Effects of ankle-foot orthoses on functional motor performance in a child with spastic diplegia.
A pilot case study examining the effects of inhibitive ankle-foot orthoses on functional motor performance in a child with spastic diplegia is presented. Both qualitative and quantitative changes occurred, lending support to the efficacy of inhibitive orthoses in improving motor performance in children with cerebral palsy.
متن کاملFunctional Plasticity in Somatosensory Cortex Supports Motor Learning by Observing
An influential idea in neuroscience is that the sensory-motor system is activated when observing the actions of others [1, 2]. This idea has recently been extended to motor learning, in which observation results in sensory-motor plasticity and behavioral changes in both motor and somatosensory domains [3-9]. However, it is unclear how the brain maps visual information onto motor circuits for le...
متن کاملPrimary Somatosensory and Motor Cortex
Figure 1. The gross anatomy of the brain is shown from a lateral (a) and medial (b) view. The wrinkled outer surface that covers the majority of the brain is the cerebral cortex. In panel (a) labels illustrate some of the areas of localized function including primary motor cortex on the precentral gyrus (M1) and primary somatosensory cortex on the postcentral gyrus (S1). Other primary sensory c...
متن کاملThe Relationship of Anatomical and Functional Connectivity to Resting-State Connectivity in Primate Somatosensory Cortex
Studies of resting-state activity in the brain have provoked critical questions about the brain's functional organization, but the biological basis of this activity is not clear. Specifically, the relationships between interregional correlations in resting-state measures of activity, neuronal functional connectivity and anatomical connectivity are much debated. To investigate these relationship...
متن کاملFunctional connectivity between somatosensory and motor brain areas predicts individual differences in motor learning by observing.
Action observation can facilitate the acquisition of novel motor skills; however, there is considerable individual variability in the extent to which observation promotes motor learning. Here we tested the hypothesis that individual differences in brain function or structure can predict subsequent observation-related gains in motor learning. Subjects underwent an anatomical MRI scan and resting...
