It is important to note that, despite upper motor neuron dysfunction, the Babinski reflex remains the normal response of plantar flexion throughout the individual's life. Clonus may or may not be ...

The result is a slowly progressive weakness associated with upper motor neuron signs, such as spasticity ... the disorder may also have symptoms such as gynecomastia (breast enlargement), testicular ...

Scientists have recently completed the most ambitious effort yet to construct such a map: a complete document of every neuron and every connection in the brain of an adult fruit fly. The research ...

Inconsistent results have been found in these studies, however. This activation likelihood estimation (ALE) meta-analysis was designed to quantitatively integrate changes in brain activity and the ...

or motor neuron diseases, and other diseases those may affect peripheral nerves or peripheral neuropathy as assessed by history, neurologic examination, and electrodiagnosis; (4) other conditions ...

Degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) is a clinical condition of upper motor neuron lesion signs, that is confirmed with ...

In this work, we hypothesized that aging also affects the function of motor neurons in the peripheral sympathetic ganglia. To test this hypothesis, we compared the electrophysiological responses and ...
