Investigating the neuromechanical control of healthy gait modulation and pathological gaits observed in cerebral palsy using neuromuscular simulations

Andrea Di Russo

Locomotion is based on a sophisticated interaction among the environment, the musculoskeletal system, the spinal cord, and the brain locomotor areas. Quality of life is strongly related to the proper capability of this movement. However, many pathologies, ...

SiliFish: A desktop application to model swimming behavior in developing zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Yann Roussel

SiliFish is an open-source desktop application tomodel and study zebrafish swimming. Here, we explain how to define the general parameters of the model, define cell populations, place them within the spinal cord, and define their projections. We explain ho ...

Noninvasive theta-burst stimulation of the human striatum enhances striatal activity and motor skill learning

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Takuya Morishita, Maximilian Jonas Wessel, Chang-Hyun Park, Elena Beanato, Traian Popa, Pierre Theopistos Vassiliadis, Pablo Maceira Elvira, Fabienne Windel, Pauline Menoud, Esra Neufeld

The stimulation of deep brain structures has thus far only been possible with invasive methods. Transcranial electrical temporal interference stimulation (tTIS) is a novel, noninvasive technology that might overcome this limitation. The initial proof-of-co ...

Prediction of post-stroke motor recovery benefits from measures of sub-acute widespread network damages

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maria Giulia Preti, Elvira Pirondini

Rivier et al. report that global measures of brain connectivity estimated by introducing virtual lesions in healthy structural connectomes significantly increase the accuracy of motor recovery prediction in stroke patients when added to focal and clinical ...

Human-machine interface for two-dimensional steering control with the auricular muscles

Daniel Jose Lins Leal Pinheiro, Silvestro Micera, Solaiman Shokur

Human-machine interfaces (HMIs) can be used to decode a user's motor intention to control an external device. People that suffer from motor disabilities, such as spinal cord injury, can benefit from the uses of these interfaces. While many solutions can be ...

Mechanisms underlying reinforcement learning of motor skills

Pierre Theopistos Vassiliadis

Motor learning allows animals, including human beings, to acquire skills that are es-sential for efficient interactions with the environment. This ability to learn new motor skills is of great practical relevance for daily-life activities (such as when lea ...

Arterial pulse wave modeling and analysis for vascular-age studies: a review from VascAgeNet

Vasiliki Bikia

Arterial pulse waves (PWs) such as blood pressure and photoplethysmogram (PPG) signals contain a wealth of information on the cardiovascular (CV) system that can be exploited to assess vascular age and identify individuals at elevated CV risk. We review th ...

A digital bridge between brain and spinal cord restores walking after paralysis

Grégoire Courtine, Jocelyne Bloch

Spinal-cord injury interrupts communication between the brain and spinal cord, leading to paralysis. An implant that decodes the brain signals that control movements and drives electrical stimulation of the spinal cord re-establishes this communication, en ...

Combination of Neurotechnologies Towards Personalized Neurorehabilitation for Stroke Patients

Claudia Bigoni

"Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages" is the third sustainable development goal for the United Nations Agenda of 2030. This doctoral thesis fully embodied this objective by targeting stroke, a leading cause of death and disabili ...

Modulation of Pulsatile Left Ventricular Afterload by Renal Denervation in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Stamatia Zoi Pagoulatou

Background:Arterial stiffening contributes to hemodynamic derangements in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). We sought to investigate the impact of renal denervation on pulsatile left ventricular loading in patients with HFpEF and hype ...

On the similarity between aortic and carotid pressure diastolic decay: a mathematical modelling study

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Vasiliki Bikia, Georgios Rovas, Sokratis Anagnostopoulos

Aortic diastolic pressure decay (DPD) has been shown to have considerable pathophysiological relevance in the assessment of vascular health, as it is significantly affected by arterial stiffening. Nonetheless, the aortic pressure waveform is rarely availab ...

Reaching an understanding of cortico-medullary control of forelimb behaviors

Mackenzie Mathis, Thomas Trevelyan James Sainsbury

How the neocortex modulates hindbrain and spinal circuits is of fundamental interest for understanding mo-tor control and adaptive behaviors. New work from Yang, Kanodia, and Arber demonstrates that there is an exquisite anatomical organization and functio ...
