Aging causes a reorganization of cortical and spinal control of posture
2014
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience
The emerging picture is that the age-related reorganization in motor control during voluntary tasks, characterized by differential modulation of spinal reflexes, greater cortical activation and cortical ...
This review outlines the age-related structural and functional changes at spinal and cortical levels and provides a mechanistic analysis of how such changes may be linked to the behaviorally manifest postural ...
Imaging studies support the idea that cortical and subcortical adaptations play a putative role in improving postural control after balance training. ...

Future Therapeutic Strategies for Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease
2021
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
Whilst there already exist a number of pharmacological (e.g., dopaminergic and beyond dopamine), non-pharmacological (physiotherapy and cueing, cognitive training, and non-invasive brain stimulation) and ...
In this review, we summarise the recent insights into freezing of gait and highlight the strategies that should be considered to improve future treatment. ...
Stimulation of a key cortical modulator confers effects on remote subcortical regions and demonstrates the related neural network with FOG (Mi et al., 2020) . ...
