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 ...
The mechanistic foundation of Weber’s law
(Nature, 2019-08-12)
[Abstract] Although Weber's law is the most firmly established regularity in sensation, no principled way has been identified to choose between its many proposed explanations. We investigated Weber's law by training rats ...
State-dependent geometry of population activity in rat auditory cortex
(eLife Sciences, 2019-04-10)
[Abstract] The accuracy of the neural code depends on the relative embedding of signal and noise in the activity of neural populations. Despite a wealth of theoretical work on population codes, there are few empirical ...
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 ...
