PGC-1α affects aging-related changes in muscle and motor function by modulating specific exercise-mediated changes in old mice [PDF]

, 2018
The age-related impairment in muscle function results in a drastic decline in motor coordination and mobility in elderly individuals. Regular physical activity is the only efficient intervention to prevent and treat this age-associated degeneration ...

Muscle Synergies Reliability in the Power Clean Exercise

Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology, 2020
Muscle synergy extraction has been utilized to investigate muscle coordination in human movement, namely in sports. The reliability of the method has been proposed, although it has not been assessed previously during a complex sportive task.

Testing rTMS-Induced Neuroplasticity: A Single Case Study of Focal Hand Dystonia [PDF]

, 2018
Focal hand dystonia in musicians is a neurological motor disorder in which aberrant plasticity is caused by excessive repetitive use. This work's purposes were to induce plasticity changes in a dystonic musician through five daily thirty-minute sessions ...

Muscle synergies in neuroscience and robotics: from input-space to task-space perspectives [PDF]

, 2013
In this paper we review the works related to muscle synergies that have been carried-out in neuroscience and control engineering. In particular, we refer to the hypothesis that the central nervous system (CNS) generates desired muscle contractions by ...

Teff Yield and Nutrient Uptake Partitioning During Prolonged Waterlogging: A Preliminary Greenhouse Study

Plant-Environment Interactions
There is a lack of studies examining the effects of prolonged waterlogging on both yield and nutrient uptake partitioning in teff. A greenhouse study was conducted to assess the impact of different durations of waterlogging on teff's growth, yield ...
