Role of kinaesthetic motor imagery in mirror-induced visual illusion as intervention in post-stroke rehabilitation

UM Bello, SJ Winser, CCH Chan - Reviews in the Neurosciences, 2020 - degruyter.com
Mirror-induced visual illusion obtained through mirror therapy is widely used to facilitate
motor recovery after stroke. Activation of primary motor cortex (M1) ipsilateral to the moving …

Experimental investigations of control principles of involuntary movement: a comprehensive review of the Kohnstamm phenomenon

J De Havas, H Gomi, P Haggard - Experimental Brain Research, 2017 - Springer
The Kohnstamm phenomenon refers to the observation that if one pushes the arm hard
outwards against a fixed surface for about 30 s, and then moves away from the surface and …

The respective contributions of visual and proprioceptive afferents to the mirror illusion in virtual reality

M Giroux, J Barra, IE Zrelli, PA Barraud, C Cian… - PloS one, 2018 - journals.plos.org

The kinaesthetic mirror illusion: How much does the mirror matter?

M Chancel, C Brun, A Kavounoudias… - Experimental brain …, 2016 - Springer
The reflection of a moving hand in a mirror positioned in the sagittal plane can create an
illusion of symmetrical, bimanual movement. This illusion is implicitly presumed to be of …

Bimanual coordination associated with left-and right-hand dominance: testing the limb assignment and limb dominance hypothesis

S Panzer, D Kennedy, P Leinen, C Pfeifer… - Experimental Brain …, 2021 - Springer
In an experiment conducted by Kennedy et al.(Exp Brain Res 233: 181–195, 2016),

What's left of the mirror illusion when the mirror can no longer be seen? Bilateral integration of proprioceptive afferents!

M Chancel, A Kavounoudias, M Guerraz - Neuroscience, 2017 - Elsevier
Recent data suggest that manipulating the muscle afferents of one arm affects both
ipsilateral and contralateral perceptual estimates. Here, we used the mirror paradigm to …

stimulation delivered through electrodes placed over the right biceps brachii on motor unit …

Anchoring the “floating arm”: Use of proprioceptive and mirror visual feedback from one arm to control involuntary displacement of the other arm

C Brun, M Guerraz - Neuroscience, 2015 - Elsevier
Arm movement control takes advantage of multiple inputs, including those originating from
the contralateral arm. In the mirror paradigm, it has been suggested that control of the …

Motor and sensory disturbances induced by sensorimotor conflicts during passive and active movements in healthy participants

C Brun, M Gagné, CS McCabe, C Mercier - PloS one, 2018 - journals.plos.org
Sensorimotor conflict induces both sensory and motor disturbances, but the specific factors
playing a role in conflict-induced disturbances are still misunderstood. For example, we still …

Contribution of muscle proprioception to limb movement perception and proprioceptive decline with ageing

C Landelle, M Chancel, C Blanchard, M Guerraz… - Current Opinion in …, 2021 - Elsevier
Perception of self-body movements relies on multiple senses among which muscle
