Sensory Abnormalities in Focal Hand Dystonia and Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation
It has been proposed that synchronous and convergent afferent input arising from repetitive motor tasks may play an important role in driving the maladaptive cortical plasticity seen in focal hand dystonia (FHD). This hypothesis receives support from several sources. First, it has been reported that in subjects with FHD, paired associative stimulation produces an abnormal increase in corticospi...
متن کاملNon-Invasive Brain Stimulation for Treatment of Focal Hand Dystonia: Update and Future Direction
Focal hand dystonia (FHD) is characterized by excessive and unwanted muscle activation in both the hand and arm resulting in impaired performance in particular tasks. Understanding the pathophysiology of FHD has progressed significantly for several decades and this has led to consideration of other potential therapies such as non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS). A number of studies have been ...
متن کاملTherapeutic Use of Non-invasive Brain Stimulation in Dystonia
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) are non-invasive methods for stimulating cortical neurons that have been increasingly used in the neurology realm and in the neurosciences applied to movement disorders. In addition, these tools have the potential to be delivered as clinically therapeutic approach. Despite several studies supp...
متن کاملNon Invasive Brain Stimulation by Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS): Principles and Applications
Magnetic brain stimulation used as a method of psychological interventions in the treatment of diseases. This method functions used in the treatment of clinical disorder such as speech and movement disorders caused by stroke, tinnitus, Parkinson's disease, nervous tics. Applications in the field of psychological therapy, it is possible to stimulate specific brain area involved in certain mental...
متن کاملNon-invasive Brain Stimulation and Prism Adaptation in Art Constructive Errors of Painting
Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the influence of neglect and the effect of Prism Adaptation (PA) combined with continuous Theta-Burst Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (cTBS) on the art constructive errors of painting rehabilitation of stroke patients with neglect. Methods: Fourteen patients with neglect and art constructive errors of painting secondary to stroke were randomly as...
