prostaglandin £j (pge-^) and indomethacin, a nonstroidal antiinflammatory drug, were separately administered during ortliodontic tooth movement in rats. at the beginning, an orthodontic appliance was placed and activated in male albinos rats. in tlie first examination, the experimental group received submucosal injections of pge-y (10 mg/kg/day) near the first maxillary riglit molars, and alcoh...

understanding the essence of movement and knowing how it exists in the physical world, is considered one of the most important philosophical issues in which wise men were occupied with, whether in the greek era or the islamic one. and if the presence of change was of much certainty as well as movement in the physical world, then, the most important issue is the study of how it is present outwar...

To determine whether motor difficulties documented in Asperger‟s Syndrome (AS) are related to compromised visual abilities, this study examined perception and movement in response to dynamic visual environments. Fourteen males with AS and 16 controls aged 7 to 23 completed measures of motor skills, postural response to optic flow, and visual sensitivity to static form and coherent motion in ran...

BACKGROUND Fetal movement counting is a method used by the mother to quantify her baby's movements, and may prevent adverse pregnancy outcome by a timely evaluation of fetal health when the woman reports decreased fetal movements. We aimed to assess effects of fetal movement counting on identification of fetal pathology and pregnancy outcome. METHODOLOGY In a multicentre, randomized, controll...

Involuntary movements share much of the motor control circuitry used for voluntary movement, yet the two can be easily distinguished. The Kohnstamm phenomenon (where a sustained, hard push produces subsequent involuntary arm raising) is a useful experimental model for exploring differences between voluntary and involuntary movement. Both central and peripheral accounts have been proposed, but l...

Parkinson's disease (PD) results in movement and sensory impairments that can be reduced by familiar music. At present, it is unclear whether the beneficial effects of music are limited to lessening the bradykinesia of whole body movement or whether beneficial effects also extend to skilled movements of PD subjects. This question was addressed in the present study in which control and PD subjec...
