Modulation of Stretch Reflexes of the Finger Flexors by Sensory Feedback from the Proximal Upper Limb Poststroke [PDF]
, 2006 Neural coupling of proximal and distal upper limb segments may have functional implications in the recovery of hemiparesis after stroke. The goal of the present study was to investigate whether the stretch reflex response magnitude of spastic finger ...

Strategies to augment volitional and reflex function may improve locomotor capacity following incomplete spinal cord injury [PDF]
, 2018 Many studies highlight the remarkable plasticity demonstrated by spinal circuits following an incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI). Such plasticity can contribute to improvements in volitional motor recovery, such as walking function, although similar ...

Interactions between stretch and startle reflexes produce task-appropriate rapid postural reactions
Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2015 Neural pathways underpinning startle reflex and limb stretch reflexes evolved independently and have served vastly different purposes. In their most basic form, the pathways responsible for these reflex responses are relatively simple processing units ...

Visual Recovery Reflects Cortical MeCP2 Sensitivity in Rett Syndrome
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Rett syndrome (RTT) is a devastating neurodevelopmental disorder with developmental regression affecting motor, sensory, and cognitive functions. Sensory disruptions contribute to the complex behavioral and cognitive difficulties and represent an important target for therapeutic interventions.

The Effects of Acute Lipopolysaccharide Induced Inflammation on Spinal Cord Excitability [PDF]
, 2018 Peripheral inflammation alters the excitability of dorsal horn interneurons and increases flexor reflex strength (Dubner & Ruda, 1992); however, its effect on the spinal stretch reflex is not well understood. The stretch reflex is a muscle contraction in

Modulations of stretch reflex by altering visuomotor contexts
Frontiers in Human NeuroscienceVarious functional modulations of the stretch reflex help to stabilize actions, but the computational mechanism behind its context-dependent tuning remains unclear.

Prediction Model for Etiologic Differentiation of Isolated Vestibular Syndrome in Emergency Settings
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to develop and validate a predictive model for differentiating central from peripheral etiologies in patients with isolated vestibular syndrome (VS). Methods In this multicenter retrospective cohort study, 506 patients with isolated VS from five hospitals were divided into derivation (n = 301) and validation (n = 205)
