Pain-motor integration in the primary motor cortex in Parkinson's disease [PDF]
In Parkinson's disease (PD), the influence of chronic pain on motor features has never been investigated. We have recently designed a technique that combines nociceptive system activation by laser stimuli and primary motor cortex (M1) activation through ...
