Double-blind, randomized, placebo controlled trial on the effect of 10 days low-frequency rTMS over the vertex on sleep in Parkinson’s disease
(Elsevier, 2010-07-31)
[Abstract] Objective: A recent report indicates repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) improves sleep
in Parkinson’s disease (PD). The aim of this work is to evaluate the effect of 10 days rTMS on sleep ...
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 ...
Effects of a finger tapping fatiguing task on M1-intracortical inhibition and central drive to the muscle
(Nature, 2018)
[Abstract] The central drive to the muscle reduces when muscle force wanes during sustained MVC, and this is generally considered the neurophysiological footprint of central fatigue. The question is if force loss and the ...
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 ...
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 ...
