Journal ArticleDOI

Postexercise depression of motor evoked potentials: a measure of central nervous system fatigue.

TL;DR: In six normal volunteers, including four of the investigators, the amplitudes of motor evoked potentials elicited by transcranial magnetic stimulation were transiently decreased after exercise, indicating fatigue of motor pathways in the central nervous system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contribution of the ipsilateral motor cortex to recovery after chronic stroke

TL;DR: The effects of transcranial magnetic stimulation on motor performance of the paretic hand of chronic stroke patients and healthy controls were evaluated and it was found that stimulation of the intact hemisphere resulted in delayed simple reaction times (RTs) in the contralateral healthy but not in the ipsilateral pareti hand.
Journal ArticleDOI

Task-related coherence and task-related spectral power changes during sequential finger movements

TL;DR: The present results indicate an active intercommunication between bilateral and mesial central and prefrontal regions which becomes more intense with more complex sequential movements.
Journal ArticleDOI

The non-motor syndrome of primary dystonia: clinical and pathophysiological implications.

TL;DR: Growing evidence indicates an important non-motor component to primary dystonia, including abnormalities in sensory and perceptual functions, as well as neuropsychiatric, cognitive and sleep domains, is indicated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Single–joint rapid arm movements in normal subjects and in patients with motor disorders

TL;DR: The basal ganglia have a role in scaling the size of AG1, reinforcing the voluntary command and inhibiting inappropriate EMG activity, and the cerebellum has arole in timing the voluntary bursts and probably in implementing muscle force phasically.
