What is the functional relevance of reorganization in primary motor cortex after spinal cord injury?

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2019
Motor output maps within primary motor cortex are widely distributed and modified by motor skill learning and neurological injury. Functions that these maps represent after spinal cord injury remain debatable.

Local Differences in Cortical Excitability – A Systematic Mapping Study of the TMS-Evoked N100 Component

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) with simultaneous electroencephalography applied to the primary motor cortex provides two parameters for cortical excitability: motor evoked potentials (MEPs) and TMS-evoked potentials (TEPs).

Regional glucose hypometabolic spread within the primary motor cortex is associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis disease progression: A fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography study

open access: yeseNeurologicalSci, 2017
Objective: Here we investigate the process of neurodegeneration in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The relationship between the cortical field spreading of glucose metabolic decreases in the primary motor cortex (PMC) and the progression of ...

Effects of rTMS conditioning over the fronto-parietal network on motor versus visual attention [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Many studies have shown that visuospatial orienting attention depends on a network of frontal and parietal areas in the right hemisphere. Rushworth et al. [Rushworth, M. F., Krams, M., & Passingham, R. E. The attentional role of the left parietal cortex:

A Causal Role for Primary Motor Cortex in Perception of Observed Actions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
It has been proposed that motor system activity during action observation may be modulated by the kinematics of observed actions. One purpose of this activity during action observation may be to predict the visual consequence of another person's action ...

Difference between the Effects of Peripheral Sensory Nerve Electrical Stimulation on the Excitability of the Primary Motor Cortex: Examination of the Combinations of Stimulus Frequency and Duration

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2022
Peripheral sensory nerve electrical stimulation (PES) excites the primary motor cortex and is expected to improve motor dysfunction post-stroke. However, previous studies have reported a variety of stimulus frequencies and stimulus duration settings, and

The role of the left primary motor cortex in apraxia. [PDF]

open access: yesNeurol Res Pract
Abstract Background Apraxia is a motor-cognitive disorder that primary sensorimotor deficits cannot solely explain. Previous research in stroke patients has focused on damage to the fronto-parietal praxis networks in the left hemisphere (LH) as the cause of apraxic deficits.

Muscle and Movement Representations in the Primary Motor Cortex [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 1999
What aspects of movement are represented in the primary motor cortex (M1): relatively low-level parameters like muscle force, or more abstract parameters like handpath? To examine this issue, the activity of neurons in M1 was recorded in a monkey trained to perform a task that dissociates three major variables of wrist movement: muscle activity ...

Motor Training Increases the Stability of Activation Patterns in the Primary Motor Cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Learning to be skillful is an endowed talent of humans, but neural mechanisms underlying behavioral improvement remain largely unknown. Some studies have reported that the mean magnitude of neural activation is increased after learning, whereas others ...
