PROGNOSTIC VALUE OF MOTOR EVOKED POTENTIALS IN MOTOR FUNCTION RECOVERY OF UPPER LIMB AFTER STROKE [PDF]
Objective: To determine the prognostic value of clinical assessment and motor evoked potentials for upper limb strength and functional recovery after acute stroke, and to establish the possible use of motor evoked potentials in rehabilitation.

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 ...

Myogenic transcranial motor evoked potentials monitoring cannot always predict neurologic outcome after spinal cord ischemia in rats [PDF]
ObjectivesA day after undergoing an operation of the thoracic aorta, a patient showed signs of spastic paraplegia, but on myogenic transcranial motor evoked potential monitoring, the myogenic transcranial motor evoked potentials recorded from the left ...

The effects of cervical transcutaneous spinal direct current stimulation on motor pathways supplying the upper limb in humans. [PDF]
Non-invasive, weak direct current stimulation can induce changes in excitability of underlying neural tissue. Many studies have used transcranial direct current stimulation to induce changes in the brain, however more recently a number of studies have ...

Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring for Endoscopic Endonasal Approaches to the Skull Base: A Technical Guide. [PDF]
Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring during endoscopic, endonasal approaches to the skull base is both feasible and safe. Numerous reports have recently emerged from the literature evaluating the efficacy of different neuromonitoring tests during

Magnetic Motor Evoked Potentials in Ponies [PDF]
Magnetic stimulation of motor pathways was used to effect motor unit action potential recordings from forelimb and hindlimb muscles in unanesthetized ponies. Motor pathway conduction velocities to the forelimb and hindlimb were determined to be 53.8 ± 9.6 m/s‐1and 63.4 ± 8.3 m/s‐1, respectively.

Corticospinal excitability after 5-day Dry Immersion in women
In light of the development of manned astronautics and the increasing participation of women in space flights, the question of female body adaptation to microgravity conditions becomes relevant. Currently, one of the important directions in this issue is

Asymmetrical facilitation of motor-evoked potentials following motor practice [PDF]
Use-dependent facilitation of motor-evoked potentials evoked by transcranial magnetic stimulation with repetition of simple movements has been well established. Motor-evoked potentials were recorded from two intrinsic hand muscles before and after blocks
