Mirror Box Training in Hemiplegic Stroke Patients Affects Body Representation
The brain integrates multisensory inputs coming from the body (i.e., proprioception, tactile sensations) and the world that surrounds it (e.g., visual information). In this way, it is possible to build supra-modal and coherent mental representations of our own body, in order to process sensory events and to plan movements and actions in space. Post-stroke acquired motor deficits affect the abil...
متن کاملconstrains the effects of tool use on body representations
What factors constrain whether tool use modulates the user’s body representations? To date, studies on representational plasticity following tool use have primarily focused on the act of using the tool. Here, we investigated whether the tool’s morphology also serves to constrain plasticity. In two experiments, we varied whether the tool was morphologically similar to a target body part (Experim...
متن کاملAcute Effects of Loaded Whole Body Vibration Training on Performance
BACKGROUND The application of whole body vibration (WBV) as a warm-up scheme has been receiving an increasing interest among practitioners. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine the effect of loaded and unloaded WBV on countermovement jump, speed and agility. PATIENTS AND METHODS Twenty-one healthy male college football players (age: 20.14 ± 1.65 years; body height: 179.9 ± 8.34...
متن کاملEffects of body temperature during exercise training on myocardial adaptations.
This study determined the role of body temperature during chronic exercise on myocardial stress proteins and antioxidant enzymes as well as functional recovery after an ischemic insult. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were exercised for 3, 6, or 9 wk in a 23 degrees C room (3WK, 6WK, and 9WK, respectively) or in a 4-8 degrees C environment with wetted fur (3WKC, 6WKC, and 9WKC, respectively). The cold...
متن کاملTool-use induces morphological updating of the body schema
imagery and even time perception (see Supplemental references in the Supplemental data available online), there is no evidence that tool-use modifies the body schema. We hypothesized that, by modifying the somatosensory body schema, the use of a 40 cm-long mechanical grabber would affect the kinematics of subsequent grasping movements performed without the tool. Tool-use consisted of handling t...
