Effects of early or late-evening fatiguing physical activity on sleep quality in non-professional sportsmen
(Edizioni Minerva Médica, 2016-05-01)
[Abstract]
Background: This study aims to understand whether night sleep-quality is distorted by fatiguing physical activity (PA) when conducted early or late in the evening.
Methods: Nine males (18-38yrs) performed ...
Double-blind, randomized, placebo controlled trial on the effect of 10 days low-frequency rTMS over the vertex on sleep in Parkinson’s disease
(Elsevier, 2010-07-31)
[Abstract] Objective: A recent report indicates repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) improves sleep
in Parkinson’s disease (PD). The aim of this work is to evaluate the effect of 10 days rTMS on sleep ...
Effects of Fatigue Induced by Repetitive Movements and Isometric Tasks on Reaction Time
(Elsevier, 2020-09-25)
[Abstract]
Purpose:
The understanding of fatigue of the human motor system is important in the fields of ergonomics, sport, rehabilitation and neurology. In order to understand the interactions between fatigue and reaction ...
Controlled trial on the effect of 10 days low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on motor signs in Parkinson´s disease
(Wiley, 2010-07-28)
[Abstract] We evaluated the effect of low-frequency rTMS
on motor signs in Parkinson’s disease (PD), under a doubleblind
placebo-controlled trial design. PD patients were randomly
assigned to received either real (n 5 ...
Temporal Dynamics of Muscle, Spinal and Cortical Excitability and Their Association With Kinematics During Three Minutes of Maximal-Rate Finger Tapping
(Springer Nature, 2020-02-21)
[Abstract]
We tested peripheral, spinal and cortical excitability during 3 minutes of unresisted finger tapping at the maximal possible rate, which induced fatigue. Subsequently, we studied the temporal dynamics of muscle ...
Differential responses of spinal motoneurons to fatigue induced by short-lasting repetitive and isometric tasks
(Elsevier, 2016-10-24)
[Abstract] Compared to isometric activities, the neural basis of fatigue induced by repetitive tasks has been scarcely studied. Recently, we showed that during short-lasting repetitive tasks at the maximal possible rate ...
Effects of a finger tapping fatiguing task on M1-intracortical inhibition and central drive to the muscle
(Nature, 2018)
[Abstract] The central drive to the muscle reduces when muscle force wanes during sustained MVC, and this is generally considered the neurophysiological footprint of central fatigue. The question is if force loss and the ...
Motor facilitation during real-time movement imitation in Parkinson’s disease: a virtual reality study
(Elsevier, 2013-08-06)
[Abstract] Background: Impaired temporal stability and poor motor unit recruitment are key impairments in Parkinsonian motor control during a whole spectrum of rhythmic movements, from simple finger tapping to gait. Therapies ...
Balancing the excitability of M1 circuitry during movement observation without overt replication
(Frontiers, 2014-09-17)
[Abstract] Although observation of a movement increases the excitability of the motor system
of the observer, it does not induce a motor replica. What is the mechanism for
replica suppression? We performed a series of ...
