Spastic paresis: impaired spinal reflexes and intact motor programs.
Leg muscle EMG responses evoked by short treadmill acceleration impulses applied during stance were analysed in patients with spastic hemiparesis. The compensatory reactions on the unaffected side consisted of a diphasic pattern of leg muscle activation. The first response could best be described as a polysynaptic spinal stretch reflex response. This response was absent on the spastic side, exc...
متن کاملJuvenile Paresis in One Twin.
Introduction IT is now widely accepted that congenital syphilis is an infection that is acquired in utero from the mother, usually in the later months of pregnancy. It is not perhaps so widely recognized that in the case of twin pregnancies it is not unusual for the twins to suffer the luetic infection unequally. One twin may be born healthy, the other diseased; or if both are diseased the symp...
متن کاملArm and leg paresis as outcome predictors in stroke rehabilitation.
I used leg and arm paresis to predict outcome measured as extremity function in a prospective study of 75 consecutive hemiplegic patients admitted to an inpatient stroke rehabilitation unit. In each patient, extremity paresis was quantified according to the five-point scoring system advised by the Medical Research Council, upper extremity function was quantified using the Barthel Index subscore...
متن کاملA Successful Surgical Approach for Treatment of the Spastic Paresis in two Calves
muscular disease which affects the hind limb in young cattle (Baird et al., 1974; Harper, 1993). It is recorded in Holstein, Freisian and other breeds (Baird et al., 1974; Harper, 1993). This disease resulted from the contraction of the gastrocnemius and superficial flexor digital muscles and in some cases, the biceps femoris, semitendinosus, semimembranosus, quadriceps and abductor muscles (Wi...
متن کاملMicroarray gene expression profiling of neural tissues in bovine spastic paresis
BACKGROUND Bovine Spastic Paresis (BSP) is a neuromuscular disorder which affects both male and female cattle. BSP is characterized by spastic contraction and overextension of the gastrocnemious muscle of one or both limbs and is associated with a scarce increase in body weight. This disease seems to be caused by an autosomal and recessive gene, with incomplete penetration, although no genes cl...
