Primates have been evolving for over 50 million years. At some point, humans made an unusually large evolutionary leap, giving rise to abilities like the creation of tools, intricate art and complex language. The neuronal synapse, a key player in information processing brain plasticity, has largely ignored as potential factor this process. Here we used genomic databases ancestral hominins compare expression levels 995 genes expressed human nervous system among archaic (6 Neanderthal, 2...
Background/Aims: To compare the effects of motor imagery and virtual reality techniques through Fugl Meyer Assessment scale in post-stroke individuals. Methods: The volunteers were allocated into three groups: control group without intervention, but receiving conventional therapy (control group); a that received programme (motor (virtual group). Upper Extremity Scale was evaluation method adopted. Findings: There significant differences between intragroup comparison (P=0.005) (P=0.000). no...
The purpose of this study was to analyze and compare intra intergroup the immediate effect auricular LR8 systemic acupuncture on electromyographic activity trapezius with trigger points. This is an experimental clinical trial; 40 people were split in 4 distinct groups (n = 10): GI mustard seed application acupoint; GII bilateral needle GIII combination techniques; GIV/Control Group acupoint not linked muscle tension. EMG used assess contraction for 5 seconds during resting time isometric...
Motor imagery corresponds to the mental practice of simulating visual and kinesthetic aspects a given motor task. This shares similar neural substrate correlated temporal scale with execution. Besides that, it can lead performance improvements in actual execution imagined Therefore is important understand functional differences equivalences between To tackle that we employed finger-tapping serial reaction time task two groups participants, Execution (n=10) (n=10). The sequence stimuli...
