Visual learning shapes the processing of complex movement stimuli in the human brain.

2 Nov 2009 Recognition of actions and complex movements is fundamental for social interactions and action understanding. While the relationship between motor expertise and visual recognition of body movements has received a vast amount of interest, the role of ...

Decreased firing of striatal neurons related to licking during acquisition and overtraining of a licking task.

2 Nov 2009 Neurons that fire in relation to licking, in the ventral part of the dorsolateral striatum (DLS), were studied during acquisition and performance of a licking task in rats for 14 sessions (2 h/d). Task learning was indicated by fewer errors of ...

The nitric oxide/cGMP pathway tunes the thermosensitivity of swimming motor patterns in Xenopus laevis tadpoles.

2 Nov 2009 We investigated the role of the nitric oxide (NO)/cGMP pathway in setting thresholds for failure and recovery during hyperthermic stress of the swimming central pattern generator of immobilized Xenopus tadpoles (stage 42). We recorded swimming motor ...

Functional clustering of neurons in motor cortex determined by cellular resolution imaging in awake behaving mice.

2 Nov 2009 Macroscopic (millimeter scale) functional clustering is a hallmark characteristic of motor cortex spatial organization in awake behaving mammals; however, almost no information is known about the functional micro-organization (approximately 100 ...

Endocannabinoid modulation of amphetamine sensitization is disrupted in a rodent model of lesion-induced dopamine dysregulation.

30 Oct 2009 We tested the hypothesis that increased dopaminergic sensitivity induced by olfactory bulbectomy is mediated by dysregulation of endocannabinoid signaling. Bilateral olfactory bulbectomy induces behavioral and neurobiological symptomatology related ...

Psychometric properties of the Rivermead Motor Assessment: its utility in stroke.

30 Oct 2009 OBJECTIVE: To investigate the psychometric properties of the Rivermead Motor Assessment by Rasch analysis and conventional statistics to improve its clinical utility. METHODS: A total of 107 patients after stroke were evaluated using the Rivermead ...

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation over bilateral hemispheres enhances motor function and training effect of paretic hand in patients after stroke.

30 Oct 2009 OBJECTIVE: The interhemispheric competition model proposes that the functional recovery of motor deficits in patients after stroke can be achieved by increasing the excitability of the affected hemisphere or decreasing the excitability of the ...

Exercises for paretic upper limb after stroke: a combined virtual-reality and telemedicine approach.

30 Oct 2009 OBJECTIVE: Telerehabilitation enables a remotely controlled programme to be used to treat motor deficits in post-stroke patients. The effects of this telerehabilitation approach were compared with traditional motor rehabilitation methods. DESIGN: ...

Robot-assisted rehabilitation of the paretic upper limb: rationale of the ARAMIS project.

30 Oct 2009 Robot ARAMIS (Automatic Recovery Arm Motility Integrated System) is intended to provide the therapist with novel and time/cost-efficient approaches to the rehabilitation of the paretic upper limb after stroke. The system has been designed and ...

Virtual reality and motor rehabilitation of the upper limb after stroke: a generation of progress?

30 Oct 2009 AIM: To review the rationale, criteria of application, potentialities and limits of the available procedures for upper limb rehabilitation in virtual reality setups. METHODS: Classification of the available virtual reality setups and comparison ...
