Modified forelimb grip strength test detects aging-associated physiological decline in skeletal muscle function in male mice

Scientific Reports, 2017
The conventional forelimb grip strength test is a widely used method to assess skeletal muscle function in rodents; in this study, we modified this method to improve its variability and consistency.

Turning into frogs: asymmetry in forelimb emergence and escape direction in metamorphosing anurans [PDF]

, 2016
There is considerable debate about the pattern and origin of laterality in forelimb emergence and turning behaviour within amphibians, with the latter being poorly investigated in tadpoles around metamorphic climax.

Clinical-epidemiological evaluation of bicipital tendinopathy and medial shoulder instability in dogs (Canis lupus familiaris)

Medicina Veterinária
Medial shoulder instability (MSI) and bicipital tendinopathy (BT) are important causes of pain and lameness in dogs. Aimed to determine prevalence and risk factor for MSI and BT by clinical orthopedic evaluation of dogs with diverse illnesses treated in

Determining the radiological indices of the third phalanx in the forelimbs of ponies [PDF]

Veterinary and Comparative Biomedical Research
It is essential to monitor the condition and assess the functionality of motor organs in horses. The aim of this study was to use radiology to ascertain the biometric characteristics of the third phalanx in ponies, as there has been no comparison with ...

Circle Diameter Impacts Stride Frequency and Forelimb Stance Duration at Various Gaits in Horses

Sensors, 2023
The effects of gait and diameter have been studied independently, but rarely together in equine circular exercise studies. This study aimed to determine the impact of diameter (10-m or 15-m) at various gaits (walk, trot, and canter) on stride frequency ...

Somatosensory Cortex Plays an Essential Role in Forelimb Motor Adaptation in Mice

Neuron, 2017
SUMMARY Our motor outputs are constantly re-calibrated to adapt to systematic perturbations. This motor adaptation is thought to depend on the ability to form a memory of a systematic perturbation, often called an internal model.

Possible modulation of the amplitude and frequency of resting parkinsonian tremor by touching the trapezius muscle

Clinical Case Reports, 2020
The pathophysiological mechanism of resting tremor in Parkinson's disease remains obscure. Spinal/peripheral mechanisms may modulate oscillatory activity from central origin, thereby changing amplitude and frequency of tremor in Parkinson's disease.

Forelimb movements evoked by optogenetic stimulation of the macaque motor cortex

bioRxiv, 2019
Optogenetics has become an indispensable tool for investigating brain functions. Although non-human primates are particularly useful models for understanding the functions and dysfunctions of the human brain, application of optogenetics to non-human ...
