Intersegmental Modulation of Lower-Limb Corticospinal Excitability and Inhibition Induced by Upper-Limb Isometric Contractions: A Systematic Review
Gustavo Henrique de Mello Rosa, Gabrielly Santos Pereira, Fernanda da Silva Boni, Marcelo Lourenço da Silva, João Eduardo de Araújo
European Journal of Neuroscience, 2026
Intersegmental neural modulation refers to the influence of voluntary activation of one limb on the excitability and inhibitory balance of remote motor representations. Recent evidence suggests that high‐intensity upper‐limb isometric contractions can transiently enhance corticospinal excitability and modulate intracortical or interhemispheric inhibition of lower‐limb motor areas, yet the consistency of these findings remains unclear. This systematic review synthesized evidence on the effects of upper‐limb isometric contractions on corticospinal excitability and inhibitory mechanisms of lower‐limb motor representations in healthy adults. Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, searches were conducted in PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane CENTRAL. Eligible studies included healthy adults (18–65 years) performing upper‐limb isometric contractions quantified as percentage maximal voluntary contraction (%MVC), with outcomes assessing lower‐limb corticospinal excitability or intracortical/interhemispheric inhibition. Two independent reviewers screened studies, extracted data, and assessed risk of bias. Seventeen studies ( n = 351) met inclusion criteria. Most reported increases in lower‐limb motor evoked potential amplitude during upper‐limb contractions, particularly at intensities ≥ 70% MVC. Reductions in short‐interval intracortical inhibition were common, indicating transient disinhibition of lower‐limb primary motor cortex representations. Findings for interhemispheric inhibition were inconsistent, likely attributable to variability in contraction tasks and transcranial magnetic stimulation parameters. Upper‐limb isometric contractions consistently facilitate lower‐limb corticospinal excitability and reduce intracortical inhibition in healthy adults. Although mechanistic patterns converge, methodological heterogeneity limits confidence in the magnitude of effects. Future studies require standardized experimental protocols and adequate sample sizes to clarify intensity–response relationships and underlying neurophysiological mechanisms.

Gabriella Gonçalves Senno Battaglion, Fernanda da Silva Boni, Kelly Zhang, Gustavo Henrique de Mello Rosa, João Eduardo de Araújo
American Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2026
Objective: To compare evidence on Virtual Reality (VR) and Body Weight–Supported Treadmill Training (BWSTT) for gait rehabilitation in Parkinson’s disease (PD) using a narrative review. Design: A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, PEDro, SciELO, Cochrane, and LILACS through March 2024, following PRISMA guidelines. Randomized controlled trials of VR or BWSTT in PD were included. Systematic reviews were used solely for context. Methodological quality was assessed with PEDro and AMSTAR-2 tools. Results: Fourteen primary studies (nine VR, five BWSTT) with 416 participants with mild-to-moderate PD met eligibility criteria. VR protocols (5–12 weeks) often improved balance, gait speed, and dual-task performance, but differences in immersion, platform, sensory feedback, and task complexity limited direct comparison. BWSTT interventions (4–8 weeks, 20–40% unloading) showed moderate improvements in step length, walking endurance, and balance. No major adverse events were reported. Conclusion: Both VR and BWSTT improve gait and balance in PD through complementary mechanisms. VR offers sensory–cognitive engagement, while BWSTT provides biomechanical support and repetitive practice. Due to protocol heterogeneity, small sample sizes, and the absence of meta-analysis, findings should be interpreted narratively. Combined approaches may be promising, but current evidence is limited.

