Influence of Unstable Shoes on Women With Lumbopelvic Postpartum Pain: Randomized Clinical Trial
(Scielo, 2021-07)[Abstract] Background: Back pain is a normal symptom during pregnancy and is expected to become worse beyond the first three months after childbirth. Objectives: To determine the effectiveness of wearing unstable shoes ... -
Interference during simultaneous performance of a motor and cognitive task involving the upper extremity after stroke
(Springer Nature, 2017)[Abstract] After stroke, the ability to perform two tasks concurrently is diminished, which may contribute to less pronounced gains on activity level after rehabilitation. The current study investigated whether upper ... -
Intracuneate mechanisms underlying primary afferent cutaneous processing in anaesthetized cats
(Wiley, 2004-06-02)[Abstract] The cutaneous primary afferents from the upper trunk and forelimbs reach the medial cuneate nucleus in their way towards the cerebral cortex. The aim of this work was twofold: (i) to study the mechanisms used ... -
Intraneural IFG-1 in cryopreserved nerve isografts increase neural regeneration and functional recovery in the rat sciatic nerve
(Oxford, 2018-07-27)[Abstract] Background: Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) was found to stimulate Schwann cell mitosis. Exogenous IGF-1 may improve nerve regeneration after cryopreservation. Objective: To evaulate the effect of ... -
Invariant computations in local cortical networks with balanced excitation and inhibition
(Nature, 2005-06-23)[Abstract] Cortical computations critically involve local neuronal circuits. The computations are often invariant across a cortical area yet are carried out by networks that can vary widely within an area according to its ... -
Kinesiophobia Levels in Patients with Parkinson’s Disease: A Case-Control Investigation
(MDPI, 2021-04-30)[Abstract] Background: Kinesiophobia can be an obstacle to physical and motor activity in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). PD affects patients’ independence in carrying out daily activities. It also impacts a ... -
Lemniscal recurrent and transcortical influences on cuneate neurons
(Elsevier, 2000)[Abstract] Intracellular recordings were obtained from cuneate neurons of chloralose-anesthetized, paralysed cats to study the synaptic responses induced by electrical stimulation of the contralateral medial lemniscus. ... -
Local networks in visual cortex and their influence on neuronal responses and dynamics
(Elsevier, 2005-11-07)[Abstract] Networks of neurons in the cerebral cortex generate complex outputs that are not simply predicted by their inputs. These emergent responses underlie the function of the cortex. Understanding how cortical networks ... -
Looking back: corticothalamic feedback and early visual processing
(Elsevier, 2006)[Abstract] Although once regarded as a simple sensory relay on the way to the cortex, it is increasingly apparent that the thalamus has a role in the ongoing moment-by-moment processing of sensory input and in cognition. ... -
Low-cost virtual reality system in evaluation of rhythmic motor patterns in elderly and Parkinsonian patients
(MIT Press, 2014-04-30)[Abstract] This work details a Virtual Reality (VR) system developed to evaluate and potentially treat alterations in hand movements and central rhythm formation in Parkinsonian and Elderly subjects. An essential feature ... -
M1 inhibition dependency on slowing of muscle relaxation after brief and fast fatiguing repetitive movements: preliminary results
(Springer, 2018-10-16)[Abstract] This work presents preliminary results on the association between central and peripheral expressions of muscle fatigue induced by unresisted repetitive movements. We tested cortico-spinal excitability and ... -
Magnetic field strength and reproducibility of neodymium magnets useful for transcranial static magnetic field stimulation of the human cortex
(Wiley, 2013-10-11)[Abstract] Objective. The application of transcranial static magnetic field stimulation (tSMS) in humans reduces the excitability of the motor cortex for a few minutes after the end of stimulation. However, when tSMS is ... -
Mixed burst and tonic firing in the thalamus: a study in the feline lateral geniculate nucleus in vivo
(Elsevier, 2009)[Abstract] Compounds known to inhibit or disfacilitate cells in cat dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) were applied iontophoretically in vivo. Application of GABA, or agonists of GABAA and GABAB receptors, markedly ... -
Modelling the circuitry of the cuneate nucleus
(Springer, 1999)Experimental data recorded in cat "in vivo" offer a new picture of the cuneate nucleus. Clasically definied as a simple relay station, the cuneate nucleus is currently seen as a fundamental stage in somatosensory information ... -
Modulatory effects mediated by metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 on lateral geniculate nucleus relay cells
(Wiley, 2005-01-18)[Abstract] Glutamate is thought to be the excitatory neurotransmitter in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) of the cat, mediating visual transmission from the retina via ionotropic receptors of both d,l-α-amino-3-hydro ... -
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 ... -

La musicoterapia durante procedimientos en los pacientes quemados
(Proyecto Lumbre, 2020-12)[Resumen] Introducción: en este artículo, se resume una de las pocas revisiones sistemáticas con metaanálisis publicadas sobre los efectos de la musicoterapia en los pacientes quemados. Material y métodos: en la revisión, ... -
New tools for old problems: magnetic stimulation to study (and help) the brain
(Springer Nature, 2017)[Abstract] Magnetic stimulation techniques, either repetitive TMS (rTMS) or Static Magnetic Fields, allow to modulate brain activity through the skull in a non invasive and painless way. When rTMS is used, low frequencies ... -
Nitric oxide-mediated cortical activation: a diffuse wake-up system
(Society of Neuroscience, 2003)Nitric oxide (NO) has been implicated in some of the central pathways engaged in the regulation of the sleep–wake cycle. The existence of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in the cholinergic basal forebrain (BF) cells projecting ...
