Corticospinal Excitability in Children with Congenital Hemiparesis [PDF]
Brain 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 ...

NeuroImage: 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 ...

Abnormal Corticospinal Excitability in Patients with Disorders of Consciousness [PDF]
Brain Stimulation, 2013 Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has been frequently used to explore changes in the human motor cortex in different conditions, while the extent of motor cortex reorganization in patients in vegetative state (VS) (now known as unresponsive wakefulness syndrome, UWS) and minimally conscious (MCS) states due to severe brain damage remains largely ...

Rapid assessment of corticospinal excitability using transcranial magnetic stimulation [PDF]
, 2016 Human motor system plasticity can be quantified using single pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to measure corticospinal excitability. TMS can be used to produce excitability maps and to examine the stimulus-response (SR) relationship.

Resolving equivocal gain modulation of corticospinal excitability
NeuroImage, 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

Corticospinal Excitability Modulation During Action Observation [PDF]
Journal 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

Influence of age and posture on spinal and corticospinal excitability [PDF]
Experimental Gerontology, 2015 This study investigated the modulation of the excitability of spinal and corticospinal pathways from seated to upright standing across adult lifespan. The input-output relations for the Hoffmann (H) reflex and motor-evoked potential (MEP) were recorded in soleus muscle during seated and upright posture in 40 subjects assigned to either young (range: 19-

Influence of post-stroke fatigue on reaction times and corticospinal excitability during movement preparation [PDF]
, 2021 Objectives Reduced corticospinal excitability at rest is associated with post-stroke fatigue (PSF). However, it is not known if corticospinal excitability prior to a movement is also altered in fatigue which may then influence subsequent behaviour. We

Brain Stimulation, 2020 Background: Neural oscillations reflect rapidly changing brain excitability states. We have demonstrated previously with EEG-triggered transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of human motor cortex that the positive vs. negative peak of the sensorimotor μ-

BMC Anesthesiology, 2022 Background Lots of studies have measured motor evoked potential (MEP) induced by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in anesthetized animals. However, in awake animals, the measurement of TMS-induced MEP is scarce as lack of sufficient restraint.
