Dissociative Motor Disorder

open access: yesIndian Journal of Psychological Medicine, 2017
Conversion disorders are more prevalent in childhood and adolescence, especially in females. They are usually associated with stressors and symptoms usually reflect a means to avoid the stressor, or also with a primary and secondary gain. This case report involves a similar situation where a young girl was treated successfully with diazepam ...

Variability and Predictors of Response to Continuous Theta Burst Stimulation: A TMS-EEG Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2018
Continuous theta-burst stimulation (cTBS) is a repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation paradigm reported to decrease the excitability of the stimulated cortical area and which is thought to reflect a form of inhibitory synaptic plasticity.

Motor simulation without motor expertise: enhanced corticospinal excitability in visually experienced dance spectators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The human “mirror-system” is suggested to play a crucial role in action observation and execution, and is characterized by activity in the premotor and parietal cortices during the passive observation of movements.
