Turtle, Joel Dylan (2018-01-23)Over 90% of spinal cord injuries are caused by traumatic accidents and are often associated with secondary tissue damage that can provide a source of continued pain input. Previous work has shown that nociceptive stimulation ...

Bang, Eunyoung (2021-07-08)Age-relate cognitive decline is a devastating disorder often associated with serious neurological disease and neurodegeneration. The increased prevalence of neurological diseases, as a result of the aging population, only ...

Goode, Travis D. (2018-06-22)Anxiety disorders are among the most common and debilitating forms of mental illnesses in society. Through greater understanding of the fundamental mechanisms of anxiety, as well as of the factors that lead to the persistence ...

Lout, Emerson (2020-04-20)Spinal cord injuries (SCI) are commonly accompanied by additional injuries (polytrauma), such as lacerations, bone fractures, and burns. These injuries serve as origins for pain (nociceptive) input to the spinal cord. ...

Liu, Yishi (2012-07-16)The nervous system coordinates a sequence of muscle movements to give rise to animal behaviors. In complex invertebrates or lab-studied vertebrates, due to the large number of cells in their nervous systems and the ...

Lu, Chunchen J (2017-04-24)The activity-dependent regulation and maintenance of the neuromuscular junction, where the chemical synapse between motor neurons and muscle fibers initiating contraction occurs, play a critical role in the formation of ...

Effects of Morphine on Activated Microglia and Macrophages in a Rodent Model of Spinal Cord Injury Terminel, Mabel N (2020-07-10)Opioids are among the most effective and commonly prescribed analgesics for the treatment of acute pain after spinal cord injury (SCI). We have shown, however, that morphine administration in the early phase of SCI undermines ...

Flesch, Marie H. (Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)Electrodermal activity (EDA), an indicator of arousal of the sympathetic nervous system, was investigated as a potential correlate of feeling-of-knowing (FOK) and tip-of-the-tongue (TOT) states. In Experiment 1, skin ...

Identifying the Benefits of Observational Practice in the Acquisition of a Novel Coordination Skill Park, Inchon (2014-08-14)The experiment undertaken was designed to reveal how split attention within an observational learning context influences perception and production processes. The task was producing a bimanual coordination pattern with a ...

Acca, Gillian M (2017-07-10)Sex differences in stress and anxiety disorders are well reported in the clinical population. For instance, women are twice as likely to be diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) compared to men. This difference ...

Strickland, Eric (2013-05-30)Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in a number of devastating consequences, including loss of motor function, paralysis, and neuropathic pain. Concomitant peripheral tissue injury below the lesion site can result in ...
-
Giustino, Thomas Francis (2019-06-04)Early intervention strategies (e.g., psychological debriefing and exposure therapy) are thought to rely on extinction-like mechanisms to reduce pathological fear. These therapies attempt to reduce or prevent the development ...

Campbell, Stephen Michael (Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)Hedonism is not terribly popular as a theory of well-being. And there are good reasons to question whether hedonism even supplies the best account of happiness. Yet hedonism captures something important, and it will be ...

The Relationship Between Blood Pressure, Locomotor Performance, and Hemorrhage After Noxious Input Malamakal, Misty Marie (2017-08-16)Pain input after a spinal cord injury (SCI) has been shown to be detrimental to recovery. Animal models show that noxious input soon after injury leads to an increase in hemorrhage three hours after stimulation and long-term ...

Huie, John Russell (2012-02-14)Previous work has shown that the spinal cord is capable of supporting a simple form of instrumental learning. Subjects that receive controllable shock to an extended hind limb will increase the duration of limb flexion ...
