Ocular motor function in motor neuron disease
Neurology, 1992We studied ocular motor function in 34 patients with motor neuron disease (MND) and in 18 age-matched controls. This included the latency, accuracy, and amplitude-velocity relationships of saccades. We also examined ocular pursuit, the slow phases of optokinetic nystagmus, and the ability to suppress the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) with visual ...

inclusion of material which may be trivial or irrelevant. This article shows my prejudice in favour of articles which pose or attempt to answer the question, "How does it work?" It also reflects my ignorance of much of the background required to deal critically with the many studies of 'motility' in healthy or diseased humans; perhaps this will be ...

Oral motor function in obesity
Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2022AbstractBackgroundObese individuals may have impaired oral sensory functioning and abnormal oral motor function, a consequence of fat deposition in muscles.ObjectiveTo evaluate the oral motor function in obese individuals.Material and MethodsThree observational cross‐sectional studies were performed.

Motor functions of the Broca’s region
Brain and Language, 2004Broca's region in the dominant cerebral hemisphere is known to mediate the production of language but also contributes to comprehension. This region evolved only in humans and is constituted of Brodmann's areas 44 and 45 in the inferior frontal gyrus. There is, however, evidence that Broca's region overlaps, at least in part, with the ventral premotor ...

Abstract Voluntary movements are preceded by slow brain activity, visible in EEG as the Bereitschaftspotential (the readiness potential), and in MEG as the readiness field. These slow shifts can begin a few seconds before movement onset in the primary motor cortex and in the premotor areas.

Motor functions of the parietal lobe
Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2005There is now general agreement that the posterior parietal cortex is part of the motor system. New data have confirmed its fundamental role in visuomotor transformations. Most interestingly, recent data showed that the inferior parietal lobule codes motor acts (such as grasping) in a specific way according to the action in which they are embedded. This

Myosins: matching functions with motors
Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1998It is an exciting time to be studying myosins and their roles in the function of cells and organisms. Past efforts aimed at finding new members of this family have now given way to a focus on identifying individual functions for each motor protein. These actin-based motors are now known to be intimately involved in the following processes: neurosensory

Treatment of Functional Motor Disorders
Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2014For the treatment of functional motor disorder, we recommend a three-stage approach. Firstly, patients must be assessed and given an unambiguous diagnosis, with an explanation that helps them understand that they have a genuine disorder, with the potential for reversibility. A key ingredient is allowing the patients to describe all of their symptoms as

Abstract It has become increasingly evident that motor features are not only common in patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) but that their presence may also provide insight into the natural course and possible heterogeneity of this disease (Table 15.1).

Functional imaging of the motor system
Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 1994Recent studies of the motor system using functional imaging have served to emphasize the complexity of the control of even relatively simple movements. The results of these studies suggest that the behavioral context of the movement is an important determinant of functional activation within cortical motor areas.
