Enhancement of Contralesional Motor Control Promotes Locomotor Recovery after Unilateral Brain Lesion
There have been controversies on the contribution of contralesional hemispheric compensation to functional recovery of the upper extremity after a unilateral brain lesion. Some studies have demonstrated that contralesional hemispheric compensation may be an important recovery mechanism. However, in many cases where the hemispheric lesion is large, this form of compensation is relatively limited...
متن کاملContralesional Brain–Computer Interface Control of a Powered Exoskeleton for Motor Recovery in Chronic Stroke Survivors
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE There are few effective therapies to achieve functional recovery from motor-related disabilities affecting the upper limb after stroke. This feasibility study tested whether a powered exoskeleton driven by a brain-computer interface (BCI), using neural activity from the unaffected cortical hemisphere, could affect motor recovery in chronic hemiparetic stroke survivors. Th...
متن کاملWheel-Running Modestly Promotes Functional Recovery after a Unilateral Cortical Lesion in Rats
BACKGROUND We aimed to determine whether early or delayed wheel-running (W) after a cortical lesion in rats influences functional recovery and protein expression involving synaptic plasticity. METHODS 57 rats were arranged in 4 groups: (1) Sham, (2) NMDA, (3) W-24 h or (4) W-72 h (W-24 h and W-72 h means wheel-running for 14 days starting day 1 or day 3 after NMDA lesion). NMDA produced a sta...
متن کاملComparison of Functional Recovery of Manual Dexterity after Unilateral Spinal Cord Lesion or Motor Cortex Lesion in Adult Macaque Monkeys
In relation to mechanisms involved in functional recovery of manual dexterity from cervical cord injury or from motor cortical injury, our goal was to determine whether the movements that characterize post-lesion functional recovery are comparable to original movement patterns or do monkeys adopt distinct strategies to compensate the deficits depending on the type of lesion? To this aim, data d...
متن کاملThe role of multiple contralesional motor areas for complex hand movements after internal capsular lesion.
Imaging techniques document enhanced activity in multiple motor areas of the damaged and contralesional (intact) hemisphere (CON-H) after stroke. In the subacute stage, increased activity within motor areas in the CON-H during simple movements of the affected hand has been shown to correlate with poorer motor outcome. For those patients in the chronic stage who recovered well, the functional re...
