Is there a correlation between functional recovery of manual dexterity after motor cortex lesion and initial motor learning slope in the intact state? [PDF]

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience
A cohort of 13 adult macaques offered a unique opportunity to collect over several years manual dexterity data, from an initial learning phase in intact animals to a terminal phase of functional recovery after unilateral lesion of primary motor cortex ...

Manual Dexterity in Schizophrenia—A Neglected Clinical Marker? [PDF]

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2017
Impaired manual dexterity is commonly observed in schizophrenia. However, a quantitative description of key sensorimotor components contributing to impaired dexterity is lacking. Whether the key components of dexterity are differentially affected and how

Improvement in Fine Manual Dexterity in Children with Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 2 after Nusinersen Injection: A Case Series

Children, 2021
Although nusinersen has been demonstrated to improve motor function in patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), no studies have investigated its effect on fine manual dexterity.

Young basketball players have better manual dexterity performance than sportsmen and non-sportsmen of the same age: a cross-sectional study

Scientific Reports, 2023
Manual dexterity is a key skill in motor development. There are conflicting studies on the influence of sports practice on this skill and on which type of sport trains this ability the most in youth.

Spatial Instability during Precision Grip–Lift in Children with Poor Manual Dexterity

Brain Sciences, 2022
Although children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) show impaired precision grip control due to a sensory-motor integration deficit, their spatial instability (such as changes in force direction and object roll during a precision grip task ...

Manual Dexterity is not Related to Media Viewing but is Related to Perceptual Bias in School-Age Children

Brain Sciences, 2020
Although the media can have both negative and positive effects on children’s cognitive and motor functions, its influence on their perceptual bias and manual dexterity is unclear.

Influence of Stochastic Resonance on Manual Dexterity in Children With Developmental Coordination Disorder: A Double-Blind Interventional Study

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Background: There is increasing evidence that the stochastic resonance (SR) phenomenon provided by subthreshold mechanical noise stimulation improves the sensory-motor system. However, the effect of SR on children with developmental coordination disorder
