How Listing's Law May Emerge from Neural Control of Reactive Saccades [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
We hypothesize that Listing's Law emerges as a result of two key properties of the saccadic sensory-motor system: 1) The visual sensory apparatus has a 2-D topology and 2) motor synergists are synchronized.

Function-Theoretic Explanation and the Search for Neural Mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A common kind of explanation in cognitive neuroscience might be called functiontheoretic: with some target cognitive capacity in view, the theorist hypothesizes that the system computes a well-defined function (in the mathematical ...

A Core Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy Syllabus for Physical Therapy Student Education

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Head, neck, and neuroanatomy are essential components of physical therapy education due to their broad clinical applications. Detailed syllabi exist for medical students, yet none have been developed for physical therapy. This study aimed to produce an International Federation of Associations of Anatomists core head, neck, and neuroanatomy ...

Active inference and the anatomy of oculomotion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Given that eye movement control can be framed as an inferential process, how are the requisite forces generated to produce anticipated or desired fixation?

Bilateral oculomotor ocular neuromyotonia: a case report

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2018
Background Ocular neuromyotonia (ONM) is characterized by episodic diplopia, which is usually triggered by prolonged eccentric gaze of the affected extraocular muscles.

Surgical approach to repair of traumatic avulsion and external herniation of the levator palpebrae superioris aponeurosis

open access: yesTrauma Case Reports, 2023
This report describes the unusual case and surgical repair of avulsion and external herniation of the levator palpebrae superioris (LPS) aponeurosis and attached muscle fibres associated with superior tarsal plate fracture in an 8-year-old Indigenous ...

Scalp‐negative medial temporal interictal epileptic discharges alter large‐scale brain networks: A simultaneous high‐density electroencephalographic and intracranial electroencephalographic study

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) observed on scalp electroencephalography (EEG) serve as a diagnostic hallmark of epilepsy. However, only a small fraction of IEDs recorded by intracranial EEG (iEEG) are detectable on the scalp; the vast majority remain invisible on scalp recordings.

A Subset of Palisade Endings Only in the Medial and Inferior Rectus Muscle in Monkey Contain Calretinin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Purpose: To further chemically characterize palisade endings in extraocular muscles in rhesus monkeys.Methods: Extraocular muscles of three rhesus monkeys were studied for expression of the calcium-binding protein calretinin (CR) in palisade endings and ...

A Comprehensive Review on the Management of III Nerve Palsy

open access: yesDelhi Journal of Ophthalmology, 2016
The third cranial nerve is a motor nerve chiefly involved in execution of movements of the eye. The paresis or paralysis of the one or more of these muscles due to oculomotor nerve palsy, leads to ptosis, anisocoria and ocular motility defects.

Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...
