Integrated functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) offers advanced insights into how brain activity fluctuates with motor activities. This study explores neuronal activation patterns in the cerebral cortex during active, passive, and imagined wrist movements using these functional imaging techniques. Data were collected from 10 right-handed volunteers performing a motor task using fMRI and fNIRS. fMRI utilized a 3T scanner and a 20-channel head coil, while fNIRS recorded data with a 48-channel device at 765 nm and 855 nm. Analysis focused on key motor and sensory cortices using NIRS-SPM and SPM12, applying a significance threshold of p < 0.05 and a minimum cluster size of 10 voxels for group analysis. Super-threshold voxels were identified with FWE thresholding in SPM12. For activation map extraction we focused on the primary motor cortex, primary somatosensory cortex, somatosensory association cortex, premotor cortex, and supplementary motor cortex. Both fMRI and fNIRS detected activation in the primary motor cortex (M1). The primary somatosensory cortex was found to influence movement direction coding, with smaller activation sizes for upward movements. Combining fNIRS with fMRI provided clearer differentiation of brain activation patterns for wrist movements in various directions and conditions (p < 0.05). This study highlights variations in left motor cortex activity across different movement states. fNIRS proved effective in detecting brain function and showed strong correlation with fMRI results, suggesting it as a viable alternative for those unable to undergo fMRI.","PeriodicalId":12268,"journal":{"name":"Experimental Brain Research","volume":"243 1","pages":"36"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142909467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigated drifts in the horizontal (shear) active force produced by right-footed seated subjects and the effects of force matching by the other foot. Subjects generated constant shear force at 15% and 30% of maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) using one foot. Visual feedback of shear force magnitude was provided for the first 5s, then turned off for 30s. During the 30% MVC task, we observed parallel drops in active shear and vertical force magnitudes leading to consistent drifts in the resultant force magnitude, not in its direction. Force matching by the other foot resulted in significantly lower forces when feedback was available throughout the trial. No feedback was provided for the matching foot. When the matching foot began exerting force, the task foot experienced a notable drop in all force components, with a change in force direction only for the task foot. After this initial drop, the downward drift in the task foot stopped or reversed. Subjects were unaware of these drifts and errors. Our findings suggest that shear force production involves setting a referent coordinate vector, which shows drifts and matching errors, while its direction remains stable. Involvement of the matching foot appears to perturb the neural commands to the task foot, with minor differences observed between feet. The discrepancy between the consistent force drifts and lack of awareness of the drifts indicates a difference between force perception-to-act and perception-to-report.","PeriodicalId":12268,"journal":{"name":"Experimental Brain Research","volume":"243 1","pages":"37"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142909468","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, forced use therapy in humans can improve function of the contralesional paretic hand and increase its use in daily activities, although the ipsilesional hand may remain preferred for fine motor activities. Studies in monkeys have shown that minimal forced use of the contralesional hand, which was the preferred hand prior to brain injury, can produce remarkable recovery of function. Here we tested the hypothesis that long-term forced use of the contralesional hand during the post-lesion period can return it to preferred status. Four rhesus monkeys received tests of hand preference prior to surgical lesions of primary motor cortex, lateral premotor cortex and anterior parietal cortex (F2P2 lesion) contralateral to the preferred hand. Beginning two weeks after the lesion, forced use therapy involving contralateral hand reaches to acquire food targets occurred 3X weekly with at least 300 reaches/session until 24 weeks post-lesion. Despite initial paresis of the contralesional hand, its manipulation skill returned to near pre-lesion levels or higher and all four monkeys returned to a contralesional hand preference late in the post-lesion period. Favorable reorganization of spared cortical and subcortical neural networks may promote recovery of hand function and preference. These results have relevance for the use of extensive forced-use therapy in humans who experience unilateral periRolandic injury to potentially support better recovery of contralesional hand function.","PeriodicalId":12268,"journal":{"name":"Experimental Brain Research","volume":"243 1","pages":"35"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142893092","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previously, subjective-assessments identified SR in vestibular perceptual thresholds, assessed using a standard two alternative (i.e., binary), forced-choice task, when applying noisy Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation (nGVS). However, this required extensive testing of at least 100 binary trials to yield sufficiently precise thresholds at each of several nGVS amplitudes, leading to confounds of fatigue, sleepiness, learning, etc. stalling the study of vestibular SR. To mitigate this, we explore confidence reporting, which via a confidence signal detection (CSD) model may much more efficiently identify SR (i.e., with fewer trials), if SR exists in CSD thresholds. To test this, Y-translation thresholds were tested with 100 trials at each nGVS amplitude (0 or sham, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 mA peak-to-peak). To objectively identify SR, we applied a machine learning classification algorithm trained on simulated datasets. We found significant evidence of SR exhibition using CSD thresholds (p = 0.0025), with six of 10 subjects classified as exhibiting SR. Next, we considered fewer trials, finding the false positive rate of SR identification to be better using CSD thresholds with as few as 50 trials, when compared to 100 binary trials. Applying the CSD model to our subject's data with a subset of their trials found similar classifications of SR exhibition as with 100 binary trials. We demonstrate CSD thresholds exhibit SR, proving a means of better and much more efficiently identifying SR.","PeriodicalId":12268,"journal":{"name":"Experimental Brain Research","volume":"243 1","pages":"34"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142880656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We tested four apparatuses: loudspeakers, headphones, passthrough, (wearing headphones while auditory stimuli come from loudspeakers) and room simulation (externalization via headphones). We quantified reaction time (RT) and accuracy (choosing the correct direction to dodge) from the head movement. We hypothesized that the weight of the headset will slow RT, and that externalization of the auditory stimuli will make it more usable when no visual cues are provided. Interestingly, both hypotheses were refuted. In silent conditions, RT was faster with headphones compared to loudspeakers, but this difference disappeared when auditory stimuli were introduced. Participants used congruent auditory stimuli to improve accuracy but disregarded incongruent auditory stimuli across all apparatuses except for room simulation. In conclusion, this study confirmed that healthy young adults can use congruent auditory stimuli to enhance accuracy and disregard incongruent auditory stimuli such that accuracy is not harmed. RT was either faster or the same with headphones compared to loudspeakers.

