Locomotor activity in spinal man
Gait & Posture, 1994We studied whether spinal locomotor centres of patients with paraplegia can be activated by external stimuli. In patients with complete paraplegia, coordinated stepping movements were induced by weight support and standing on a moving treadmill. The pattern of leg muscle electromyographic (EMG) activity was similar to that seen in healthy subjects ...

Trunk Kinematics During Locomotor Activities
Physical Therapy, 1992We investigated upper-body (ie, trunk) angular kinematics (motions) during gait, stair climbing and descending, and rising from a chair in two reference frames--relative to the pelvis and to room coordinates. Bilateral kinematic data were collected from 11 healthy subjects (6 female, 5 male), who were 27 to 88 years of age (mean = 58.9, SD = 17.9 ...

Locomotor activity and anorexogenic action
Psychopharmacologia, 1969A method is described with which it is possible to measure locomotor activity and food intake simultaneously in the same rat or other small animal. From a study of a number of psychomotorstimulant drugs and anorectic agents it may be concluded that locomotorstimulation and appetite-suppression are two different effects that may or may not characterize ...

Cocaine-induced locomotor activity in rats
Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior, 1991Rats were injected SC or IP with a dose of cocaine at 20 mg/kg twice daily or saline (2 ml/kg) for 15 consecutive doses. Horizontal (including ambulatory and repetitive activity) and ambulatory locomotor activities were assessed following the first (acute) and the 15th (chronic) injections. Total locomotor activity (area under curve, AUC) following the

Altered locomotor activity in neuropsychiatric patients
Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry, 1986Movement was monitored continuously for 24-48 hours in representative neuropsychiatric patients, using a wrist-worn portable piezoelectric activity monitor with solid-state memory. Striking differences were observed in both circadian and more rapid (ultradian) rhythms between these patients and normal controls of a similar age.

Octopamine and locomotor activity of rats
Psychopharmacology, 1983Intracerebroventricular administration of P-octopamine (OA) had opposite effects on locomotor activity depending on whether or not the rats were subjected to uncontrollable electric shocks. In unshocked rats, OA produced a large decrease in locomotor activity, but when the rats were subjected to unsignalled and uncontrollable electric shocks, a ...

Masking of locomotor activity in hamsters
Journal of Comparative Physiology A: Sensory, Neural, and Behavioral Physiology, 1999The inhibition of locomotion by light (masking) was investigated in Syrian hamsters. When 1-h pulses of light were presented in the early night, activity was strongly suppressed by irradiances of about 1 lx or greater. Ultradian light-dark cycles were used as another way to study masking.

Neuropharmacology of light-induced locomotor activation
Neuropharmacology, 2015Presentation of non-aversive light stimuli for several seconds was found to reliably induce locomotor activation and exploratory-like activity. Light-induced locomotor activity (LIA) can be considered a convenient simple model to study sensory-motor activation.

Neuroactive steroids modulate crustacean locomotor activity
Neuroscience Letters, 2001We examined the effects of neuroactive steroids known to modulate gamma-aminobutyric acid(A) (GABA)(A) receptor activity, on locomotor activity in a submerged circular open-field apparatus. Juvenile male lobsters, Homarus americanus, were treated with a single administration of an agonist, 3alpha-hydroxy-5alpha-pregnan-20-one (allopregnanolone, 3alpha ...
