Rationale, design and methods for a randomised and controlled trial of the impact of virtual reality games on motor competence, physical activity, and mental health in children with developmental coordination disorder

BMC Public Health, 2011
Background A healthy start to life requires adequate motor development and physical activity participation. Currently 5-15% of children have impaired motor development without any obvious disorder.

Causative role of left aIPS in coding shared goals during human-avatar complementary joint actions [PDF]

, 2015
Successful motor interactions require agents to anticipate what a partner is doing in order to predictively adjust their own movements. Although the neural underpinnings of the ability to predict others' action goals have been well explored during ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Motor coordination and visual information processing in high school students at risk of developmental coordination disorder: Two year follow-up study

Tělesná Kultura, 2014
BACKGROUND: Developmental coordination disorder (DCD) in children is characterised by the execution being substantially below that expected given the individual's chronological age.

Collective effects in intra-cellular molecular motor transport: coordination, cooperation and competetion [PDF]

, 2006
Molecular motors do not work in isolation {\it in-vivo}. We highlight some of the coordinations, cooperations and competitions that determine the collective properties of molecular motors in eukaryotic cells.

Motor Coordination: Watching the brain think [PDF]

Current Biology, 1995
Recording from populations of neurons in motor areas of the cerebral cortex has brought us a step closer to understanding how we control the movement of our own bodies.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Effect of hippotherapy in the global motor coordination in individuals with Down Syndrome

Fisioterapia em Movimento
Introduction: Down syndrome (DS) of all genetic syndromes is the most common. In Hippotherapy, three-dimensional movements, provided by horse walking, awaken in the body of children with DS a large amount of sensory and neuromuscular stimuli, which ...

Exercise can improve physical self perceptions in adolescents with low motor competence [PDF]

, 2014
Adolescents with low motor competence have diminished perceptions of their physical self and tend to avoid physical activities. This study examined the outcomes of an exercise intervention that focused on improving aerobic fitness, strength, and self ...

Motility states in bidirectional cargo transport

, 2015
Intracellular cargos which are transported by molecular motors move stochastically along cytoskeleton filaments. In particular for bidirectionally transported cargos it is an open question whether the characteristics of their motion can result from pure ...
