The purpose of this investigation was to characterize the discharge of neurons in the rostral area 4 motor cortex (MI) during performance of a precision grip task. Three monkeys were trained to grasp an object between the thumb and index finger and to lift and hold it stationary for 2-2.5 s within a narrow position window. The grip and load forces and the vertical displacement of the object wer...
BACKGROUND Animal experiments in recent years have shown that attenuation of motor responses by general anesthetics is mediated at least partly by spinal mechanisms. Less is known about the relative potency of anesthetic drugs in suppressing cortical and spinal electrophysiological responses in vivo in humans, particularly those, but not only those, connected with motor responses. Therefore, we...
Background: A nerve conduction velocity test measures how quickly electrical impulses move along a nerve in order to exclude or detect muscle disorders. The objective of this study was to study the pattern of electrophysiological variables in motor nerves for detection of neuropathy. Methods: This experimental study was carried out in the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Jinn...
A comprehensive electrophysiological study has been made of the extensor digitorum brevis muscle and its motor innervation in 17 patients with dystrophia myotonica. The mean contraction and half-relaxation times were prolonged in the isometric twitches of dystrophic muscles. Decremental responses to repetitive motor nerve stimulation were found in two patients. All the terminal latency measurem...
The objective of this study was to investigate whether eye-hand coupling was preserved or not in PD. We studied predictive saccade performance during hand pointing in six Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with asymmetrical motor signs compared to nine age-matched healthy subjects. The motor responses (saccades and hand pointing) were elicited under open loop conditions (without vision of the ha...

This study correlated morphologic abnormalities of idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) with the severity of CTS using 3-T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The relationship of the severity of CTS and the cross-sectional area of the median nerve (CSA) was assessed at several levels. Seventy wrists of 35 patients (27 women and 8 men) with unilateral idiopathic CTS underwent nerve conduction s...
The purpose of this study is to evaluate prospectively the sensitivities of conventional and new electrophysiological techniques and to investigate their relationship with the body mass index (BMI) in a population of patients suspected of having carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). In this study, 165 hands of 92 consecutive patients (81 female, 11 male) with clinical diagnosis of CTS were compared to ...
Brain regions related to saccadic control are affected by Parkinson's disease (PD) pathology and a relationship between abnormal saccades and cognitive features of PD has been suggested. We measured the latency of visually-evoked saccades, and correlated best-fit parameters in a LATER neuronal decision model μ and σ (mean and SD of the distribution of reciprocal latency, i.e. speed of response)...
Previous work using bone marrow passaged SIVmac239 (simian immunodeficiency virus) has shown that macrophage tropic strains of this virus enter the rhesus macaque brain early following inoculation (Sharma et al, 1992; Desrosiers et al, 1991; Zhu et al, 1995; and Narayan et al, 1997). As part of an effort to more fully characterize the extent of neurologic impairment associated with SIV infectio...
