BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Limb coordination is an element of motor control that is frequently disrupted following spinal cord injury (SCI). The authors assessed intralimb coordination in subjects with SCI following a 12-week program combining body weight support, electrical stimulation, and treadmill training. SUBJECTS Fourteen subjects with long-standing (mean time post-SCI=70 months, range=12-...

Objective: To investigate how learning induced increases in stability on a syncopation task are manifest in the dynamics of cortical activity. Method: Magnetoencephalography was recorded from 143 sensors (CTF Systems, Inc). A pre-training procedure determined the critical frequency (Fc) for each subject (n ˆ 4). Subjects either syncopated or synchronized to a metronome that increased in frequen...
