melatonin has been researched along with Paraplegia in 5 studies
Paraplegia: Severe or complete loss of motor function in the lower extremities and lower portions of the trunk. This condition is most often associated with SPINAL CORD DISEASES, although BRAIN DISEASES; PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DISEASES; NEUROMUSCULAR DISEASES; and MUSCULAR DISEASES may also cause bilateral leg weakness.

| " Here, we examined the evening onset of melatonin secretion, an important hormone for the initiation of sleep, in people with a complete cervical (tetraplegia) and thoracic (paraplegia) SCI, and age- and sex-matched able-bodied control participants." | 3.78 | Complete absence of evening melatonin increase in tetraplegics. ( Atkinson, G; Groothuis, JT; Hopman, MT; Jones, H; Nyakayiru, J; Thijssen, DH; Thompson, A; Verheggen, RJ, 2012) |
| "Recently, we reported that tetraplegia is associated with a blunted release of melatonin in the evening." | 1.40 | Within-subject correlations between evening-related changes in body temperature and melatonin in the spinal cord injured.

| "Melatonin production was absent in the three tetraplegic subjects with injury to their lower cervical spinal cord and was of normal amplitude and timing in the two paraplegic subjects with injury to their upper thoracic spinal cord." | 1.31 | Absence of detectable melatonin and preservation of cortisol and thyrotropin rhythms in tetraplegia. ( Ayas, NT; Brown, R; Czeisler, CA; Shea, SA; Zeitzer, JM, 2000) |
