The modulatory effect of electrical stimulation on the excitability of the corticospinal tract varies according to the type of muscle contraction being performed

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014
Afferent input caused by electrical stimulation of a peripheral nerve increases corticospinal excitability during voluntary contractions, indicating that proprioceptive sensory input arriving at the cortex plays a fundamental role in modulating ...

Mechanisms for the Age-related Increase in Fatigability of the Knee Extensors in Old and Very Old Adults [PDF]

, 2018
The mechanisms for the age-related increase in fatigability during high-velocity contractions in old and very old adults ({greater than or equal to}80 yrs) are unresolved. Moreover, whether the increased fatigability with advancing age and the underlying

No changes in corticospinal excitability, biochemical markers, and working memory after six weeks of high‐intensity interval training in sedentary males

Physiological Reports, 2019
A single bout of aerobic exercise modulates corticospinal excitability, intracortical circuits, and serum biochemical markers such as brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and insulin‐like growth factor 1 (IGF‐1).

Changes in Magnitude and Variability of Corticospinal Excitability During Rewarded Time-Sensitive Behavior

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2019
Reward expectation and time estimation are important for behavior and affect corticospinal excitability. This study investigated changes in corticospinal excitability during rewarded time-sensitive behavioral tasks.

Preconditioning tDCS facilitates subsequent tDCS effect on skill acquisition in older adults. [PDF]

, 2017
Functional motor declines that often occur with advancing age-including reduced efficacy to learn new skills-can have a substantial impact on the quality of life.

Acute intermittent hypoxia enhances corticospinal synaptic plasticity in humans

eLife, 2018
Acute intermittent hypoxia (AIH) enhances voluntary motor output in humans with central nervous system damage. The neural mechanisms contributing to these beneficial effects are unknown.

Corticospinal Excitability Preceding the Grasping of Emotion-Laden Stimuli

PLoS ONE, 2014
Les théories évolutionnistes postulent que les émotions amènent les organismes à agir. Cette étude a examiné si l'excitabilité corticospinale (ECS) est modulée par la valence émotionnelle d'un stimulus à saisir. Le CSE a été estimé sur la base de l'amplitude des potentiels évoqués moteurs (MEP) suscités par la stimulation magnétique transcrânienne (TMS)

Shaping corticospinal pathways in virtual reality: effects of task complexity and sensory feedback during mirror therapy in neurologically intact individuals

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation
Background Restoration of limb function for individuals with unilateral weakness typically requires volitional muscle control, which is often not present for individuals with severe impairment.
