Spinal cord injury (SCI) patients experience long-term deficits in motor and sensory functions. While brain-machine interface (BMI) has shown great promise for restoring neurological functions after ...

Specifically, MWF signals were reduced by up to 26% in the corticospinal tract and 28% in the pontine crossing tract. To rule out dehydration, partial and total CNS volumes were measured.

Bradbury et al. delivered intratechal ChABC to the lesioned dorsal columns of adult rats. They found that ChABC degraded chondroitin sulfate-GAG at the injury site, upregulated a ...

Review: A Lack of Passion Keeps This ‘Orpheus Descending’ Earthbound Erica Schmidt’s revival of this Tennessee Williams play for Theater for a New Audience downplays the melodrama.

More data support the concept of stroke-related restless legs syndrome as an "emerging entity," investigators report in a new study. New research has identified the lenticulostriate and ventral ...

The motor cortex (MCX) and corticospinal tract are necessary for producing skilled movements. Whereas much is known about MCX plasticity and its role in acquiring and maintaining motor skills, much ...

Figure 1. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) schematic. An electric current is generated in the TMS coil, producing a magnetic field perpendicular to the coil. This magnetic field passes through ...

However, it is unlikely that either the reticulospinal or rubrospinal tracts contributed to recovery of dexterous hand movements in this experiment because synaptic transmission presumably through ...
