Bilateral robot therapy based on haptics and reinforcement learning: Feasibility study of a new concept for treatment of patients after stroke.

30 Oct 2009 OBJECTIVE: To carry out a preliminary feasibility study of a new concept of robot therapy for severely impaired patients after stroke. DESIGN: A haptic manipulandum connected to a bar that can rotate freely while providing a measure of the rotation ...

Vascular risk factors, HIV serostatus, and cognitive dysfunction in gay and bisexual men.

18 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between cognitive performance, risk factors for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease (CVD), and HIV infection in the era of highly active antiretroviral therapy. METHODS: ...

Cerebellar contributions to adaptive control of saccades in humans.

12 Oct 2009 The cerebellum may monitor motor commands and through internal feedback correct for anticipated errors. Saccades provide a test of this idea because these movements are completed too quickly for sensory feedback to be useful. Earlier, we reported ...

Regional changes in word-production laterality after a naming treatment designed to produce a rightward shift in frontal activity.

4 Oct 2009 Five nonfluent aphasia patients participated in a picture-naming treatment that used an intention manipulation (opening a box and pressing a button on a device in the box with the left hand) to initiate naming trials and was designed to ...

Relative preservation of MMSE scores in autopsy-proven dementia with Lewy bodies.

4 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Recent studies raised questions about the severity of cognitive impairment associated with dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). However, there have been few analyses of large, multicenter data registries for clinical-pathologic correlation. ...

Driving under low-contrast visibility conditions in Parkinson disease.

4 Oct 2009 OBJECTIVE: To assess driving performance in Parkinson disease (PD) under low-contrast visibility conditions. METHODS: Licensed, active drivers with mild to moderate PD (n = 67, aged 66.2 +/- 9.0 years, median Hoehn-Yahr stage = 2) and controls (n = ...

Sequential Monte Carlo point-process estimation of kinematics from neural spiking activity for brain-machine interfaces.

29 Sep 2009 Many decoding algorithms for brain machine interfaces' (BMIs) estimate hand movement from binned spike rates, which do not fully exploit the resolution contained in spike timing and may exclude rich neural dynamics from the modeling. More recently, ...

Verbal representation in task order control: an examination with transition and task cues in random task switching.

29 Sep 2009 Recent task-switching studies in which a predictable task sequence has been used have indicated that verbal representation contributes to the control of task order information. The present study focused on the role of verbal representation in ...

Association of ideomotor apraxia with frontal gray matter volume loss in corticobasal syndrome.

29 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVE: To determine the brain areas associated with specific components of ideomotor apraxia (IMA) in corticobasal syndrome (CBS). DESIGN: Case-control and cross-sectional study. PARTICIPANTS: Forty-eight patients with CBS and 14 control ...
