A parallel-group, multicenter randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, phase 2/3, clinical trial to test the efficacy of pyridostigmine bromide at low doses to reduce mortality or invasive mechanical ventilation in adults with severe SARS-CoV-2 infection: the Pyridostigmine In Severe COvid-19 (PISCO) trial protocol

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2020
Background Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, the causative agent of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), may lead to severe systemic inflammatory response, pulmonary damage, and even acute respiratory distress ...

Electrophysiological evidence of subclinical trigeminal dysfunction in patients with COVID-19 and smell impairment: A pilot study

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
BackgroundSmell and taste disturbances are among the most frequent neurological symptoms in patients with COVID-19. A concomitant impairment of the trigeminal nerve has been suggested in subjects with olfactory dysfunction, although it has not been ...

Corticospinal tract insult alters GABAergic circuitry in the mammalian spinal cord

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013
During perinatal development, corticospinal tract (CST) projections into the spinal cord help refine spinal circuitry. Although the normal developmental processes that are controlled by the arrival of corticospinal input are becoming clear, little is ...

Reflex Inhibition of the Human Quadriceps in the Presence of Knee Joint Damage [PDF]

open access: yesPhysiotherapy, 1988
Quadriceps weakness can occur by atrophy and by reflex inhibition due to stimuli from a damaged knee joint. The mechanisms by which quadriceps weakness occurs are not understood enough to allow weakness to be prevented. The nature of reflex inhibition has been studied in patients undergoing arthrotomy and meniscectomy in order to find ways of ...
