Changes in Visual Responses in the Feline dLGN: Selective Thalamic Suppression Induced by Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation of V1
(Oxford University Press, 2006-08-14)
[Abstract] Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the cortex can modify activity noninvasively and produce either excitatory or inhibitory effects, depending on stimulus parameters. Here we demonstrate controlled ...
Bootstrap testing for cross-correlation under low firing activity
(Springer, 2015-04-14)
[Abstract] A new cross-correlation synchrony index for neural activity is proposed. The index is based on the integration of the kernel estimation of the cross-correlation function. It is used to test for the dynamic ...
Functional two-way analysis of variance and bootstrap methods for neural synchrony analysis
(BioMed Central, 2014-08-12)
[Abstract] Background: Pairwise association between neurons is a key feature in understanding neural coding. Statistical
neuroscience provides tools to estimate and assess these associations. In the mammalian brain, ...
Cortical Modulation of the Transient Visual Response at Thalamic Level: A TMS Study
(PLoS ONE, 2011-02-10)
[Abstract] The transient visual response of feline dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) cells was studied under control conditions
and during the application of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation at 1 Hz ...
Effects on EEG of low (1Hz) and high (15Hz) frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation of the visual cortex: a study in the anesthetized cat
(Bentham Open, 2007-12-07)
[Abstract] Here we confirm our earlier findings that showed 1Hz rTMS over the primary visual cortex of the anesthetized cat, known to cause inhibition of the cortex, induces an increase in power in the slow, delta band of ...
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 ...
Cross nearest-spike interval based method to measure synchrony dynamics
(American Institute of Mathematical Sciences, 2014-02)
[Abstract] A new synchrony index for neural activity is de ned in this paper.
The method is able to measure synchrony dynamics in low ring rate scenarios.
It is based on the computation of the time intervals between ...
Different sources of nitric oxide mediate neurovascular coupling in the lateral geniculate nucleus of the cat
(Frontiers, 2009-09-08)
[Abstract] Understanding the link between neuronal responses (NRs) and metabolic signals is fundamental to our knowledge of brain function and it is a milestone in our efforts to interpret data from modern non invasive ...
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 ...
Central fatigue induced by short-lasting finger tapping and isometric tasks: a study of silent periods evoked at spinal and supraspinal levels
(Elsevier, 2015-08-01)
[Abstract] The neural substrates of fatigue induced by muscular activity have been addressed in depth in relation to isometric tasks. For these activities, when fatigue develops, it has been noted that the duration of the ...
