Abstract

Because sensation is delayed, real-time movement control requires not just sensing, but also predicting limb position, a function hypothesized for the cerebellum. Such cerebellar predictions could contribute to perception of limb position (i.e., proprioception), particularly when a person actively moves the limb. Here we show that human cerebellar patients have proprioceptive deficits compared with controls during active movement, but not when the arm is moved passively. Furthermore, when healthy subjects move in a force field with unpredictable dynamics, they have active proprioceptive deficits similar to cerebellar patients. Therefore, muscle activity alone is likely insufficient to enhance proprioception and predictability (i.e., an internal model of the body and environment) is important for active movement to benefit proprioception. We conclude that cerebellar patients have an active proprioceptive deficit consistent with disrupted movement prediction rather than an inability to generally enhance peripheral proprioceptive signals during action and suggest that active proprioceptive deficits should be considered a fundamental cerebellar impairment of clinical importance.

  • Cerebellar patients rely more importantly on visual feedback as compared to healthy controls as if they were missing an internal forward model.

    “cerebellar patients rely more importantly on visual feedback as compared to healthy controls as if they were missing an internal forward model (Day et al., 1998; Bhanpuri et al., 2013; Kakei et al., 2019; Tanaka et al., 2020; Zimmet et al., 2020).”

    The Introduction and Discussion report that cerebellar patients lack the improvement in active proprioception seen in controls and interpret this as impaired predictive modeling. But the tasks were performed without vision, so this paper does not establish that patients rely more on visual feedback than controls. The Discussion describes greater reliance on peripheral information, not specifically visual feedback. (LLM, conf=0.87)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
