Corticospinal tract structure and excitability in patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A DTI and TMS study

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2020
Background: Underlying neural factors contribute to poor outcomes following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Neurophysiological adaptations have been identified in corticospinal tract excitability, however limited evidence exists on ...

Phase of beta-frequency tACS over primary motor cortex modulates corticospinal excitability

open access: yesCortex, 2018
The assessment of corticospinal excitability by means of transcranial magnetic stimulation-induced motor evoked potentials is an established diagnostic tool in neurophysiology and a widely used procedure in fundamental brain research.

Modulation of human corticospinal excitability by paired associative stimulation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013
Paired Associative Stimulation (PAS) has come to prominence as a potential therapeutic intervention for the treatment of brain injury/disease, and as an experimental method with which to investigate Hebbian principles of neural plasticity in humans ...

Corticospinal Excitability Modulation During Action Observation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Visualized Experiments, 2013
This study used the transcranial magnetic stimulation/motor evoked potential (TMS/MEP) technique to pinpoint when the automatic tendency to mirror someone else's action becomes anticipatory simulation of a complementary act. TMS was delivered to the left primary motor cortex corresponding to the hand to induce the highest level of MEP activity from the

Resolving equivocal gain modulation of corticospinal excitability

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2023
The ratio between the input and output of neuronal populations, usually referred to as gain modulation, is rhythmically modulated along the oscillatory cycle. Previous research on spinal neurons, however, revealed contradictory findings: both uni- and bimodal patterns of increased responsiveness for synaptic input have been proposed for the oscillatory

Expectancy Induces Dynamic Modulation of Corticospinal Excitability [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 2007
Abstract Behavioral studies using motor preparation paradigms have revealed that increased expectancy of a response signal shortens reaction times (RTs). Neurophysiological data suggest that in such paradigms, not only RT but also neuronal activity in the motor structures involved is modulated by expectancy of behaviorally relevant ...

Corticospinal Excitability in Children with Congenital Hemiparesis [PDF]

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2016
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can be used as an assessment or intervention to evaluate or influence brain activity in children with hemiparetic cerebral palsy (CP) commonly caused by perinatal stroke. This communication report analyzed data from two clinical trials using TMS to assess corticospinal excitability in children and young adults ...

Real-time changes in corticospinal excitability during voluntary contraction with concurrent electrical stimulation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
While previous studies have assessed changes in corticospinal excitability following voluntary contraction coupled with electrical stimulation (ES), we sought to examine, for the first time in the field, real-time changes in corticospinal excitability ...

Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields: A Novel Attractive Therapeutic Opportunity for Neuroprotection After Acute Cerebral Ischemia

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Acute cerebral ischemia is characterized by several pathological processes evolving during time, which contribute to the final tissue damage. Secondary processes, such as prolonged inflammatory response, impaired mitochondrial function and oxidative stress, are responsible for the progression of brain injury to the peri‐infarct area,

Task‐specific strength increases after lower‐limb compound resistance training occurred in the absence of corticospinal changes in vastus lateralis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Neural adaptations subserving strength increases have been shown to be task‐specific, but responses and adaptation to lower‐limb compound exercises such as the squat are commonly assessed in a single‐limb isometric task.
