Altered Proprioceptive Feedback Influences Movement Kinematics in a Lifting Task. 2020

M Pinardi, and L Raiano, and D Formica, and G Di Pino

Movement control process can be considered to take place on at least two different levels: a high, more cognitive level and a low, sensorimotor level. On a high level processing a motor command is planned accordingly to the desired goal and the sensory afference, mainly proprioception, is used to determine the necessary adjustments in order to minimize any discrepancy between predicted and executed action. On a lower level processing, the proprioceptive feedback later employed in high level regulations, is generated by Ia sensory fibers positioned in muscle main proprioceptors: muscle spindles. By entraining the activity of these spindle fibers through 80Hz vibration of triceps distal tendon, we show the intriguing possibility of inducing kinematics adjustments due to negative feedback corrections, during a lifting task.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009068	Movement	The act, process, or result of passing from one place or position to another. It differs from LOCOMOTION in that locomotion is restricted to the passing of the whole body from one place to another, while movement encompasses both locomotion but also a change of the position of the whole body or any of its parts. Movement may be used with reference to humans, vertebrate and invertebrate animals, and microorganisms. Differentiate also from MOTOR ACTIVITY, movement associated with behavior.	Movements
D011434	Proprioception	Sensory functions that transduce stimuli received by proprioceptive receptors in joints, tendons, muscles, and the INNER EAR into neural impulses to be transmitted to the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM. Proprioception provides sense of stationary positions and movements of one's body parts, and is important in maintaining KINESTHESIA and POSTURAL BALANCE.
