gov, this medical trial is enlisting patients even as we speak; the original post dating back to May 2nd 2022 and its most recent update being November 25th of that same year. The investigation requires 40 participants from two different clinics."

Furthermore, they must be male or female, possess the capacity to perform Clean Intermittent Catheterization (CIC) by themselves or through a caregiver's assistance; also three days of bladder and bowel history need to precede their baseline visit. Additionally, greater than antigravity strength in deltoids and biceps needs to exist bilaterally for at least one year since injury as well as six months following any spinal surgery. Lastly, documented evidence of either sexual dysfunction or bowels dysfunction should be present."
