Capacity, capability, and performance: different constructs or three of a kind?

29 Apr 2009 OBJECTIVES: The present study focused on motor activities of young children with cerebral palsy (CP) and examined the relation between motor capacity (what a person can do in a standardized, controlled environment), motor capability (what a person ...

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation to the primary motor cortex interferes with motor learning by observing.

29 Apr 2009 Neural representations of novel motor skills can be acquired through visual observation. We used repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to test the idea that this "motor learning by observing" is based on engagement of neural processes ...

Stability of neuromotor outcomes at 18 and 30 months of age after extremely low birth weight status.

29 Apr 2009 BACKGROUND: Extremely low birth weight (< or =1000 g) children have increased rates of cerebral palsy and other abnormal neurologic findings. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the stability of neuromotor findings between 18 and 30 months' adjusted age in ...

Trends in prevalence and characteristics of cerebral palsy among Icelandic children born 1990 to 2003.

29 Apr 2009 AIM: To describe trends in cerebral palsy (CP) prevalence, severity, and associated impairments among 139 Icelandic children (65 males, 74 females) born from 1990 to 1996 (period one) and 1997 to 2003 (period two). METHOD: A population-based study ...

Coordinate transformations for hand-guided saccades.

28 Apr 2009 Relatively little is known about the role of proprioception in eye-hand coordination. In a previous article (Ren et al. J Neurophysiol 96:1464-1477, 2006), we observed anisotropic (direction-dependent) saccade overshoots to hand-held targets during ...

Newborn Individual Development Care and Assessment Program (NIDCAP): a systematic review of the literature.

27 Apr 2009 BACKGROUND: Important advancements have been made in the care of preterm infants. Health services have introduced various methods aimed at promoting attachment, breastfeeding, and neurological development. The Newborn Individualized Developmental ...

A comparison of motor skill learning and retention in younger and older adults.

27 Apr 2009 The goal of the current study was to explore learning and short-term retention using a modified serial reaction time task. The multi-finger sequence task was designed to present repeated and random sequences in a completely interleaved fashion, ...

Motor decline in clinically presymptomatic spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 gene carriers.

27 Apr 2009 BACKGROUND: Motor deficits are a critical component of the clinical characteristics of patients with spinocerebellar ataxia type 2. However, there is no current information on the preclinical manifestation of those motor deficits in presymptomatic ...

Homeostatic and nonhomeostatic modulation of learning in human motor cortex.

27 Apr 2009 Motor learning is important throughout life for acquisition and adjustment of motor skill. The extent of motor learning may be modulated by the history of motor cortex activity, but little is known which metaplasticity rule (homeostatic vs ...