Journal of Lasers in Medical Sciences, 2025
Introduction: Chronic orthopedic pain is a leading cause of disability worldwide, compromising physical function, independence, and quality of life. While pharmacological treatments are widely used, their prolonged use is often limited by side effects and suboptimal efficacy. Among non-pharmacological approaches, photobiomodulation—particularly low-level laser therapy (LLLT) and high-intensity laser therapy (HILT)—has emerged as a promising strategy due to its analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and regenerative properties. However, evidence regarding its clinical efficacy remains heterogeneous and fragmented. Methods: This systematic review was conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines and based on the PICO framework. Comprehensive searches were performed in PubMed, Embase, Scopus, LILACS, and Cochrane CENTRAL. Eligible studies were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published in English, Spanish, or Portuguese over the past five years, involving adults (≥18 years) with orthopedic pain treated with LLLT or HILT. Outcomes of interest included pain intensity, physical function, and quality of life. Exclusion criteria included non-randomized trials, pediatric populations, and studies that did not isolate the effects of laser therapy. Results: From 59,873 records initially retrieved, eight RCTs met the inclusion criteria. The studies addressed diverse musculoskeletal conditions such as knee osteoarthritis, chronic low back pain, patellofemoral pain syndrome, plantar fasciitis, subacromial impingement, and lateral epicondylalgia. Both LLLT and HILT demonstrated efficacy in reducing pain and enhancing physical function. In several studies, HILT was associated with faster symptomatic improvement. Nevertheless, considerable heterogeneity in laser parameters, treatment protocols, and outcome measures hindered direct comparison and meta-analysis. Conclusion: The current evidence supports the use of both LLLT and HILT as safe and effective adjuncts in the management of orthopedic pain. Future trials should adopt standardized protocols and long-term follow-up to better define clinical guidelines and optimize treatment outcomes.

Jams Journal of Acupuncture and Meridian Studies, 2024
Importance Understanding acupuncture point microenvironments is vital for optimizing treatment efficacy. Evaluating changes in water content at these points can provide further insights into the effects of acupuncture on tissues. Objective This study aimed to measure tissue dielectric constant (TDC) and assess changes in water content, specifically at stomach 36 (ST36, Zusanli) and spleen 6 (SP6, Sanyinjiao) acupuncture points. Methods In a controlled, blinded, randomized trial, 113 healthy volunteers were divided into six groups based on TDC sensor diameters (XS, M, and L): three control groups and three acupuncture groups. They were assessed at three time points: T1, baseline; T2, 20 min post-needle withdrawal; and T3, 40 min post-needle withdrawal. Electrical impedance (EI) was also analyzed. Significance level was set at p < 0.001. Results TDC at ST36 and SP6 significantly decreased with the XS probe at T2 and T3 compared with that at T1 (F8, 452: 54.61). TDC did not significantly vary between T2 and T3 with M and L probes. EI data indicated that the current passage increased in the SP (F2, 226: 39.32) and ST (F2, 226: 37.32) groups during T2 and T3 compared with that during T1 within their respective groups and controls. Conclusions and Relevance: This study demonstrated the efficacy of TDC measurements in detecting water content fluctuations at acupuncture points and their responses to needles. TDC measurements, which were validated against EI, provide valuable insights into acupuncture point microenvironments and thus help optimize treatments.

American Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2021
Supplemental digital content is available in the text. Objective The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of aerobic exercise on individuals who have had a stroke and showed baseline scores lower than the standard scores for the 6-min and 10-meter walk tests. Design Individuals were assigned to groups according to gait performance, defined by the standard values in the 6-min and 10-meter walk tests (standard baseline score and lower baseline score), and brain injury side. Aerobic exercise, 30 mins per day, 2 times a week, for a total of 12 wks. The 6-min and 10-meter walk tests in five assessments: initial, after 4, 8, 12 wks, and 4 wks of follow-up, analyzed by multivariate analysis, with P value of less than 0.05. Results The 6-min walk test data showed an increase in endurance for lower baseline score and left-brain injury, during assessments 4, and follow-up, compared with standard baseline score (F4,84 = 14.64). Lower baseline score showed endurance increase for assessments 2, 3, 4, and follow-up compared with assessment 1 (F4,84 = 7.70). The 10-meter walk test data showed an increase in speed for lower baseline score and left-brain injury, during assessments 3, 4, and follow-up, compared with assessment 1, 4, and follow-up, compared with assessment 2 (F4,84 = 5.33). Conclusions Aerobic exercise increases gait endurance and speed in individuals who have had a stroke, with left-brain injury, and lower baseline score in the 6-min and 10-meter walk tests.
