The relation between the activity of cells in the motor cortex and static force has been studied extensively. Most studies have concentrated on the relation to the magnitude of force; this relation is more or less monotonic. The slope of the relation, however, shows considerable variation among different studies and seems to be inversely associated ...

Motor Control by Sensory Cortex
Science, 2010By a Whisker Every student learns that the sensory cortex is used for processing sensation and the motor cortex is used for perceiving movement. However, in the real world, this may not always be so neatly arranged. Matyas et al. (p.

Ablation of the Motor Cortex [PDF]
, 1976 Various types of neuropathology can be simulated experimentally by creating surgical lesions in certain areas of the brain. While the motor and sensory deficits that result are related to the specific area of the brain that has been damaged, the ablation of portions of the motor cortex in dogs will not always produce obvious motor deficiencies.

The management of central and peripheral neuropathic pain remains a daunting challenge for pain physicians in general and the functional neurosurgeon in particular. The reasons are manifold. Pharmacological advances in the management of neuropathic pain have been glacial with the only relatively new developments being the use of antiepileptics and ...

Plasticity and Primary Motor Cortex
Annual Review of Neuroscience, 2000One fundamental function of primary motor cortex (MI) is to control voluntary movements. Recent evidence suggests that this role emerges from distributed networks rather than discrete representations and that in adult mammals these networks are capable of modification.

Reorganisation in human motor cortex
Canadian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology, 1995Transcranial magnetic stimulation over the motor cortex was used to construct a map of the effective sites on the scalp from which short-latency electromyogram responses could be evoked in muscles proximal to either an amputation stump (two subjects) or an ischemically anesthetized forearm (two subjects).

Some of the most complex and intriguing behaviours require us, and other animals, to produce or comprehend a sequence of simpler elements. Often the order of the elements is as important as their identity (e.g. in producing or understanding a spoken sentence).

Most of our knowledge about motor cortex is based on studies of primates or cats, but rodents may become increasingly useful subjects for studies in which a number of neurobiological methods are to be used concurrently. The present review is meant to provide a background for such neurobiological investigations, and will focus on three issues: the ...

Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2000
I-waves refer to high-frequency (approximately 600 Hz) repetitive discharge of corticospinal fibers produced by single-pulse stimulation of the motor cortex. First detected in animal preparations, this multiple discharge can also be recorded in humans with epidural electrodes over the spinal cord, and with recently developed noninvasive paired-pulse ...

The aim of this chapter is to review the current significance of motor cortex stimulation (MCS) for either chronic neuropathic pain or non-painful conditions. The epi- or subdural lead implantation over the central sulcus or precentral gyrus is performed in selected patients if conservative treatments, pharmacological therapies and multimodal settings ...
