Transcranial static magnetic field stimulation of the human motor cortex
(Wiley, 2001-08-01)
[Abstract] The aim of the present study was to investigate in healthy humans the possibility of a
non-invasive modulation of motor cortex excitability by the application of static magnetic fields
through the scalp. Static ...
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 ...
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 ...
Fatigue insights from walking tests in spinal cord injury and multiple sclerosis individuals
(Springer Nature, 2024-02-27)
[Abstract] In the last decade, fatigue in clinical populations has been re-conceptualized, including dimensions such as perceived fatigue (trait and state fatigue) and fatigability. The aim of this study was to evaluate ...
Hand motor fatigability induced by a simple isometric task in spinal cord injury
(MDPI, 2022-08-30)
[Abstract] This study aimed: (1) to evaluate the hand motor fatigability in people with spinal cord injury (SCI) and compare it with measurements obtained form an able-bodied population; (2) to compare the hand motor ...
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 ...
Bilateral tDCS on primary motor cortex: effects on fast arm reaching tasks
(PLoS, 2016-08-04)
[Abstract] Background.
The effects produced by transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) applied to the motor system have been widely studied in the past, chiefly focused on primary motor cortex (M1) excitability. ...
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 ...
The effects of expectancy on corticospinal excitability: passively preparing to observe a movement
(American Physiological Society, 2014-01-08)
[Abstract] The corticospinal tract excitability is modulated when preparing movements. Earlier to movement execution, the excitability of the spinal cord increases waiting for supraspinal commands to release the movement. ...
Response of spinal excitability to different short-lasting motor tasks: preliminary results
(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. ...
