Rhythmic movements in sleep disorders and in epileptic seizures during sleep
Sleep Science and Practice, 2020 Rhythmic movements during sleep may occur in the context of physiological sleep-related motor activity or be part of sleep-related movement disorders such as bruxism, periodic limb movement disorder, restless legs syndrome, and sleep-related rhythmic ...

A Scalar Poincaré Map for Anti-phase Bursting in Coupled Inhibitory Neurons With Synaptic Depression
Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2022 Short-term synaptic plasticity is found in many areas of the central nervous system. In the inhibitory half-center central pattern generators involved in locomotion, synaptic depression is believed to act as a burst termination mechanism, allowing ...

EPHA4 signaling dysregulation links abnormal locomotion and the development of idiopathic scoliosis
eLifeIdiopathic scoliosis (IS) is the most common form of spinal deformity with unclear pathogenesis. In this study, we first reanalyzed the loci associated with IS, drawing upon previous studies.

A CPG‐Based Versatile Control Framework for Metameric Earthworm‐Like Robotic Locomotion
Advanced Science, 2023 Annelids such as earthworms are considered to have central pattern generators (CPGs) that generate rhythms in neural circuits to coordinate the deformation of body segments for effective locomotion. At present, the states of earthworm‐like robot segments

Invertebrate central pattern generator circuits [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2010 There are now a reasonable number of invertebrate central pattern generator (CPG) circuits described in sufficient detail that a mechanistic explanation of how they work is possible. These small circuits represent the best-understood neural circuits with which to investigate how cell-to-cell synaptic connections and individual channel conductances ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...
