Ischemia-induced cutaneous anesthesia of the healthy hand in patients with chronic stroke elicits transient improvements of motor performance in the contralateral, paretic hand. ...
Interhemispheric inhibition (IHI) between motor cortical areas is thought to play a critical role in motor control and could influence manual dexterity. The purpose of this study was to investigate IHI preceding movements of the dominant and nondominant ha ...
Mental rotation of body parts is performed through inner simulation of actual movements, and is likely to rely upon cortical and subcortical systems (e.g. motor and premotor areas and basal ganglia) involved in motor planning and execution. Studies indicat ...
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 ...
The effect of motor training using closed loop controlled Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) on motor performance was studied in 5 spinal cord injured (SCI) volunteers. The subjects trained 2 to 3 times a week during 2 months on a newly developed reha ...
Movements of the paretic hand in patients with chronic subcortical stroke are associated with high interhemispheric inhibition (IHI) targeting the motor cortex in the lesioned hemisphere relative to healthy controls. The purpose of this investigation was t ...
Visuomotor tasks elicit neuronal activity in primate motor areas at relatively short latencies. Although this early activity embodies features of visual responses (short latency, stimulus-dependency), its sensory nature has been questioned. We investigated ...
The motor actions that can be witnessed as a virtuoso musician performs can be so fast, so accomplished, so precise, as to seem somehow superhuman. The musician has to produce the movements, monitor those they have already made and the subsequent result, c ...
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the general population. Cardinal symptoms of Parkinson's disease are resting tremor, rigidity, akinesia and bradykinesia and in advanced stages, gait impairments, postural inst ...
Handwriting (HW), unlike reaching or walking, is a high-level motor activity, engaging large parts of cortical and sub-cortical regions that include supplementary motor area(SMA), premotor area(PM), primary motor area(M1), basal ganglia(BG), cerebellum, sp ...
