Dysphagia in these patients, decreases quality of life and increases a risk of dehydration and aspiration pneumonia. These complications are a common cause of death and morbidity in late multiple sclerosis. The aim of this research was to examine the effects of thermal-tactile s...
متن کاملCognitive motor control: spatial and temporal aspects.
Cognitive motor control refers to processes that blend cognitive and motor functions in a seamless, interwoven fashion. Such functions evolve in space and time at various levels of complexity. This article focuses on conceptual issues regarding spatial and temporal aspects of motor control as well as on methods suitable for extracting information from neuronal ensembles.
متن کاملNeural aspects of cognitive motor control.
Traditionally, motor and cognitive functions were studied separately; however, the investigation of processes at the interface between cognition and action has become more and more popular recently. Typical research goals include the identification of the processes involved using experimental psychological methods, and understanding the neural mechanisms underlying these processes using neuroph...
متن کاملVertebrogenic dysphagia and gait disturbance mimicking motor neuron disease.
A 60 year old man was admitted with a 1–2 year history of increasing dysphagia causing weight loss and a 5–10 year history of progressive gait disturbance with stiVness and muscle twitches in both legs. Urgency micturition had recently developed, which was ascribed to the patient’s known hypertrophy of the prostate. Except for prostatism and lumbago, his medical history was unremarkable. Althou...
متن کاملCognitive and Psychiatric Aspects of Parkinson’s Disease
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder affecting a variety of brain structures. Its prevalence in the general population is around 0.3% and increases considerably with age (de Lau & Breteler, 2006). The median age of onset is 60 years and the incidence is equal in both sexes (Katzenschlager et al., 2008). While initially symptoms are subtle severe disability often requiring pe...
