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 ...
Prevalence of Fatigue and Associated Factors in a Spinal Cord Injury Population: Data from an Internet-Based and Face-to-Face Surveys
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2017-08-01)
[Abstract] Fatigue has a profound impact on patients with spinal cord injury (SCI), but only limited treatments are available. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of fatigue in SCI and its association ...
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 ...
Aquatic therapy versus conventional land-based therapy for Parkinson's disease: an open-label pilot study
(Elsevier, 2011)
[Abstract] Objectives: To assess and compare 2 different protocols of
physiotherapy (land or water therapy) for people with Parkinson’s
disease (PD) focused on postural stability and self-movement,
and to provide ...
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 ...
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 ...
Changes in excitability at the level of M1, spinal cord and muscle during 3 minutes of finger tapping at the maximal possible rate
(Springer, 2018-10-16)
[Abstract] Linear mixed effects models were used to describe the dynamics of M1, spinal and muscle excitability during index finger tapping at the maximal possible rate, for 3 min. Our results show that tapping rate and ...
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 ...
Figure-ground modulation in awake primate thalamus
(National Academy of Sciences, 2015)
[Abstract] Figure-ground discrimination refers to the perception of an object, the figure, against a nondescript background. Neural mechanisms of figure-ground detection have been associated with feedback interactions ...
