Automatic activation of motor programs by object affordances in patients with Parkinson's disease.
14 Jul 2009 
Clinical observations of kinesia paradoxica and freezing in patients with Parkinson's disease suggest that the automatic activation of motor programmes by visual stimuli may not require intact basal ganglia function, and that an increased ...

Changes in performance monitoring during sensorimotor adaptation.
13 Jul 2009 Error detection and correction are essential components of motor skill learning. These processes have been well characterized in cognitive psychology using electroencephalography (EEG) to record an event-related potential (ERP) called error-related ...

Hypometria and bradykinesia during drawing movements in individuals with Parkinson's disease.
8 Jul 2009 To address the hypothesis that Parkinson's disease (PD) patients have deficits in controlling acceleration, a drawing task was used in which target size, frequency, and weight of pen were manipulated. In accordance with previous results, it was ...

Coin rotation task (CRT): a new test of motor dexterity.
8 Jul 2009 Coin-rotation task (CRT), a measure of rapid, coordinated finger movements, was devised as a convenient, easily administered bedside test of motor dexterity; however, very little psychometric data exist regarding this task. The current project was ...

Elbow flexion after primary reconstruction in obstetric brachial plexus palsy.
6 Jul 2009 Fifty-two children (54 upper extremities) with obstetric brachial plexus palsy who underwent primary reconstruction for elbow flexion restoration were studied. The outcomes were analysed in relation to the type of brachial plexus lesion, timing of ...

Ability to adjust reach extent in the hemiplegic arm.
6 Jul 2009 OBJECTIVE: Insufficient information exists about the ability of hemiparetic patients to adjust reach extent during early recovery from stroke. Further knowledge may suggest guidance for therapy intervention. The objective of this study was to ...

5 Jul 2009 
BACKGROUND: Following practice of skilled movements, changes continue to take place in the brain that both strengthen and modify memory for motor learning. These changes represent motor memory consolidation a process whereby new memories are ...

Representation of internal models of action in the autistic brain.
3 Jul 2009 Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have deficits in motor control, imitation and social function. Does a dysfunction in the neural basis of representing internal models of action contribute to these problems? We measured patterns of ...

Interhemispheric interaction in the motor domain in children with cerebral palsy.
29 Jun 2009 BACKGROUND: The attention of pediatric specialists has been continuously attracted to the problem of cerebral palsy (CP) and the formation of behavioral and motor skills in the initial years of life in these patients. This work aimed at studying the ...
