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 ...

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 ...

Motor function and disability in the dementias
International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry, 2000Epidemiological and neuropathological series have identified three predominant dementing processes; Alzheimer's disease (AD), vascular dementia (VaD) and dementia associated with Lewy bodies (termed Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD) in this paper). While each has its own distinguishing features and by definition all impact upon day to day functioning,

Gastric motor and sensory function
Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2005Abnormalities of gastric sensory and motor function are considered key players in the pathogenesis of upper gastrointestinal symptoms in functional dyspepsia and in gastroparesis. This review summarizes recent progress in our understanding of gastric sensory and motor function in health and in disease.Although assessment of gastric emptying rate is ...

Motor Function of Unconventional Myosin
2003Myosins are motor proteins that interact with actin filaments and convert energy from ATP hydrolysis into mechanical force. In addition to the well-characterized conventional, filament forming, two-headed myosin II of muscle and non-muscle cells, a number of myosin-like proteins have recently been discovered.

The Perceptual - Motor Function
2020In the light of the new scientific findings, human movement cannot be understood or studied, without taking into account the perceptual processes and their role over cognitive integration in the action understanding and organization. Starting from the Theory of the Functional System up to the recent concept of the Mirror Neuron System, it has been ...

Controlling and Learning Motor Functions
2018Effective and adaptive motor functions are important for living beings and developing computational and learning mechanisms for roving robots is a crucial aspect in biorobotics. In this chapter we report a new architecture for motor learning to be applied in insect-like walking robots.

Aging and Motor Learning of a Functional Motor Task
Physical & Occupational Therapy In Geriatrics, 2003Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the ability of older and younger adults to learn a functional motor task following a single session of directed practice. The task under investigation was the use of a standard walker to get into the passenger side of a four-door sedan using a specific procedure.Methods: Thirty younger community ...
