Lateral Cord Stimulation Decreases Spastic Electromyographic Spreading: Responses in a Brain-Damaged Pig Preparation

Are Spinocerebellar Tracts Responsible for Epiletogenic Activity Control?

“…In a paper we published several years ago , we tried to demonstrate that that issues of cerebellar activation could be overcome, whenever descending pathways are involved, if the cerebellum is instead indirectly activated through the spinocerebellar tracts. Our results showed that the effect of lateral spinal cord stimulation increased mean thresholds for spastic phenomena in an original animal model .…”
