Antagonist muscle co-activation during straight walking and its relation to kinematics: Insight from young, elderly and Parkinson's disease
Arias, Pablo; Espinosa, Nelson; Robles-García, Verónica; Cao, Ricardo; Cudeiro, Javier (Elsevier, 2012-03-21)[Abstract] Increased antagonist muscle co-activation of the lower limb during walking seems to be an adaptive process to the physiological changes of aging, in order to gain joint stability. In the healthy subjects this ... -
Bootstrap testing for cross-correlation under low firing activity
González Montoro, Aldana María; Cao, Ricardo; Espinosa, Nelson; Cudeiro, Javier; Mariño Alfonso, Xurxo (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 ... -
Bursting thalamic responses in awake monkey contribute to visual detection and are modulated by corticofugal feedback
Ortuño Silva, Tania; Grieve, Kenneth; Cao, Ricardo; Cudeiro, Javier; Rivadulla, Casto (Frontiers, 2014-05-30)[Abstract] The lateral geniculate nucleus is the gateway for visual information en route to the visual cortex. Neural activity is characterized by the existence of two firing modes: burst and tonic. Originally associated ... -
Cross nearest-spike interval based method to measure synchrony dynamics
González Montoro, Aldana María; Cao, Ricardo; Faes, Christel; Molenberghs, Geert; Espinosa, Nelson; Cudeiro, Javier; Mariño Alfonso, Xurxo (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
Labra, Carmen de; Rivadulla, Casto; Espinosa, Nelson; Dasilva, Miguel; Cao, Ricardo; Cudeiro, Javier (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 ... -
Functional two-way analysis of variance and bootstrap methods for neural synchrony analysis
González Montoro, Aldana María; Cao, Ricardo; Espinosa, Nelson; Cudeiro, Javier; Mariño Alfonso, Xurxo (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, ...
