Long-Term Electromyographic Monitoring of the Stapedius Reflex via Implanted Electrodes in Sheep: Toward Objective Autonomous Cochlear Implant Fitting [PDF]

open access: yesSensors
Objective fitting measures offer a means to circumvent the subjectivity of cochlear implant programming, with the stapedius reflex representing one robust predictor of the maximum comfortable loudness level.

What is the contribution of voluntary and reflex processes to sensorimotor control of balance?

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
The contribution to balance of spinal and transcortical processes including the long-latency reflex is well known. The control of balance has been modelled previously as a continuous, state feedback controller representing, long-latency reflexes. However,

Intervention effects maintenance: 6-month randomized controlled trial follow-up of standard and reflexive pelvic floor muscle trainingAJOG Global Reports at a Glance

open access: yesAJOG Global Reports, 2022
BACKGROUND: To date, the focus of pelvic floor muscle training for women suffering from stress urinary incontinence has been on voluntary contractions although involuntary pelvic floor muscle contractions are crucial to guarantee continence in high ...

Heatwave-Like Events During Development Are Sufficient to Impair Bumblebee Worker Responses to Sensory Stimuli

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Heatwaves are increasingly common globally and are known to have detrimental impacts on animal morphology and behaviour. These impacts can be severe, especially if heatwaves occur during development, even on animals that can regulate the temperature of ...

Does the Integration of Primary Refl ex Schemas According to Masgutova’s Neurosensorimotor Refl ex Integration Improve Functioning and Quality of Life Among Children with Spectrum of Foetal Alcohol Disorders? [PDF]

open access: yesRehabilitacja Medyczna, 2023
Introduction: Foetal Alcohol Disorder Spectrum (FASD) is an incurable, non-genetic disorder that can occur in children whose mothers consumed alcohol during pregnancy. Patients with FASD are characterised by extensive damage to the central nervous system,

Monosynaptic facilitation of motoneurons innervating intrinsic hand muscles mediated by group Ia afferents from the extensor carpi radialis in humans

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2022
The projection pattern of low‐threshold afferents from the extensor carpi radialis (ECR) to motoneurons supplying intrinsic hand muscles was investigated using the post‐stimulus time‐histogram (PSTH) and electromyogram‐averaging (EMG‐A) methods ...

EMG-Free Monitorization of the Acoustic Startle Reflex with a Mobile Phone: Implications of Sound Parameters with Posture Related Responses

open access: yesSensors, 2020
(1) Background: Acute acoustic (sound) stimulus prompts a state of defensive motivation in which unconscious muscle responses are markedly enhanced in humans.

Sampling Reflex as a New Manometric Marker in the Diagnosis of Defecation Disorders - Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Coloproctology, 2023
Introduction Distension of the rectum wall and subsequent momentary relaxation of the internal anal sphincter (IAS) trigger a reflex called the rectoanal inhibitory reflex (RAIR).

Motor Unit Discharge Patterns in Response to Focal Tendon Vibration of the Lower Limb in Cats and Humans

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2022
High-frequency vibration of the tendon provides potent activation of Ia afferents time-locked to the stimulation frequency and provides excitatory ionotropic activation of homonymous motor pools. In cats, the evoked motor unit discharge is constrained to
