Cardiac activity impacts cortical motor excitability. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2023 Human cognition and action can be influenced by internal bodily processes such as heartbeats. For instance, somatosensory perception is impaired both during the systolic phase of the cardiac cycle and when heartbeats evoke stronger cortical responses ...

An index to probe cortical excitability
Journal of Neural EngineeringAbstract Objective. Cortical excitability can be defined as the cortex’s responsiveness to incoming stimuli. It can be probed with brain stimulation, either globally and non-invasively, using transcranial magnetic stimulation or locally through direct electrical stimulation of the cortex. Here,

Dopaminergic Impact on Cortical Excitability in Humans
Reviews in the Neurosciences, 2010 Dopamine is a major neuromodulatory agent of the central nervous system. The neurotransmitter has a non-linear dose-dependent effect on cortical excitability and activity, which depends on spontaneous activity, dopamine concentration, and dopaminergic sub-receptors, amongst others.

Bring the pain: wounding reveals a transition from cortical excitability to epithelial excitability in Xenopus embryos [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental BiologyThe cell cortex plays many critical roles, including interpreting and responding to internal and external signals. One behavior which supports a cell’s ability to respond to both internal and externally-derived signaling is cortical excitability, wherein

Post-Movement Beta Synchrony Inhibits Cortical Excitability [PDF]
Brain SciencesBackground/Objectives: This study investigates the relationship between movement-related beta synchrony and primary motor cortex (M1) excitability, focusing on the time-dependent inhibition of movement. Voluntary movement induces beta frequency (13–30 Hz)

Scientific Reports, 2023 Evidence indicates that patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP) have lumbar multifidus muscle (LM) activation deficit which might be caused by changes in cortical excitability.

NeuroImage, 2021 Despite significant interest in the neural underpinnings of behavioral variability, little light has been shed on the cortical mechanism underlying the failure to respond to perceptual-level stimuli.

NeuroImage: Reports, 2022 Background: The relationship between task-related hemodynamic activity and brain excitability is poorly understood in humans as it is technically challenging to combine simultaneously non-invasive brain stimulation and neuroimaging modalities.

Cortical Excitability in Chronic Migraine [PDF]
Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2011 A proportion of episodic migraine patients experiences a progressive increase in attack frequency leading to chronic migraine (CM). The most frequent external factor that leads to headache chronification is medication overuse. The neurobiological bases of headache chronification and of the vicious circle of medication overconsumption are not completely
