Journal ArticleDOI
Different ipsilateral representations for distal and proximal movements in the sensorimotor cortex: activation and deactivation patterns.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used whole brain functional magnetic resonance imaging in healthy human subjects to differentiate between contributions from primary and secondary areas during discrete unilateral distal finger and proximal shoulder movements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcranial stimulation of the human frontal eye field by magnetic pulses.
TL;DR: Single transcranial magnetic pulsed stimuli were applied over the cortical area of the putative right frontal eye field (FEF) in 11 healthy subjects and induced significant latency prolongations, which varied from subject to subject.
Journal ArticleDOI
Memory without context: amnesia with confabulations after infarction of the right capsular genu.
TL;DR: Findings indicate that the patient's amnesia was based on an inability to store the context of information acquisition rather than the information itself, indicating that the memory disorder ensued from an inabilityto store the temporal and spatial context of Information Acquisition rather than a failure to store new information.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional organisation of saccades and antisaccades in the frontal lobe in humans: a study with echo planar functional magnetic resonance imaging
René M. Müri,O. Heid,Arto C. Nirkko,Christoph Ozdoba,Jacques Felblinger,Gerhard Schroth,C. W. Hess +6 more
TL;DR: The cortical activation pattern of saccades and antisaccades (versus rest) in the frontal lobe was analysed using an echo planar imaging (EPI) technique in 10 healthy subjects and confirmed the important role of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex for the correct performance of antisaccade obtained by studies in humans with isolated lesions of the prefrontal cortex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hemispheric asymmetry in visuospatial attention assessed with transcranial magnetic stimulation
René M. Müri,R. Bühler,Dörthe Heinemann,Urs Peter Mosimann,Jacques Felblinger,Thomas E. Schlaepfer,C. W. Hess +6 more
TL;DR: Parietal influence on visuospatial attention is mainly controlled by the right lobe since the same stimulation over the left parietal cortex had no significant effect, and there is a vulnerable time window to disturb this cortical process, since dTMS had a significant effect on the percentage of errors in the contralateral visual hemifield only when applied 270 ms after visual stimulus presentation.
