Altered excitability of small cutaneous nerve fibers during cooling assessed with the perception threshold tracking technique

BMC Neuroscience, 2019
Background There is a need for new approaches to increase the knowledge of the membrane excitability of small nerve fibers both in healthy subjects, as well as during pathological conditions.

Conrad’s Neuroplasticity

Modernism/modernity, 2016
“Our brain is plastic and we do not know it” says French philosopher Catherine Malabou. This article argues that Joseph Conrad knew it. In the process it suggests that contemporary discoveries in the neurosciences about the “neuroplasticity” of the human brain can be supplemented by tracing the aesthetic and conceptual implications of the plastic ...

Physical activity and neuroplasticity in neurodegenerative disorders: a comprehensive review of exercise interventions, cognitive training, and AI applications

Frontiers in Neuroscience
This review aimed to elucidate the mechanisms through which (i) physical activity (PA) enhances neuroplasticity and cognitive function in neurodegenerative disorders, and (ii) identify specific PA interventions for improving cognitive rehabilitation ...

The Combined Influences of Exercise, Diet and Sleep on Neuroplasticity

Frontiers in Psychology, 2022
Neuroplasticity refers to the brain’s ability to undergo structural and functional adaptations in response to experience, and this process is associated with learning, memory and improvements in cognitive function.

Neuroplastic Changes Following Brain Ischemia and their Contribution to Stroke Recovery: Novel Approaches in Neurorehabilitation [PDF]

, 2017
Ischemic damage to the brain triggers substantial reorganization of spared areas and pathways, which is associated with limited, spontaneous restoration of function.

The Mechanisms Behind Rapid Antidepressant Effects of Ketamine: A Systematic Review With a Focus on Molecular Neuroplasticity

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2022
The mechanism of action underlying ketamine’s rapid antidepressant effects in patients with depression, both suffering from major depressive disorder (MDD) and bipolar disorder (BD), including treatment resistant depression (TRD), remains unclear. Of the

Electroconvulsive therapy mediates neuroplasticity of white matter microstructure in major depression. [PDF]

, 2014
Whether plasticity of white matter (WM) microstructure relates to therapeutic response in major depressive disorder (MDD) remains uncertain. We examined diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) correlates of WM structural connectivity in patients receiving ...

Brain Neuroplasticity Leveraging Virtual Reality and Brain–Computer Interface Technologies

Italian National Conference on Sensors
This study explores neuroplasticity through the use of virtual reality (VR) and brain–computer interfaces (BCIs). Neuroplasticity is the brain’s ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections in response to learning, experience, and ...
