Sleep paralysis in narcolepsy: more than just a motor dissociative phenomenon?

Sleep paralyses are viewed as pure motor phenomena featured by a dissociated state in which REM-related muscle atonia coexists with a wakefulness state of full consciousness. We present a 59-year-old man diagnosed with narcolepsy experiencing sleep paralys ...

The neural correlates of the shine-through effect

Michael Herzog, Gijs Plomp, Yvonne Evelina Thunell

Shine-through occurs when a briefly presented vernier stimulus is followed by a grating consisting of 25 lines: the vernier appears brighter, longer, wider, and superimposed on the grating. However, vernier offset discrimination is strongly impeded if two ...

The neural correlates of the shine-through effect as revealed by high-density EEG

Michael Herzog, Gijs Plomp, Yvonne Evelina Thunell

When a briefly presented vernier stimulus is followed by a grating consisting of 25 lines, the vernier appears brighter, longer, wider, and superimposed on the grating (shine-through). However, the vernier is largely invisible if two of the lines in the gr ...

Controlling patient participation during robot-assisted gait training

Background: The overall goal of this paper was to investigate approaches to controlling active participation in stroke patients during robot-assisted gait therapy. Although active physical participation during gait rehabilitation after stroke was shown to ...

Non-retinotopic feature integration has a neural pace of its own, as revealed by electrical brain imaging

Michael Herzog, Olaf Blanke, Gijs Plomp, Thomas Otto, Manuel Mercier

When elements appear in quick succession they can integrate across space and time. Using high-density EEG techniques we show that such non-retinotopic feature integration is not time-locked to stimulus onset, but has a timing of its own. We presented a cen ...

Continuous Brain-Actuated Control of an Intelligent Wheelchair by Human EEG

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Eileen Lew Yi Lee

The objective of this study is to assess the feasibility of controlling an asynchronous and non-invasive brain-actuated wheelchair by human EEG. Three subjects were asked to mentally drive the wheelchair to 3 target locations using 3 mental commands. These ...

Motor intention in the posterior parietal cortex

Jugoslava Acimovic

The complexity of processes occurring in the brain is an intriguing issue not just for scientists and medical doctors, but the humanity in general. The cortex ability to perceive and analyze an enormous amount of information in an instance of time, the par ...

Phase synchronization for classification of spontaneous EEG signals in brain-computer interfaces

Elly Gysels

By directly analyzing brain activity, Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) allow for communication that does not rely on any muscular control and therefore constitute a possible communication channel for the completely paralyzed. Typically, the user performs d ...
