A Computational Model of Cuneothalamic Projection Neurons
(Taylor and Francis, 2003)[Abstract] The dorsal column nuclei, cuneatus and gracilis, play a fundamental role in the processing and integration of somesthetic ascending information. Intracellular and patch-clamp recordings obtained in cat in vivo ... -
A realistic computational model of the local circuitry of the cuneate nucleus
(Springer, 2001)Intracellular recordings obtained under cutaneous and lemniscal stimulation show that the afferent fibers can establish excitatory and inhibitory synaptic connections with cuneothalamic neurons [5]. In addition, distinct ... -
A simple procedure using auditory stimuli to improve movement in Parkinson´s disease: a pilot study
(Research Gate, 2003-01-25)[Abstract] It has been suggested that sequential movements in Parkinsonian patients might be improved by the effects of external rhythmic cues, either visual or acoustic, acting as a sort of timekeeper. ... -
Actions of compounds manipulating the nitric Oxide system in the cat primary visual cortex
(Wiley, 1997-10)[Abstract:] We iontophoretically applied NG-nitro-L-arginine (l-NOArg), an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), to cells (n= 77) in area 17 of anaesthetized and paralysed cats while recording single-unit activity ... -
Acute effects of a single neurodynamic mobilization session on range of motion and H-reflex in asymptomatic young subjects: a controlled study
(Wiley, 2023-06-18)[Abstract] Neurodynamic techniques have yielded good clinical results in the treatment of various pathologies. The objective of this study is to examine the short-term effects of neurodynamic techniques of the sciatic nerve ... -
Adaptations of the Walking Corsi Test (WalCT) for 2- and 3-year-old preterm and term-born toddlers: a preliminary study
(Frontiers, 2023-03-17)[Abstract] Introduction: Topographical memory is crucial for navigation and environmental representation. The Walking Corsi Test (WalCT) has been used to evaluate topographical memory in children from 4 years upward. The ... -
Alterations in microglial phenotype and hippocampal neuronal function in transgenic mice with astrocyte-targeted production of interleukin-10
(Elsevier, 2015-03)[Abstract] Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a cytokine classically linked with anti-inflammatory and protective functions in the central nervous system (CNS) in different neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory conditions. In ... -
Always returning: feedback and sensory processing in visual cortex and thalamus
(Elsevier, 2006-05-19)[Abstract] Feedback projections are an integral part of the mammalian visual system. Although it is tempting to relegate them to a subsidiary role in visual processing, because their supposed latency and lag might appear ... -
Anandamide activation of CB1 receptors increases spontaneous bursting and oscillatory activity in the thalamus
(Elsevier, 2014-02-05)[Abstract] The endocannabinoid system is a modulatory system that has been strongly associated with the regulation of functions as learning and memory, pain perception and sensory physiology in many areas of the central ... -
Antagonist muscle co-activation during straight walking and its relation to kinematics: Insight from young, elderly and Parkinson's disease
(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 ... -
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 ... -
Assessment of selective attention in children through Digital Teddy: preliminary study
(EasyChair, 2023-02-16)[Abstract]: Cancellation tests are adequate to detect selective attention in children. These tests are usually performed using paper and pencil, which considerably reduces the capacity to register important parameters and ... -
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 ... -
La barbacoa mágica (primera parte)
(Universitat de València, 2022-09)[Resumen] La próxima vez que te encuentres cerca de una barbacoa, procura degustar con calma y atención lo que ahí se cuece. Delante de ti se está cerrando un círculo de la naturaleza de proporciones colosales. Me refiero ... -
La barbacoa mágica (segunda parte)
(Universitat de València, 2022-11)[Resumen] Vamos a tomar otra ración de poesía científica, esta vez en forma de chuletón. Las brasas incandescentes iluminaron el artículo anterior de esta sección: luz solar atrapada por algún árbol y encapsulada en forma ... -
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. ... -
Bootstrap testing for cross-correlation under low firing activity
(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
(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 ...
