The group has shown that spinal neurons, during network activity underlying movements, show the similar irregular firing patterns as seen in the cerebral cortex. New approach ...

The research by Theiss et al. on slices of spinal cord taken from rats indicates that reducing persistent sodium current in ventral interneurones converted both steady firing and bursting patterns ...

Firing patterns during BES-induced fictive locomotion. Our previous study showed that the percentage of rhythmic V2a interneurons increases at higher cycle frequencies 26. ... The spinal cord, ...

The nervous system is incredibly complex and begins developing very early on in life, then goes on to be the last one finished. New work has described a pattern of organization among cells that create ...

Spinal cord stimulation systems like Eterna center around a small device that’s implanted ... which spaces out the pulses to mimic the natural rhythm of the brain’s own firing patterns. ...

Study shows pregabalin is superior to placebo in treating neuropathic pain, among the most difficult to treat types of pain in patients with spinal cord injuries.

Scientists from the University of Leicester have hit upon unique forms of spinal nerve activity that shape output of nerve cell networks controlling motor behaviours. The breakthrough in the ...

In reports from the UK and New Zealand, it is noted that the incidence of rugby injuries to the cervical spinal cord has dropped and that the percentage of players injured in the tackle has similarly ...

One device is inserted into the skull and rests above the brain’s surface, decoding patterns involved in walking and transmitting a signal to a second device implanted along the spinal cord ...
