Virtual Reality-Induced Cortical Reorganization and Associated Locomotor Recovery in Chronic Stroke An Experimenter-Blind Randomized Study
Sung H. You,Sung Ho Jang,Yun-Hee Kim,Mark Hallett,Sang Ho Ahn,Yong Hyun Kwon,Joong Hwi Kim,Mi Young Lee +7 more
TL;DR: This is the first fMRI study in the literature that provides evidence for neuroplasticity and associated locomotor recovery after VR and suggests that VR could induce cortical reorganization from aberrant ipsilateral to contralateral SMC activation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dextromethorphan decreases the excitability of the human motor cortex
TL;DR: The findings suggest that dextromethorphan can exert a significant suppression of the excitatory drive in the normal human cortex, which may be relevant for its potential therapeutic use in excitotoxicity-related neurologic disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of low-frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation on motor excitability and basic motor behavior
TL;DR: Low-frequency rTMS of M1 transiently depresses motor excitability but this does not affect basic motor behavior, which is relevant for the therapeutic use of low-frequency RTMS in disorders with abnormal cortical excitability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Practice guideline update summary: Botulinum neurotoxin for the treatment of blepharospasm, cervical dystonia, adult spasticity, and headache: Report of the Guideline Development Subcommittee of the American Academy of Neurology
David M. Simpson,Mark Hallett,Eric J. Ashman,Cynthia L. Comella,Mark W. Green,Gary S. Gronseth,Melissa J. Armstrong,David Gloss,Sonja Potrebic,Joseph Jankovic,Barbara P. Karp,Markus Naumann,Yuen T. So,Stuart A. Yablon +13 more
TL;DR: The 2008 AAN guidelines regarding botulinum neurotoxin for blepharospasm, cervical dystonia, headache, and adult spasticity are updated and onaBoNT-A is established as ineffective and should not be offered for episodic migraine and is probably ineffective for chronic tension-type headaches.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasticity of the human motor cortex and recovery from stroke.
TL;DR: By a variety of mechanisms, the human brain is constantly undergoing plastic changes, and knowledge about the physiology of brain plasticity has led to the development of new techniques for rehabilitation.
