Perimenopausal women show modulation of excitatory and inhibitory neuromuscular mechanisms.
2021
Background Menopausal transition exposes women to an early decline in muscle force and motor function. Changes in muscle quality and function, especially in lower limbs, are crucial, as they expose individuals to increased risk of falls. To elucidate some of the related neuromuscular mechanisms, we investigated cortical inhibition and peripheral muscle twitch force potentiation in women during the early and late stages of perimenopause. Methods Participants were 63 women aged 48–55 years categorized as early (EP, n = 25) or late (LP, n = 38) perimenopausal according to serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels and menstrual diaries. EP women had an irregular menstrual cycle and FSH 2…
Replication of herpes simplex virus type 1 and 2 in the medulla of the adrenal gland after vaginal infection of mice.
1996
After vaginal infections of mice with neuroinvasive strains of herpes simplex virus type 1 and 2 (HSV-1, HSV-2) virus replicates in the epithelium of the vagina, in the paravaginal ganglia, in the spinal cord and finally in the brain and in the adrenal glands. However, viral antigens could be demonstrated only in the medulla of the adrenal glands but not in the cortex, as assessed by immunohistochemistry (IHC). HSV could not be isolated from liver, spleen, uterus, and ovaries. This contrasts to the intraperitoneal (i.p) route of infection with replication in different visceral organs including the adrenal gland's cortex.

Motor action execution in reaction-time movements : Magnetoencephalographic study
2019
OBJECTIVE: Reaction-time movements are internally planned in the brain. Presumably, proactive control in reaction-time movements appears as an inhibitory phase preceding movement execution. We identified the brain activity of reaction-time movements in close proximity to movement onset and compared it with similar self-paced voluntary movements without external command. DESIGN: We recorded 18 healthy participants performing reaction-time and self-paced fast index finger abductions with 306-sensor magnetoencephalography and electromyography. Reaction-time movements were performed as responses to cutaneous electrical stimulation delivered on the hand radial nerve area. Motor field and movemen…
Świętowanie na ulicy. Orszak Trzech Króli w zimowym pejzażu miasta
2017
Autorka zainteresowała się formami kolędniczymi, związanymi ze Świętem Trzech Króli (6 stycznia): tradycyjną grupą kolędniczą – Trzej królowie, nowszą – kolędnikami misyjnymi oraz organizowanym od 2009 r. na ulicach wielu miast w Polsce Orszakiem Trzech Króli, czyli oryginalną procesją uliczną. To hałaśliwe wydarzenie uliczne wpływa na odmienny charakter uczestniczenia w religijnym „misterium”: czytelny jest tu aspekt uteatralnienia ceremonii religijnej (przebrani aktorzy pierwszo- i drugoplanowi, rekwizytem powszechnym są papierowe korony królewskie, budowa scen, na których odbywają się koncerty amatorskich i profesjonalnych zespołów). Przemarsz ulicami miasta księży i osób wierzących, nau…
