Journal ArticleDOI
Abnormal associative plasticity of the human motor cortex in writer's cramp.
Angelo Quartarone,Sergio Bagnato,Vincenzo Rizzo,Hartwig R. Siebner,Vincenzo Dattola,Antonio Scalfari,Francesca Morgante,Fortunato Battaglia,Marcello Romano,Paolo Girlanda +9 more
TL;DR: In patients with writer's cramp, the motor system exhibited an abnormal increase in corticospinal excitability and an attenuated reinforcement of intracortical inhibitory circuits that generate the CSP in response to associative stimulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progressive age‐related development of Alzheimer‐like pathology in APP/PS1 mice
Fabrizio Trinchese,Shumin Liu,Shumin Liu,Fortunato Battaglia,Fortunato Battaglia,Sean Walter,Sean Walter,Paul M. Mathews,Paul M. Mathews,Ottavio Arancio +9 more
TL;DR: Interestingly, reduced LTP paralleled plaque appearance and increased Aβ levels and abnormal short‐term memory (working memory) and progression of LTP impairment correlated with the deterioration of working memory, suggesting that percentage of potentiation might be an indicator of the cognitive decline and disease progression in the APP/PS1 mice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcranial current stimulation focality using disc and ring electrode configurations: FEM analysis.
TL;DR: The concentric-ring design may provide an optimized configuration for targeted modulation of superficial cortical neuron soma hyper/depolarizing, at the expense of increased total surface current.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dissociation of the pathways mediating ipsilateral and contralateral motor-evoked potentials in human hand and arm muscles
Ulf Ziemann,Kenji Ishii,Alessandra Borgheresi,Zaneb Yaseen,Fortunato Battaglia,Mark Hallett,Massimo Cincotta,Eric M. Wassermann +7 more
TL;DR: The dissociation of the pathways for ipsilateral and contralateral MEPs indicates that corticofugal motor fibres other than the fast‐conducting crossed corticomotoneuronal system can be activated by TMS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms influencing stimulus-response properties of the human corticospinal system
TL;DR: The results indicate that, out of different parameters of motor system excitability, S-R curves were the most sensitive.
