A Static Distributed-parameter Circuit Model Explains Electrical Stimulation on the Neuromuscular System [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Finite Element Modeling (FEM) has been widely used to model the electric field distribution, to study the interaction between stimulation electrodes and neural tissue. However, due to the insufficient computational capability to represent neural tissue down to an atom-level, the existing FEM fails to model the real electric field that is perpendicular ...

Improving human ankle joint position sense using an artificial tongue-placed tactile biofeedback [PDF]
Neuroscience letters 405 (2006) 19-23, 2006 Proprioception is comprised of sensory input from several sources including muscle spindles, joint capsule, ligaments and skin. The purpose of the present experiment was to investigate whether the central nervous system was able to integrate an artificial biofeedback delivered through electrotactile stimulation of the tongue to improve proprioceptive ...

Ligand-dependent opening of the multiple AMPA receptor conductance states: a concerted model [PDF]
, 2014 Modulation of the properties of AMPA receptors at the post-synaptic membrane is one of the main suggested mechanisms behind synaptic plasticity in the central nervous system of vertebrates. Electrophysiological recordings of single channels stimulated with agonists showed that both recombinant and native AMPA receptors visit multiple conductance states

Cortical Excitability Before and After Long‐Term Perampanel Treatment for Epilepsy
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Antiseizure medications (ASMs), which may influence cortical excitability, are the mainstay of epilepsy treatment. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) helps evaluate cortical excitability. We assessed changes in TMS responses using serial TMS measurements in people treated with an adjunctive noncompetitive AMPA‐receptor ...

Current Concepts on Drug Abuse and Dependence [PDF]
, 2015 Drug addiction is a complex disease characterized by compulsive and uncontrollable desire to seek and consume the drug. In time, drug-related terminology has undergone many changes, arising from the deepening of the mechanisms of action, but also about ...

Gyrosonics a Novel Stimulant for Autonomic Nervous System [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 Gyrosonics refers to novel audio binaural stimulus that produces rotational perceptions of sound movement in head at a particular predetermined frequency. Therapeutic effect observed with this is considered to be associated with modification of arousal of autonomic nervous system.

CNS Mitochondria‐Derived Vesicle in Blood: Potential Biomarkers for Brain Mitochondria Dysfunction
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's (AD) and Parkinson's (PD). Our goal was to develop practical, noninvasive methods to assess mitochondrial status through the detection of mitochondria‐derived vesicles (MDVs).
