Central fatigue induced by short-lasting finger tapping and isometric tasks: a study of silent periods evoked at spinal and supraspinal levels
Arias, Pablo; Robles-García, Verónica; Corral Bergantiños, Yoanna; Madrid, Andy; Espinosa, Nelson; Valls-Solé, Josep; Grieve, Kenneth; Oliviero, Antonio; Cudeiro, Javier (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 ... -
Differential responses of spinal motoneurons to fatigue induced by short-lasting repetitive and isometric tasks
Madrid, Antonio; Valls-Solé, Josep; Oliviero, Antonio; Cudeiro, Javier; Arias, Pablo (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 ... -
Response of spinal excitability to different short-lasting motor tasks: preliminary results
Madrid, Antonio; Robles-García, Verónica; Valls-Solé, Josep; Corral-Bergantiños, Yoanna; Oliviero, Antonio; Cudeiro, Javier; Arias, Pablo (Springer Nature, 2017)[Abstract] Understanding the origin of muscle fatigue is essential for optimizing neuro-rehabilitation treatments. Fatigue is tasks dependent and its neural substrates have been deeply addressed for isometric contractions. ... -
The effects of auditory startle and nonstartle stimuli on step initiation in Parkinson's disease
Fernández-del-Olmo, Miguel; Bello, Olalla; López-Alonso, Virginia; Sánchez Molina, José-Andrés; Santos-García, Diego; Valls-Solé, Josep (Wiley, 2012-10-02)[Abstract] Background. Auditory external cues enhance step initiation in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. We wanted to explore whether a startle reaction has a comparable effect on step initiation in PD. Methods. Thirteen ... -
The Effects of Startle and Non-Startle Auditory Stimuli on Wrist Flexion Movement in Parkinson's Disease
Fernández-del-Olmo, Miguel; Bello, Olalla; López-Alonso, Virginia; Márquez, Gonzalo; Sánchez Molina, José-Andrés; Morenilla, Luis; Valls-Solé, Josep (Elsevier, 2013)[Abstract] Startle stimuli lead to shorter reaction times in control subjects and Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. However, non-startle stimuli also enhance movement initiation in PD. We wanted to examine whether a ...
