Journal ArticleDOI

Abnormal dorsal premotor-motor inhibition in writer's cramp.

TL;DR: The results suggest that abnormal premotor–motor interactions may play a role in the pathophysiology of focal dystonia, and dPMI was not modulated by task in either group, but was constantly greater in the patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Motor cortex excitability in patients with cerebellar degeneration

TL;DR: M1 excitability prior to movement in an RT task increases abnormally early in cerebellar patients, may reflect compensation for deficient thalamocortical drive, and subthreshold transcranial magnetic stimulation can partially normalize the prolonged RT and abnormal excitability rise in patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Etiological musculo-skeletal factor in focal dystonia in a musician's hand: A case study of the right hand of a guitarist

TL;DR: The case would demonstrate that task‐specific hand dystonias can arise as overcompensations for (peripheral) neuro‐musculoskeletal defects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impaired long-term potentiation–like plasticity of the trigeminal blink reflex circuit in Parkinson's disease

TL;DR: It is concluded that nigrostriatal denervation disrupts LTP‐like plasticity in the trigeminal reflex circuit and reduces the facilitation of the R2 response after the induction protocol.
