C Fullerene Reduces the Development of Post-Traumatic Dysfunction in Rat Soleus Muscle.

Traumatic skeletal muscle injury is a complex pathology caused by high-energy trauma to muscle tissue. Previously, a positive effect was established when C fullerene was administered against the background of muscle ischemia, mechanical muscle injury, and other muscle dysfunctions, which probably protected the muscle tissue from damage caused by oxidative stress. Using tensiometry and biochemical analysis, the biomechanical parameters of skeletal muscle contraction and biochemical indices of the blood of rats 15 days after traumatic injury of the soleus muscle caused by myocyte destruction by compression were studied.

Gender differences in brain processes during inhibition of manual movements programs.

Background: Motor response suppression can be regarded as an important aspect of the executive control, as a way of changing the behavioral pattern depending on the internal state or external factors.

Purpose: The aim of our study was to examine whether there were differences in the ability of cortical inhibition of triggered motor program (in the context of the Stop-Signal task) between females and males.

Methods: We examined differences in the patterns of event-related EEG synchronization/desynchronization (ERS/ERD) in young volunteers under the conditions of complete inhibition of the triggered motor program of a manual movement.

The Electrical Brain Activity in Men with Different Alpha-Rhythm Characteristics during Manual Movements Executed by the Subdominant Hand.

Background: The ability to control motor actions and flexibly interact with the environment is considered one of the main components of the human brain executive functions. The spontaneous electroencephalogram (EEG) is among the physiological techniques making it possible to formulate a direct estimation of specific features of the activity of the human brain during manual movements.

Purpose: This study is devoted to an investigation of brain processes in men with a high or a low individual α-frequency determined during manual movements executed by the subdominant hand.

Electrical Activity of the Cerebral Cortex during the Low-Frequency Acoustic Stimulation in Women with Different Characteristics of Alpha Rhythm.

Background: Human functional capabilities, to a certain extent, depend on an individual's nervous system. The recording of the spontaneous electroencephalogram (EEG) makes it possible to estimate specific features of the nervous system, and in particular the activity of the human brain.

Purpose: This study is aimed at investigating the brain in women with a high or a low individual α-frequency (ІαF), determined in a quiescent state during low-frequency acoustic stimulation.

Brain processes during the perception of sensory signals in men with high and low output α-frequencies.

Background: Human functional capabilities largely depend upon genetic qualities of person's nervous system. The registration of the spontaneous electroencephalogram (EEG) is among the physiological technigues allowing making a direct estimation of specific features of the nervous system, in particular, the human brain activity.

Purpose: The study is devoted to the investigation of brain processes in men with high and low levels of individual α-frequency determined in a quiescent state during the perception of sensory signals.

Electrical activity of the distal muscles of the hand in men having high or low output alpha-frequencies while performing usual manual movements in response to sensory signals.

Background: Human functional capabilities largely depend upon genetic qualities of person's nervous system. The registration of the spontaneous electroencephalogram (EEG) is among the physiological techniques allowing making a direct estimation of specific features of the nervous system, in particular, the human brain activity.

Purpose: Research is dedicated to the study of distal muscles of the hand, in particular, its functional ability in men with a high or low background EEG α-frequency being in quiescent state or while performing usual manual movements in response to sensory signals.
