Traumatic spinal cord injuries (TSCIs) can lead to life-threatening consequences and neurological deficits. Sports activities significantly contribute to the incidence of these injuries. It is important to understand the epidemiology of sport-related spinal cord injuries (SCIs) in the Gulf region to improve patient care and increase awareness among this population. While studies from Saudi Arabia and Qatar have addressed SCIs related to both cycling and diving, we believe there is still significant scope for improvement in research on this topic. Special attention should be given to conducting retrospective studies across Gulf countries to establish a well-organized database.
创伤性脊髓损伤（TSCIs）可导致危及生命的后果和神经功能缺损。体育活动在这些损伤的发生率中占很大比例。了解海湾地区与运动相关的脊髓损伤（SCIs）的流行病学情况对于改善患者护理和提高该人群的认识非常重要。虽然沙特阿拉伯和卡塔尔的研究已经涉及与骑自行车和潜水相关的脊髓损伤，但我们认为在这个主题的研究方面仍有很大的改进空间。应特别关注在海湾国家开展回顾性研究，以建立一个组织完善的数据库。
