ASIA: American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale (A: no motor or sensory function is preserved in the sacral segments; B: sensory, but not motor, function is preserved below the neurological level and includes the sacral segments; C: motor function is preserved below the neurological level, and more than half of key muscles below the neurological level have muscle grade < 3; D: motor function is preserved below the neurological level, and at least half of key muscles below the neurological level have muscle grade ≥ 3; E: motor and sensory functions are normal).
