Subacute Sclerosing Panencephalitis of the Brainstem as a Clinical Entity. [PDF]
Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a rare progressive neurological disorder of early adolescence caused by persistent infection of the measles virus, which remains prevalent worldwide despite an effective vaccine. SSPE is a devastating disease

Abstract Synaptic input to the motoneuron pool is altered during fatiguing muscle contractions. In humans, the corticospinal tract is often studied, with equivocal findings regarding its role in the reduction of force. To date, the involvement of the reticulospinal tract during states of fatigue has not been explored.

Tapping into rhythm generation circuitry in humans during simulated weightlessness conditions [PDF]
An ability to produce rhythmic activity is ubiquitous for locomotor pattern generation and modulation. The role that the rhythmogenesis capacity of the spinal cord plays in injured populations has become an area of interest and systematic investigation ...

Prognostic value of early magnetic resonance imaging in dogs after traumatic brain injury: 50 cases [PDF]
Retrospective study of dogs with TBI that underwent 1.5T MRI within 14 days after head trauma. MRI evaluators were blinded to the clinical presentation, and all images were scored based on an MRI grading system (Grade I [normal brain parenchyma] to Grade

Estimates of persistent inward current in human motor neurons during postural sway [PDF]
Persistent inward current (PIC) is a membrane property critical for increasing gain of motor neuron output. In humans, most estimates of PIC are made from plantarflexor or dorsiflexor motor units with the participant in a seated position with the knee ...

ABSTRACT Aim Identifying interactors in sensorimotor processing and neurotransmission remains a current challenge for understanding neural information processing and brain function. Methods To evaluate the role of p11 in sensorimotor processing and excitatory synaptic neurotransmission, neuron‐specific lentivirus‐directed p11 silencing, small ...

Body Temperature Regulation in the Rat by Muscle Tone
ABSTRACT Aim We have previously described an important role of skeletal muscle tone in body temperature regulation, muscle tone defined as the tonic motor unit activity recorded between movements. Here, we study muscle tone in an extensive sample of new muscles outside (external muscles) and inside (internal muscles) the body core.

The effects of type 1 diabetes on the mechanoreflex in rats [PDF]
Mechanical allodynia is present as early as four days in streptozotocin (STZ) induced type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) in rats. This is thought to occur through mechanisms affecting the same thin fiber afferents that evoke the mechanoreflex. In this study,
