Spinal Cord Excitability and Sprint Performance Are Enhanced by Sensory Stimulation During Cycling

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Spinal cord excitability, as assessed by modulation of Hoffmann (H-) reflexes, is reduced with fatiguing isometric contractions. Furthermore, spinal cord excitability is reduced during non-fatiguing arm and leg cycling.

After stroke bidirectional modulation of soleus stretch reflex amplitude emerges during rhythmic arm cycling

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014
Objectives: After stroke a typical presentation is exaggerated stretch reflexes (SR) on the more affected (MA) side. The present study evaluated the contribution of presynaptic inhibition (PSI) induced by arm cycling and homosynaptic depression (HD) to ...

Revolutionizing drug development: harnessing the potential of organ-on-chip technology for disease modeling and drug discovery

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
The inefficiency of existing animal models to precisely predict human pharmacological effects is the root reason for drug development failure. Microphysiological system/organ-on-a-chip technology (organ-on-a-chip platform) is a microfluidic device ...

Cross-pollination of research findings, although uncommon, may accelerate discovery of human disease genes

BMC Medical Genetics, 2012
Background Technological leaps in genome sequencing have resulted in a surge in discovery of human disease genes. These discoveries have led to increased clarity on the molecular pathology of disease and have also demonstrated considerable overlap in the

How many human pathogens are there in Laos? An estimate of national human pathogen diversity and analysis of historical trends

BMJ Global Health, 2020
Objective The emergence of infectious diseases pose major global health threats. Estimates of total in-country human pathogen diversity, and insights as to how and when species were described through history, could be used to estimate the probability of ...
