Human corticospinal excitability evaluated with transcranial magnetic stimulation during different reaction time paradigms.
The aim of this study was to evaluate corticospinal excitability of both hemispheres during the reaction time (RT) using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Nine right-handed subjects performed right and left thumb extensions in simple (SRT), choice (CRT) and go/no-go auditory RT paradigms. TMS, inducing motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) simultaneously in the extensor pollicis brevis muscles ...
متن کاملCorticospinal excitability during painful self-stimulation in humans: a transcranial magnetic stimulation study.
We investigated changes in the corticospinal pattern of activity in healthy volunteers during sustained noxious and non-noxious mechanical stimulation of the first hand digit, resulting from active (self-stimulation) or passive (externally-induced) pressing against a sharp or blunted tip. The results indicate that, in order to press a finger onto a noxious stimulus with the same force generated...
متن کاملThe influence of hand posture on corticospinal excitability during motor imagery: a transcranial magnetic stimulation study.
In order to study the interaction between proprioceptive information and motor imagery, we herein investigate how compatible and incompatible postural signals influence corticospinal excitability during the mental simulation of hand movements. Subjects were asked to imagine themselves joining the tips of the thumb and the little finger while they maintained one of the two following hand posture...

متن کاملVolitional muscle activity paired with transcranial magnetic stimulation increases corticospinal excitability
Studies of activity-dependent stimulation in non-human primates suggest that pairing each instance of volitional muscle activity with immediate intracortical stimulation causes long-term-potentiation-like effects. This technique holds promise for clinical rehabilitation, yet few investigators have tested activity-dependent stimulation in human subjects. In addition, no one has studied activity-...
