Finger enslaving in the dominant and non-dominant hand. [PDF]

Hum Mov Sci, 2014
During single-finger force production, the non-instructed fingers unintentionally produce force (finger enslaving). In this study, enslaving effects were compared between the dominant and non-dominant hands. The test consisted of a series of maximum voluntary contractions with different finger combinations.

Left handed non-dominant hand phacoemulsification [PDF]

British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2003
We appreciate the commendable work by Kageyama et al , which was published in the BJO .1 We have also studied the results of left handed non-dominant hand phacoemulsification prospectively, performed in left eyes of 29 patients with an immature senile cataract and against the rule astigmatism. Phacoemulsification was performed by an experienced surgeon

Using the Non-Dominant Hand for Selection in 3D [PDF]

IEEE Symposium on 3D User Interfaces, 2006. 3DUI 2006., 2006
Although 3D virtual environments are designed to provide the user with an intuitive interface to view or manipulate highly complex data, current solutions are still not ideal. In order to make the interaction as natural as possible, metaphors are used to allow the users to apply their everyday knowledge in the generated environment.

Inspiration‐induced vasoconstrictive responses in dominant versus non‐dominant hands [PDF]

Clinical Physiology and Functional Imaging, 2005
SummarySingle rapid and deep inspirations (inspiratory gasps, IG) result in arteriolar vasoconstriction with concomitant transient decreases in skin blood flow that are most prominent in fingers and toes. Vascular responses (inspiratory gasp responses, IGR) are determined as the maximum percentage reduction in blood flow and have been used to assess ...

Induction of cortical plasticity and improved motor performance following unilateral and bilateral transcranial direct current stimulation of the primary motor cortex [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive technique that modulates the excitability of neurons within the primary motor cortex (M1). Research shows that anodal-tDCS applied over the non-dominant M1 (i.e.

Specialization in interlimb transfer between dominant and non-dominant hand skills. [PDF]

J Phys Ther Sci, 2015
[Purpose] This study aimed to confirm the specialization of interlimb transfer in occupationally embedded tasks between dominant and non-dominant hands. [Subjects] Twelve neurologically intact participants were recruited. [Methods] The participants were divided into two training groups and performed training with their dominant or non-dominant hand ...