Forty (40) healthy young participants (19 males, 25.1 ± 5.6 years) were randomly divided into a group that received nGVS with white (WHITE group) or pink noise (PINK group). Participants performed a cutaneous perceptual threshold detection task followed by 8 trials of quiet standing and eyes closure (60s) with nGVS applied during the last 30s. Balance stabilization was quantified in the ratio of the stimulus versus pre-stimulus Centre of Pressure (CoP) 90% ellipse area, Root Mean Square (RMS) and mean velocity. Cutaneous perceptual threshold was similar across groups. Group analysis confirmed that the mean CoP velocity increased across nGVS intensities, particularly for the PINK group while the other two variables remained unchanged. Single subject analysis indicated that 55% of WHITE and 30% of PINK group participants showed an SR-like response judged by three experts. Results are puzzling with respect to the presence of SR-like response dynamics in young healthy adults and highlight the need for further research using individual calibrated stimulus intensities.

Towards addressing this problem, here we aimed to characterise post-stroke alterations in upper-limb control from a novel perspective to the muscle synergy by applying, for the first time, a computational approach that quantifies diverse types of functional muscle interactions (i.e. functionally-similar (redundant), -complementary (synergistic) and -independent (unique)). From single-trials of a simple forward pointing movement, we extracted networks of functionally diverse muscle interactions from chronic stroke survivors and unimpaired controls, identifying shared and group-specific modules across each interaction type (i.e. redundant, synergistic and unique). Reconciling previous studies, we found evidence for both the concurrent preservation of healthy functional modules post-stroke and muscle network structure alterations underpinned by systemic muscle interaction re-weighting and functional reorganisation across all interaction types. Cluster analysis of stroke survivors revealed two distinct patient subgroups from each interaction type that all distinguished less impaired individuals who were able to adopt novel motor patterns different to unimpaired controls from more severely impaired individuals who did not. Our work here provides a nuanced account of post-stroke functional impairment and, in doing so, paves new avenues towards progressing the clinical use case of muscle synergy analysis.","PeriodicalId":12268,"journal":{"name":"Experimental Brain Research","volume":"243 1","pages":"31"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11663821/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142876525","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this investigation was to tackle the constraints of previous studies and to establish a more comprehensive theoretical framework and practical guidance for safety management. To this end, the phenomenon of workload on mind wandering among drillers during the drilling process was investigated in depth. It focused on drilling site workers, using SART paradigm tasks and EEG devices to track cognitive states under various loads, exploring how they affect mind wandering and EEG mechanisms. Fifty workers participated, observing drilling images to judge accidents. Results showed workload influenced cognitive processes such as mind wandering occurrence, reaction time, accuracy, and brain connectivity. High workload increased reaction time, decreased accuracy, raised mind wandering frequency, altered theta, beta, and gamma waves, and reduced cerebral synchronisation and engagement. Workload affected employees' mind wandering, sensations, focus, and work status, with a positive correlation between workload and mind wandering, potentially harming work performance and safety. Analyzing EEG data helps identify mind wandering and develop intervention measures. In depth research on these features not only helps identify employee mind wandering, but also promotes the development of more precise and personalized intervention measures.","PeriodicalId":12268,"journal":{"name":"Experimental Brain Research","volume":"243 1","pages":"29"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142863773","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our Hx showed evidence of relevancy-based facilitation at either the P50-N70 or the N70-P100. Performance on the learning task was not significantly different between the Hx and No-Hx. Performance on the AB task revealed greater AB magnitude in the Hx compared to the No-Hx. Collectively, these results suggest a compensatory strategy in the Hx that enables them to learn to the same degree as controls.

This study conducted a controlled experiment to explore the impact of NaNO2 and intermittent fasting on the hyperphosphorylation of hippocampal neurofilament (NF) and tau proteins, as well as spatial learning and memory in rats. Through Morris water maze experiments, the spatial learning and memory abilities of rats were assessed, while immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry techniques were employed to evaluate the phosphorylation levels and distribution of NF and tau proteins in the rat hippocampus. NaNO2 was found to induce hyperphosphorylation of hippocampal NF and tau proteins at the Ser396/404 sites, which was accompanied by a decline in spatial learning and memory abilities. Conversely, intermittent fasting ameliorated the NaNO2-induced hyperphosphorylation of hippocampal neurofilaments and the decline in learning and memory abilities, with no discernible effect on hippocampal tau protein hyperphosphorylation.","PeriodicalId":12268,"journal":{"name":"Experimental Brain Research","volume":"243 1","pages":"28"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142853608","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
